too quick with the smoothness loose grip induced rude trip diluted senses; fragmented sentence a swift rinse of purpose, wordless and worthless, i seem to b frequently noticing a new face in the plaster how many others may end up appearing after? slipping thru the day with no faith in this plane blurring all the lines between waking life & dreams {istill c u} unhinged weekends forgotten supplements do u know what day it is? forgotten weekends out of supplements it's been like this ever since pockets filled with applesauce socks itch, guess im takin’ a loss baked off the moss fuck it, gin on the rocks brain unlocked called off to open the box got caught mobbin off with some toxic habits in the hatchback cuttin' the slack with something that reduces the storage in my head woke up confused this morning again iswore the floor & bed looked more slanted than they really did before the environment shifted and morphed into a plastic bin frequently forgetting what anything ever means ever meant seems to be that all of this could not possibly exist within the same frequency (unhinged weekends forgotten supplements) do u know the coordinates? (forgotten weekends out of supplements) it's been like this ever since

ifeel like im too fucking sensitive to exist throwing a fit over shit tht isnt important ive wanted to die since i was a kid wishing for something to lift me out of lamenting just lookin for a lift or acknowledgment “ya gotta toughen Up and b a real man keep it all in a bottle sealed” what if the bottle breaks ? or gets shaken Up? somethings bound to give “cover the shards real quick if no one sees, it couldnt b only the honest get caught” where did integrity run off to? hiding behind ur pride? might wanna stop shoving shit under the couch “cheat ur way up the ranks relationships are leverage leave em to clean ur mess as u prey on the next” sounds like compensation opportunistic abuse vacant eyes too focused on fame and fortune our existence could progress past aimless competition if statistics no longer determined worth our feelings should never b treated like a burden or inconvenience she says: “im not youre fucking therapist please get a grip someone to fix never was on my bucket list we cant both be missing the same thing admitting you’re sick and in need is just the beginning my love” “give it Up ya gotta toughen Up” goddamnit not this again ill keep working on it but i cant abandon ship yet “ooo now thats more like it love to see some stubbornness tho wasted on emotions rather than promotions” does treasure have to b tangible? is mutiny truly necessary to move forth? we know our vessels are quite fragile “dip outta this storm, back into the loop u’ve started to drift off course scattered scrolls may blow away” man fuck the loop i used to prefer routine over change until it sealed my brain in a bag patterns are dangerous they hide ur puzzle pieces forever incomplete no closer to closure (give it Up) (ur turn) let it out dont let it drown throw it Up dont hold it down tend to the cracks before they expand and submit to the ocean air too scared, out of here in a hurry muffled laughter, heading into the abyss feelings are never a burden or inconvenience harmless personal taste should not instigate we may find a better spot if we wander off the grid so whats the move? flick tht switch, wait wrong one word ill try to memorize which one it is u know im still opening the wrong cabinets we’re NOT too fucking sensitive to exist iSay its a gift for us seekers to connect so deeply tho its easy to sit and ignore everything when you’re privileged, indifferent, hoarding more than u need im probably too fucking out of it to make sense im sorry but it's all just absolute most pointless wont b surprised if this sounds pretentious i mustve just skimmed the surface, sipped too much absinthe

Sunset Us Up 04:11
once we leave they'll catch on if we set like the sun on a partly cloudy day behind a southwestern mountain range ingesting the spectrum infesting the vessel ingest infest ingestinfest confess the reaper is on our tail there will come a day we dont return from the trail accepting of fate? or will we find another angle will we find another way to disappear from all our loved ones hide away from absolution have u considered what lives beneath ur nighttime stride? all ears & eyes? do u sense it; do u sense whats behind?
