Mediocrity

by Daniel Ryan Espy

lyrics

Cast off protection
Assassinated, befell
Without direction
Like cracks along a white shell
Forget detection
It’s too late to pretend how
Like an infection
It burrows through this thought now
Feeling heartbeats
Cripple to the crutch of my crown
Mellifluent
Watch the grey wash away from the inside out

Peel the regal from membrane
Slowly resembles cellophane
So lucid and plain
And so certain to its own decay

Consummate and fold this into a sigh and a laugh
Spit out and mold this into a sigh and a laugh
Will feels for itself
Will heals for its health

Keep flapping for the wings inside this nest
