There was once a bird who chirped all day long
She would fill the whole house with her songs
But one day the bird was sucked into the vaccum cleaner
The owner frantickly got the bird out
Then she held it under the rushing water of the faucet
The bird was ok, but she never chirped anymore.
I am that bird...
Once songbird now numb
This world has sucked me out and spit me out
My life has been a hurricane for years
The result of all of this...
The worst feeling in the world, numbness
Its as if I'm just watching my life go by
And I'm not actually living it
Its almost as if...
I don't exist
I'm just a face in nature
Only visible when the sunlight hits just right.
