Your loss benefits me killing to be kind can’t compete with privacy in this light your glistening skin colors me allured because it looks so inviting I’ve not been officially absolved it turns out a long face doesn’t change the end result so we slog in the factory of sin alongside the demons in my head was it the blood drive or the alcohol she sued my pants off yet my socks were still on back at the dancehall we’re bumping disco as the saints get filled with lead for several reasons not least of which wouldn’t you like to know you represent yourself in a flattering way I kind of envy your lack of shame it isn’t even in your vocabulary your (brain is broken) your snicker sends shivers through me

Making a dime the old fashioned way can’t cast the die from beyond the grave falling behind even if your holding on tight as for reply you’ll get a bashful face clandestinely masturbating lay down the phone now the question is inevitably how better believe in a higher power something behind the now or never claims if I’m being judged for every encounter you can assume I’m ashamed if you dare dip a toe in new-fangled maze impressively surprising design to navigate if they try to make you messiah that’s fine go dictate just don’t take your time coz I’m waiting impatiently wish you weren’t fated to lay in the bed you made if I could have traded my diamonds for fabergé eggs if and when I finally decide to be indecisive maybe I didn’t make enough time for fashion’s sake leaving behind the old fashioned way clad in a tie versed in bribery

Fleeting Permanently
02:27

Lonely and homesick the window is closed didn’t give yourself a chance to grow speaking wordlessly resting without sleep fleeting permanently let me guess I have to let this be a lesson too sure do look proud of your bland platitudes I’m up against it it’s all up in the air just goes to show the things of which we’re capable are unimaginable you seem to think that you are exempt it’s all in your head although in the end it seems everything is right up against it I want you to be near touch your hand kiss your hair I haven’t replicated what we had it doesn’t pay to fabricate thinking clearer now that the window is open

With the lights out it’s easier to reach milestones feeling my way across your collarbones the glow we exude in the sinking sand with no hands to grab you miss the ceiling idols fall when they meet you we were night owls had a hoot too loudly though when we thought that we were finally alone little did we know our cover was blown the myth is not the man he’s meek as a lamb it’d be endearing but it’s a letdown to my idea of you I signed the dotted line as you encouraged there’s nothing wrong with a little life insurance then my stomach turns when you told me that you needed me to know that you were terrified of an assailant in the corner of your eye since then I found myself praying you go blind it’s a letdown to my idea of you idols fall when they meet you I’m enthralled when I’m with you

Flattery

Dual agent for god and country plot a coup still so nascent that there’s nothing in place yet in terms of a safety net their flattery was a hatchet job really cleaned my clock (I’m at a loss) my patience is gone coz you’re not my confidant you’d look good in gaussian measured bona fide you remained a mythic matador fooled twice then I’m to blame like it or not it’s my fantasy don’t try to make sense of it you’d sell me short to secure your height and furthermore if you felt inclined to cause our paths to collide then I’d endure it in a way born and raised on nickelodeon shows heavy-handed but surprisingly light on your toes

My flop sweat ain’t charismatic tell me something I don’t know a soaking wringing wet mattress isn’t ideal to sleep on and maybe I’ve been childish but baby you have too conditions start to get tragic the longer they go on after dealing the damage you act so nonchalant admittedly I’m a tyrant and baby so are you if you haven’t lived with such a sadness before you have an avid selfish side since you have been given special status of sorts let’s hope you use it right now that the floor is yours your the master I want to explore and so I’m moving on to greener pastures how long will it be until your bleeding heart intervenes it’s only when I’m left alone your body starts to persuade me no it’s not my fault at all if I crack a smile will you break my jaw

Emboldened Over a Barrel

Why guard an open mind is it the last of it’s kind or a ploy you devised that keeps you safe parrot the last party line feels just like you’ve got a spine if this doesn’t merit a parade we’ll boycott veteran’s day every slogan is the same it just comes down to taste if it’s sweet it doesn’t seem like medicine your hero are noted for being defiant as you purport to be but you’re as meek as I am so let’s inherit the earth we won’t be thwarted fists clenched and steeled we’re self important so we strike first then eat our hearts out later (they’ve got you where they want you) feeling emboldened while over a barrel

Tremendous Mess

I’m running out of avenues that could deliver me from the forming horde squandering an opportunity desperate for fortune or the freedom of the hummingbird but apprehension clipped my wings there’s no excuses not to watch it burn this isn’t any kind of attitude to have when you visit me don’t resort to force scrounge around for shreds of dignity the death of a salesman couldn’t be more boring you’re scaring me more than average since I pointed out your story’s full of holes every oasis is a mirage with all that we own in tow rolling towards the flames the moral failing only depends on how it’s framed you wondered aloud if it’s lonesome on the moon while I scratched your back you collapsed into the floor in pieces you made a tremendous mess wallowing in meritocracy the cosmic decision was made far before you were born remove the ambiguity separate the failures from the triumphs of the few but their intentions speak volumes the only excuse for this happening is so we can watch and learn

Not Quite Lightning

Gleaning via liaison merely pales in comparison to the naked eye it’s not quite lightning in a bottle but it’s gold to fools is the chip on your shoulder a chip off the block or make believe it’s only fair if you came upon it honestly love it or leave tidal waves don’t take a vacation trickle down raises eyebrows unanimously slaying sacred cows we’d rub it in and take a bow life’s for living not for giving up and dying
