You trained for the stare

And I left you to muddle through

And you held your breath

To whatever depth you choose



But if features could mislead issues

And toil away til the sun would set

But to teach you is all conceited

And it could forfeit the choice you made

Make for a better day



To dissolve into it

Tried to cushion if you fall

To take lightly what is

Seeming to be in the know



And lest you forget

How futile the wait has been

Chastised for gain

You forfeited the only thing



And i'm the one who knows
