What am I without my charisma?
I dress my ego in charm and nice clothing
Stories meant to show you my depth
with well-timed punchlines and eye contact.
What you see is more than you'll get
because being honest with you isn't worth it.
You are the skeptical crick in my jaw
The hyperkinesia from running my mouth for too long
And I like you less
So I talk more.
I can ramble for hours without listening
I am a test that you're failing,
and you're just measuring tape.
You're a well-timed punchline later.
My tongue is digging holes through my cheeks.
You couldn't fathom the pain that I'm feeling,
but I am desperate to find where the vestibule leads;
You're the sound of an empty room humming.
What am I without my charisma?
There's a stain on the breast of my shirt I'm ignoring.
I talk about me while you're doing your laundry,
and I feel like there's nobody listening.
