Corpse and wood

You swore you could see right through my coffee cup littered floorboard
Had worn that aesthetic before you got bored

And you bet its so petty
Like being spanked as a child
Go on "its a flawed system of justified abuse"
When you have a child, you know what youll do

While i think i should be less sensitive
Before i leave in a tangent
Say more than i should on the subject
It is always more of me than i should have shared
Fuck the boys who are loose with their words and crowned sensitive
While i am better off dismissive

I had never spoken up to you or anyone with such confidence
Yet It still came out as whimpering, helpless softness
But you let me finish
When I should have just steeped in the air of injustice 
Spared the awkward silence 

But "i grew up from a humble background"
And my parents owned a home on a street with grass that buried my feet
Shame by the time i was 9
I had felt the bloody nose of defeat

you are lying too
As you are prying through
Some feigned idea of understanding
Guessing childhood traumas
Like its a game you're landing

It is digging up graves for the haunted
So i can reface everything i was told you wanted
Your rootless, divine ignorance makes me jealous
When you say such beautiful things
I disregard
you are exaggerating me
And grasping at strings
To make me blush
Everything you guess is a flush
And everything you said you wanted when you were getting to know me
Caught me up and made me weak
Only for this honesty to change what you think
