Safe's off in a mine field
Am I real?
Do I bleed?
Am I a fleeting heat you might feel?

I'm right here, but it's not me
I dropped off
Steered screaming
Stopped dreaming, even stalled grief

Walls deep in a minotaur's den
Sleep's cheaper as a one way
ticket well spent

It's on brand, but the art of war's not
Can't crop out the after creds
Have to press start

Got widgets in the carts
Drip artifacts from cuts
When the going gets dark
The dark hearted get shrunk

A pilot in the heart
Of a large mouthed glass canon
Not a damn help, doc
I am the distraction

Cameras and action
Stream keys and ethernet
Back door
Ope act
The cracked human oubliette

I only get a minor sense
of relief caught
When the fingertips hit
But it's been a bit since we've crossed

Safe's off in a mine field
Am I real?
Do I bleed?
Am I a fleeting heat you might feel?

Gloves off when my mind squeals
I'm personified steel
Pointing inward where it might kill

I'll fight till only I or I's are left
Try to hide the final breath
Held against me if I rest

My breasts hardly benefit the armor class
Plate setting made a break for Mantua that never passed

Nobody asked but I'm the dagger held in love's spot
Simultaneously also venom numbing what's lost

Gloves off when my mind squeals
I'm personified steel
Pointed inward where it might kill

Safe's off in a mine field
Am I real?
Do I bleed?
Am I a fleeting heat you might feel?
