Pity is One Hell of a Drug

I'm laying down my hands
For I can no longer leave them raised
It's as tiring as it is pointless
You fear a breakdown and loneliness
I embrace them
That's the difference between us
Not that I'm better for it
Both are our weaknesses
I've been trying to catch my breath
Ever since I laid witness
To the train wreck that is you
Not that I'm any better
But it takes one to know one
And when wrecks like ours meet
It's cataclysmic
Rehabilitation is a stone throw away
But I just want to relax
And relapse
Into my narcissism
But for now
I'm releasing my breath
For the only thing I want to hold
is you.
