The Canvas from Gospel by Platforms

“Welcome to a place where you don’t belong,” I heard myself say.
“Population: many, and I’m just another one.”
Force myself to turn off any conversation.
You don’t know me, you don’t know pain,
You don’t know anything.

So watch me as I find a place or just a lie to make my home in.
I’m comfortable right here, so let me make it clear that my patience is wearing thin.

I won’t wait for you.
I won’t let you in.

Take me to a place where I can be loved and not abandoned
Where we don’t have to slit our wrists,
We can mend the cuts on our hands
We don’t have to waste our time with useless love and fake affection
We won’t have to search because we’ll have found direction

I won’t wait for you.
I won’t let you in.

But your eraser hit the canvas, I was made good as new.
You picked me off the page, and you said, “Son, I love you.”

You said you were coming back,
So I’m waiting here for you.
