Excuse me while I
Swallow little red pills
And eat manna off my grave
Yellow streams in the going on
The going on of that strange sound

I forget that they have feelings
It's just so selfish, selfish
I don't need him anymore
He keeps grabbing at the dust

The author's comments:
A moment of officially wrenching myself away from something that was pulling me down. It confronted me and I decided I did not need to be unhappy because of it anymore. So excuse me.
