Another Disconnection

I don’t submit to any religion
Never had much time for faith
No smiling masks to hide behind
Or subterfuge for the pain

All I have is my heart
Because I don’t believe in my soul
Another disconnection, babe
Another fucking hole

I know it makes you feel better
Pretending they’re in heaven holding hands
But I don’t think like you
I’m sorry
I hope you understand

I will deal with this
All of this
In my own way
Just not today

Quit asking me if I’m okay
Currently
I’m not
