Survival Mode

At some point you didn’t realize

There was no more fight or flight

We were all in the raft and we had made it

You will look at all of the blue eyes

And blonde smiles

And think that you are still being hunted

They’ll say

Your house is not big enough

You don’t go to the right church

Your purse is out of season

So you turn in on yourself

You turn in

On us

And now

You have a big house

You go to the best church

Your purse is filled with shiny things

You are alone

And that is

what you will have to survive

I didn’t have to beat it

Next
Next

They used to say that I look just like you
