You brush away the cobwebs and see something
That you just never wanted to see.
Failed, delusional, saddened by everything.
Hidden away in a corner,
Sleeping on a pile of blankets,
No bed for my weary head,
Spiders “cobbing” their webs around me.
Even they forgot I was real.
You silently let me slip from your mind,
You allowed yourself to forget about me
Even though you said that wouldn't happen.
I believe in more lies than truths
Because that is all that's ever told to me.
My corner is my world,
My blankets are stained with tears.
You said you'd pick me up
But you just let me down.
All I have are the thick black spiders
That eat their prey over my head.
I don't get up anymore,
I'm better off lying here.
There isn't anything that needs to be seen,
At least not by me.
I don't need to eat,
I'll waste away on my own.
I'm not looking for pity,
I've given myself enough of that.
Yeah, it ain't fair, life isn't fair.
You cannot subdue me now,
I'd rather you continue to ignore me forever.
Back when I was young and obsessed with dinosaurs,
There was nothing keeping you from me.
But now I'm as forgotten as an old toy.
All I have are the wonderful weaved webs
That the spiders have created
In order to capture my attention.
