Moth Thimble Fulls

"Thimble Fulls"

It eats at you, I know
You just can't let it go
It becomes like the air you breathe
Takes the place of everything you need
And it slowly, slowly
kills you
in inches
and thimble fulls
It tears you apart, I know
I have felt that way, I know
It's in every waking thought
and it's taking you a part
Drowning you slowly
killing you
in inches
and thimble fulls
Just wait, just wait, just wait
'til it's worse
It's breaks, aches and pains
beyond your hurt
And so you'll know in slowly increments
this pain inside you kills
and you will feel it in inches
and thimble fulls of your skin
I know the pain of this
It eats at you, I know
Darling, somehow let this go

"Moth"

I hate that moth
hate it's wings
it's movements
and the strings
it flies upon
I hate that moth
I hate it bad
I want to kill the moth so bad
I hate it's wings
it's colors
and the strings
it flies upon
I hate the moth that gravitates
towards the light
I hate the moth because it flies
I hate the moth, it doesn't die
I hate the moth and it's pearly white
wings
I hate the moth and it's fluttery
it's movements
and the strings
it flies upon
But the moth comes everytime
the light goes on
I want to catch it
become the spider
Let me eat it
I want to end it
I hate the moth so bad, so very bad
It won't go away
everytime the light
...turns on
