Water As Tears

I can’t abide the water as it flows through tears 
And I can see that it has been cried for years
And I’ve been writing this story
Since before you think you know me
And somehow I can trace the line
Back through webs that I design
To hold the weight of information
And all the ways I get above my station
And into the cloud
And is it a vice to be proud
Because it’s always been my fatal flaw
And in the midst of this thaw
I can see broken pieces of ice
That shatter like glass across my life
And it makes a masterpiece of colour and hue
When the light reflects off those parts of you
That you don’t let anyone see
And I know it’s not just me
That is grappling with the cliff
And a massive what if
Of what could have been
Does everyone have a dream
And if it does not fulfil
Do you lose your will
To survive
All I know things are better alive
Coz I’ve tried dead as hell and a blank slate
Is something I’ve come to hate
As it steals all my flair
But there’s no point lying, I want to be there
As I lie in bed and wish it away
All the things I cannot say
And it comes to my door and then it leaves
And there’s something better than what the mass believes
Because there is a knowing you can touch
And I love it so fucking much
