Chandelier by The Van Burens

low hanging
this fruit
high, gangly
not astute
walks face first
into the
chandelier

his temple throbs
he doesn't care
despite the remains of a bulb
trapped in his hair
the only thing that's on his mind
is what's in it
and that's only fear
that's only
fear

it's only fear

he slumps and murmurs
god damn
ambivalence fades
he grabs the dustpan
this was not my ultimate plan
why oh why am i this man?
why oh why can't I just be
a better man

it's only fear

is the mess clear?
just confess dear
why aren't you near?
all i am is what i don't understand
and that's what you left here

it's only fear
i must disown the fear
i will disown the fear
disown your fear
we will disown our fear
