Oh what the fuck
Are you serious? Are you kidding me?
It's imploding again
Every time I get close enough
to taste success
I get yanked back and the whiplash
snaps my neck
like a baby bird got kicked in the head
All that I need
is just one day of respite and peace
I'm mouth breathing
open mawed at your righteous
audacity
Presupposing that my life
is so easy
I can handle it. Get away from me.
Why don't you just
Why don't you just
Why don't you just
Why don't you just
I can barely think
I'm shaking too hard to speak
Oh yeah, but I digress
Im waiting for godot
Seeing red, and useless
"Visualize
an image of yourself, a success
in ten years, just learn to love yourself and.."
Stop right there
You know you're as miserable
as anyone else
go sell your snake oil in hell
I can't fucking think
I can't fucking speak
with a belabored moan,
My mental palace is a crumbled brownstone
WaiIting for Godot, seeing red, and useless
I've had enough
My fists akimbo to the sky
The same brick walls
every day until I die
I'm screaming up bile
"I'm not yours to patronize"
Screaming up bile
Waiting for nothing, waiting to die
Waiting to die

Where are your friends
When you need them?
Outlived your usefulness
Now measured in empty bottles
Such a waste
So pitiful
She won't call
She never will
I remember you
When you matter just because you were still new
Stuck in your chair
Hold on to what isn't there
I remember you
When it didn't matter if there was shit to do
Lay next to your sleeping aid
will she think about you today?

I Defy You, Heartman

the story of our lives
in it's cinematic debut
cold open to a scene of our room
there's me believing i deserved you
and there's you
You're still there too
it's a tasteful retelling
of a plot we've all seen
two people connected
seem bound for destiny
the soft focus on our mouths
young lovers memorize all the words
but in the big scene, i'll blank on my lines
as they're screaming cut and raise the house lights up
i'll stare at the ground and know i've missed my chance
years spent preparing the role
now i cannot go home
I cant carry this weight
i cant meet your gaze
