it’s coming soon, this fall I’m about
to take

any moment i could cut the strings and
drop miles down; any moment now, my
heart will explode at your feet

and the true meaning of helplessness is
when you think the danger’s gone, but
the entire time, it’s been nipping at your
heels, biting at your tongue, threatening

to cut the strings

maybe I’m a masochist
maybe I’m cursed

but I can’t get rid of you

and still the ground approaches
