my most admirable traits always seem to get me bogged down and cause trouble. two months ago i had never been so sure about any one thing. yet today i'm sure of absolutely nothing besides that the sun will rise again tomorrow.

my point of view has always been skewed
from my little nook under this giant tree of greed
you took and took and took,
yet you are not to blame,
i gave and gave and gave.

i lost my way while tripping over my own words
i just wanted
to tell you how sorry i was,
to spell out just how far i have strayed from my goals.
my morals have gone to shit
and my mind is close behind.

now i am found taking cover under this sapling
with leaves of the purest green.
i do not deserve praise for the things i have done,
yet even if the praise was deserved you would fail to give it.
you see,
you don't deserve me,
i don't deserve you.
