You won’t find me
Condescending at your closed door
You won’t hear how I feel
Say you’ve been there before

The holiday’s the hardest time
To fill in all the blanks
And you don’t need anyone
To show you those mistakes

Wrap yourself up
In only math of our world
Fill up the holes
In your full heart with details

For all the riddles solved
And every puzzle you complete
Can’t seem to find the pieces
To the heart that beats

You’ll master every task
But always by the book
Then log it in your past
With risks that you once took

They left you then
They’ll hurt you now
Can’t get too close to you
Or you will cut them down

And any fool can play
I’ll raise the stakes
With another turn
We risk, we roll, we burn

At arms length
You never get hit
Too much to gamble
When you let someone in

My true friend I’m spewing
And only one more positive
I just might spill some notable insight
I didn’t think before I purged

So here I am attempting to
Unlock your closed door
I wouldn’t break it down
’Cause you’d be gone for sure

You might say something nice of me
And send it in a card
Or under whiskey breath
Slur kind words at the bar

And you’re sinking me
While you stay afloat
In the tank you built
