Understand

I guess I just don’t have it in me
to make you understand
The words aren’t worth their weight
or maybe you just don’t get me
like I believed
Not that it means a damn thing either way
I I don’t know what I thought I wanted
I know this isn’t it
but again, not like it matters
everything’s beyond my changing
and I just have to roll with it
off the edge, into the pit
and when I get done falling
it’s up to me somehow
to pick up all the pieces
from another fallen venture
get myself together
and get back to the start
