soft glow 02:11
i hate how the morning looks coming over top of the place im stuck 'cause the light is soft + the paths are quiet, it almost feels like i don't despise it but i do, i'm still not in love with you, luke, what's the point of swimming, i float when i lay still
2.
money sink 00:48
throw all my money down the sink until it sticks, clogs up a flood and now i'm drowning but im rich, at least, that's right, i think, i dwell uncomfortably between debt and suicide, i don't worry 'bout my family, i don't worry 'bout my pride, i don't worry 'bout a thing yeah i dont really try to think, maybe i should learn a trade so i can fix my fuckin' sink, god damn.

i'm sorry you were right, it turns out that i don't have time, to do the things i like, so i won't even try, spiders moved into my bike seat, i don't have the heart to post, the eviction note i wrote, so i'll leave them alone, besides it's kind of nice, i don't ride my bike.

i want to drown, i think it would feel nice, if i could kick the overwhelming fear of pain and drugs i guess that i'd be fine, to fill myself with salt and float into the darkness weighted down with all the worthlessness i host, i wanna drown, but in a normal way? i want the lights to flicker out i want the noise to go away is that so bad? is it really all that weird, i just want some peace and quiet do i have to say it? give it to me sinking kicking screaming maybe contributing something am i breathing am i dreaming, oh take a minute try your breathing by the door, look outside decide to turn around and lay down on the floor.

Crocodile Princess in her reptilian best, wanders through the swamp to find a magic place to rest, i need you, get off the goddamn couch, you're helping no one out when your moods that sour, i fuckin need you Crocodile Princess in their scaley fucking best, i need you, wandering through swamps to find a magic place to rest, i need you, open your goddamn eyes and lift a fuckin finger for once in your life, i need you set yourself up to fail, how did you get this far with a heart so frail? cut it out. cut it out. cut it out cutitout.

about

every artistic step i make feels selfish and other daunting thoughts put to musical paper for you to peruse.
