Paperweights and Coffee Stains

My wallet
 It's only getting lighter
 I'll keep it folded for now
 It's a paper weight
 And I'd love to say it's easier to move,
 To breathe, to walk
 So much weight has been lifted though
 Armor holds it's value
 And I'm always awaiting my cue
 I'm always forgetting lines
 Say dreams destroy us briefly
 Scream like the frustrated
 They hide behind the desks
 And they're being held captive
 Strangled by the phone lines
 Spilling coffee on their best shirt
 Lost myself in my subconscious, my old habits
 Chewed my nails into rigid saw blades
 I'll clock out one more time,
 Keep my stomach from my throat
 Empty both these cluttered pockets to scour for change
 And I'm always awaiting my cue
 I'm always forgetting lines
 Say dreams destroy us briefly
 Scream like the frustrated
 They hide behind the desks
 And they're being held captive
 Strangled by the phone lines
 Spilling coffee on their best shirt
 My wallet
 It's only getting lighter
 I'll keep it folded for now
 It's a paper weight
 And I'd love to say it's easier to move,
 To breathe, to walk
 So much weight has been lifted though
 Armor holds it's value
 And I'm always awaiting my cue
 I'm always forgetting lines
 Say dreams destroy us briefly
 Scream like the frustrated
 They hide behind the desks
 And they're being held captive
 Strangled by the phone lines
 Spilling coffee on their best shirt
