coalesce
grain of salt
So shallow, not even an infant Could drown within this compassion But I feel as if I've drowned just the same But rather from my ignorance That unconditional love might exist  I forgot the numbness, I forgot the frustration That makes up my daily routine of just getting by I am just barely getting by emotionally Judgment, disappointment, a lack of patience for me This is not security but such a pretty package  The guise is broken as the truth rears it's ugly head unto me A drunken soul, I'm conscious again, I've weakened from my stupor For the last time, so content caressed in rejection For it's all that love has ever led to once again  The dying man lays down the law for this peon It's his last grasp at control, a control that he lost In infidelity from today, to you I'm dead As an order accepting son, your searching and searching But your family isn't at the bottom of any bottle  You're smoking us away, you're choking on your own No place to hide other than my tears, they still give me away Do all things end like this? Must all things end like this? So shallow, I take everything with a grain of salt
