A Certain Kind of Full That Leaves sometihng to be desired

A Poem by Exit Only
"

...

"
we dance on rooftops for the ones that call us down
we sing on ledges to those who ask "when did you stop being yourself"
and I can't answer
not even try
i can't imagine
or even lie
the light i had is gone
swallowed by the emptiness inside]

a perfect picture
you're holding 
on to the image with tears in your eyes 
it's overwhelming
the way we think we are
who do you think you are?

we play with fire to try to burn ourselves down
we fan the flames in hopes of finding solace from ourselves
do you feel better now?
are you awake?
I need something
to set me straight
i fell off the way we came
now i hate what i became

a broken picture
i'm holding
onto the memories the knife pressed on my skin
it's overwhelming
the way we think we are
the way we think we can 
Who the f**k do i think i am?
