A Longing For Apathy

Crop, v.: To cut off or remove
the head. That's what
I'd like to do to you

I'm tired of hating you. I want to be apathetic.

So I'll watch your life in pictures like I used to watch you sleep
And I'll feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe
And I'll keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are

Stay where you are. Leave me alone.

You are an expert at sorry and keeping lines blurry
Never impressed by me acing your tests

I'm exhausted from trying to be what you want me to be.

Come on, come on don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out

So spread your lies about me, I don't care anymore.

You have pointed out my flaws again
As if I don't already see them

Just leave me alone.
