Bad joke from Spurious forms by Elea Calvet

I traded my dreams
For quietude
Didn't see it coming
Didn't expect it to

Didn't know the feeling
Didn't know that you
Could break my heart
So completely
I'd forget to be me
I'd become somebody

Somebody else
A stranger a stranger
Dressed in my clothes
Wearing my eyes my teeth and my toes
Smiling my smile
Once in a while

It's the last time I swear every last time again
It's the end it begins like a bad joke you tell
It's the last time I swear this time I swear it is
Skipping heartbeats some more like I don't need to live

I traded my dreams
I lost them in you
I find myself wondering how I lost myself to
The passing of time taking time not to feel
And letting it last

I traded my dreams
You traded me too
Guess I saw it coming
But didn't expect to
Didn't know the feeling
Didn't know how to
Just carry on

Like somebody
Untethered and set free
Unbroken and worthy
Somebody whole
Another another
Blood flesh and bone
Somebody well someone else after all
Smiling my smile
Once in a while

Sinking ships
Draw the sails
Light the lights
It's a Hail Mary

Sinking ships
Draw the sails
Light the lights
It's a Hail Mary

It's the last time I swear every last time again
It's the end it begins like a bad joke you tell
It's the last time I swear this time I swear it is
Skipping heartbeats some more like I don't need to live

It's the last time I swear every last time again
It's the end it begins like a bad joke you tell
It's the last time I swear this time I swear it is
Skipping heartbeats some more like I don't need to live

I don't need to live
Don't I need to live
I need to live
