hey jude

you got your wish
your message rang loud 
never quite enough 
because i’m not enough for myself 

the truth felt so deeply 
down into my bones 
you’ve reaffirmed that 
the emperor has no clothes 

and i’m sad to say
you’ll be no happier for it 
the mighty have fallen 
to the drugs that you worship

the bond you bent 
bent till it broke
snapped from the pressure 
of an overdose 

names change
lies come all the same 
no value in truth
depression lay in wait

nothing about you was ever real
expectations be damned
it was just a fuck though
a one-night stand
