Why are you hitting yourself
Hitting yourself
Hitting yourself
Why you keep hitting yourself
A sordid little game
That adolescents play
Not children
Because children are innocent and sweet
But usually someone a little bit older
The wannabe bully on the bus ride home
Would grab your own arm and slap your own face with it
And say
Why are you hitting yourself
Hitting yourself
Hitting yourself
Why you keep hitting yourself
Sometimes I find I am stuck in a loop
Of nonsensical drama
And invisible moving goal post hoops to jump through
And I felt like a dummy yesterday
With an unidentified demon
Having his way with me
Torturing me with an unrelenting update of autocorrect
I’m a wreck today
And just want to let everything go
Throw everything I own in the River of Timelessness
And watch it disappear on its descending twisted route to the sea
And quit letting people hit myself
With me
And also….quit hitting myself
