my mother is writing a book
it's making me sick
every time i see a page sitting around
i have to read it
it goes like this:
“if i could go back when he was younger
i would still read his diary
he was different than the other two
he rebelled
and if i hadn't know about these horrible things
he was planning to do
who knows what could have happened?”
and i want to shout
YOU WEREN'T THERE ALL THE TIME
you couldn't have been
and if he wanted to drink / f*ck / smoke weed
he would've found a way
and so would i
remember my first girlfriend?
her mom would leave us alone for hours
but we never had sex
i wouldn't
not yet
but we came close many times
and one night she had some wine
but i never took a sip
i wouldn't
not yet

stuck

no one is older although we have grown
no one is saving your soul
no one can dream your dreams
go dream your own
it's all the same thing when you break it down
everyone's stuck in their own little town
so if i'm stuck here i'm glad that i'm stuck here with you
and i don't care what we do
something else is what we're always waiting for
not anymore

what do you shadows say for yourselves?
what do you gotta say?
sit up and rip into me one more time
till i'm little and can't get out of bed
if you don't have a word that's nice to speak
you should save it
cuz i don't wanna know

taste of ground
03:51

bit off a bit of black
taste the taste of ground
lit up a heart attack
a vine / a sign / a sound
a clue to glue the wound
a check / a call / a care
to bleed internally
a guess / a game / a dare
I can't verbalize
so load us up
below a cup is full
serene / surreal / surround
present the price of all
arrive / alive / abound
I can't verbalize
so load us up
something to chew on

old repairs

holiday and we're gone away
it's all i can say as i throw it away
under stairs with old repairs
on a dare i will throw it away
throw it away and i'm going to leave you alone
for a long time
i'm gonna leave
all you do when i'm turning blue
and i crawl back to you
is throw it away
on my back from your last attack
crawling back and i'll throw it away
melody is floating in the air
when you're around
something is always
causing me to want to sit and stare
at the ground
