Nobody New (The Marías cover)

I feel a troubling opacity in my brain,
Reality’s a smudge, a waterlogged refrain.
Language slips like sand through broken hands,
Meaning pools in puddles where nothing stands.

I look it up again—"illegible," does it mean
The letters bleed like rain on a dirty screen?
Hot dogs, hot yoga, Hamas in my head,
The posters whisper names of the nearly dead.

I’m losing it, I’m losing it,
The words dissolve like gasoline.
Pink foam bursts between the cracks,
A melted rainbow—fading fast.

The day after the world cracked in two,
My thoughts got stuck like chewed-up glue.
Jia Tolentino on the subway wall,
Or just the dates I can’t recall?

Foggy white drizzle, static in my veins,
Splintered wood and hollow frames.
If I could speak, would you even hear?
Or just the silence, sharp and clear?

I’m losing it, I’m losing it…
The words dissolve like gasoline…
