warmthofrelease Sometimes I feel like I'm
Some sadistic punchline
A practical joke suddenly turned
Cruel and unfunny

Look at all the mistakes I avoided
All those traps I walked around
In lieu of taking chances

I never got anyone pregnant
Probably...
Didn't waste years on a failed marriage
Or a doomed relationship with my parents

I never had to sleep on a bus
Or borrow money to eat
I never had to sacrifice for anything
Not a fucking person not a fucking dream

I flew the fucking coop
Alone
And Christ, it's been quiet

Anything I ever had to love
Were things I kept to myself

Like I dreamed myself to be a waste
And it worked
So,

I laugh_to_keep_from_dying
Because
No one can tell me what to do

I couldn't imagine something so useless
