Metamorphosis

(116)

I’m slowly becoming a functioning human
I’ve hopped in the oven to get fully baked
Going in circles is no way to cycle
My life is a yard, the leaves need to be raked
I’m slowly becoming a person who knows how
to think without spiraling out of control
To reclaim my past and look out at my future
’stead of spending my time hiding out in my hole
I’m slowly becoming, so slowly becoming
A long, lonely tune is this life that I’m humming
