Fell down again
Scraped my knee twice
The first was a fluke, and
The second an asking price
All of the towels I had wrung
All for a body dry
Fell on the umbra
Eclipsed by self sacrifice
I don't, I don't mind
I don't, I don't mind
Peeling the orange skin
Counting the slices
End up with less than ten
End up with my own devices
Don't know how to treat myself
When I know no ones watching
Every thought is for someone else
Every thought is exhsausing
And I
I don't, I don't mind
I don't, I don't mind
Solving equations
To problems I made
I'm checking my work back
And fanning out flames
Don't know how to stay still
Every move calculated
I don't want to lose this
Every move dissipated
I hope this is worth it, being the thing that I've hated
Looking up blindly for divine compensation
I wish I would try less to mask the starvation
Hungry for attention, I'm usually left waiting
Pretend I don't mind it, avoid acuasions
I lie to myself with some false affirmations
Created a monster, employed it, and paid it
It's handled in silence, the deal's consummated
And I
I don't, I don't mind
I don't, I don't mind
I don't, I don't mind
I don't
