Fault Lines

I'm stuck here only because
I don't know where to go
and if I had what I wanted
would I even know
and would all I've dreamed of
swiftly come and go
leaving me to wonder
why I'd never known

I turn the page
but everything's the same
I just can't change
this faulty view today
I'll never change

faulty eyes
battered sight
I know someday
I'll be the one that's right

I wait here only because
I have nowhere to go
and if I knew what I wanted
could I even come close
does everything just fall apart
I don't even know where to start

tear off the page
it's useless to remain
I am a vessel
in which nothing is contained
I am a victim
of my unrelenting ways
I am the broken platter
no one wants to save

regretful matters
repeat over

faltered sight
full of fright
staring outward
but looking only inside

fault lies in my
faulty eyes
