Thesis

(albüm: Monument - 2020)

You found a chemical seatbelt
For the loneliness we felt
You built an emptiness headrest
And you told me it would be best
If I leave and don't contact
So we wrote up a contract

No lovers
There's no lovers here
There's nothing to see here
Just bones

I heard the loneliness leaving
And the metaphors bleeding
Felt the words turn to cliché
As I repeat the things we say
And it's an elegant thesis
Yeah, the structure is decent
But it lacks catachresis
And the words drain to meaning
And I fear I won't feel it
And well, you know you don't need this
Right now
All I ask

There's no lovers here
There's nothing to hear
Just words
Just words
Just words
