All I Hate is Me

from Exhilaration of Exile by Memory Mines

/

lyrics

Exhibit A:
Why let me be so selfish? Why let me be so self indulgent? I can see the whole world, I can make great things, I can have the perfect job, house, family, car, musical arrangement, book idea, talent, love, but I will never be filled. Because it's not about what I want. No, it's not about me. Because as exhilarating as exile can be, if I want to be full then it needs to be more than me.


Exhibit B:
Be quiet me. I’m sick of hearing your voice. Gaze averts from reflection. Focus on the positive. Happy thoughts. Hold breath to hear quiet. Quiet lost in blood ringing. Break surface of apathy. Gasp for air. Lose desire to wade. Sink. Join circle with sleeping whales. Murmurs of the events of the day. Empty conversations. Short greetings and farewells. Limbo relations. Potential energy can’t catch a break. Sick to stomach from imagining existence from other people’s perspectives. Need a drink. Need a walk. Don’t do either. Think self to sleep. Anything to not hear voice for the rest of today.
