Upside Down

Folder: 
2018

Did you think you could

swing me back

on a tidal wave

did you think I would

be so lonely

that something

was better than nothing

 

I just want to

turn the world

upside down

 

Did you think you could

pull all the strings

say all the words

to make me dissolve

I’m coated in armor now

I have a hand to hold

 

I just want to

make you write

I’m more than mine

 

Did you think you could

pull the scared

out of all the alleys,

make me into a mannequin

to post all your lonely

upside

downs

 

I am walking

I am searching

there’s too many things

I haven’t seen

 

Did you think you could

laugh till I was silent

no, where I am now

I make sound that’s

more than sound

 

I’m just waiting to

turn the world

upside down
