Heads Down, Thumbs Up - Banquets

Over silver linings, past the broken beds

I never fell for the fashion drugs, or the fashion friends

To be safe and quiet, to revolve and wait

I could clear the air, but with which words should I say?

I’ve had the petty and the pretty one night stands

When you come to wake, you realize

You’re less than what you’ve been

So cover me

Have you found yourself lonely, or just a little out of reach

Keep walking over, and over me

It’s all heads down and all thumbs up

I followed steps to grieving.

I stopped at 2

I chose gone for good, without you

Better off as a symptom, with the boundaries too

I’ve stopped checking up and looking over you

Keep it quiet

Keep it hush

Well known secrets

Shared too much
