Even when I think there’s nothing
left you find a way to drain
another drop of blood
No stone unturned
no box unopened
no corner left untouched as you keep digging
for more that you expect me
to just give up, hand over
and still have enough to carry on
but I don’t have it left I’m scarred and broken
I’m not sure I ever had it
but I’ve always done what I can
and now that I can’t do as much
the expectations set so high
I can’t even see the horizon anymore
and I feel as though I’m drowning
but what I really am is bleeding out
and there goes my last drop
right through your fingers into the dirt
where I belong…
