SKYLIGHT.

I am a skylight
Seeping in
I don’t wanna be someone
Who never lets the sun in
What am I so proud of?
My little accomplishments?
Where am I even going?
Who’s really listening?
But I have to keep my head up
I can’t be wandering
I’ll see where I end up
If it’s right to begin with
What does it mean to feel so complete?
We’re a passage of time
I’m just passing the time
But in this life I still hold light
I notice the leaves and the way that they fight
to grow an arm or two in the dark
they wither and dance and hold onto chances
But in this life I still hold light I notice the leaves and the way that they fight to grow an arm or two in the dark they wither and dance
and hold onto chances I’ve said it before
But what did I say? What did I mean?
What’s it all mean?
I see it blue
In all I love
All I say
All I make
I’ll see it through
It’s all in me
It’s in the rain
It’s here today
I see it

DESTROYER.

Said "i just don’t need it"
Still found me in the yard out cold
Said they just don’t see it
Where we’re from this ain’t an issue
it’s just home and i still can’t believe it
Ur boys turning 25 years old
And i’m shaving my head
Pouring out another bottle
Cuz not all my old friends get to
Turn 25 years old
Any sacrifice i’ll bleed it
Just put me out there in the van
Out in the cold
I don’t care where she goes
But i’m searching to destroy
and it won’t be closeeeee.
Angus says that i’m sick
It’s all in my brain
N i need to talk with some one
So there i am standing over the cliff
My cigarette burnt my finger tips
Cuz i was pretty worried about jumping
To conclusions and if i’m sick
I wanna black casket and screams from the rafters
Lemme outta my black straight jacket
I wanna see the tears in the waiting room
when the dr says he couldn’t do much more and they zip u up on the operating floor
Isn’t this just like you asked for?

FREAKING OUT INSIDE.

Is anybody gonna show me the way?
All the gravity of time and space is in the back of my head
It’s all inside my head
Another feeling that I cannot afford
I’m as haunted as a host, but man, i smile.
I mean it when i smile but i’m freaking out inside
I am freaking out inside.
There’s nothing as pretty as a dollar sign
Unless it’s a pile of money that you set
on fire,
I’m gonna set it all on fire.
I don’t remember who i’m running from
I just know that they’re catching up
and I struggled to hide what is already
up my spine and i’m freaking out inside.
I am freaking outside and i know that you’re no good for me and i am no good for you but i’ll stay with you all day, all night, if you ask me to
Those helicopters flocking over the beach,
They are storming like killer bees coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me
Coming to get me

MERCY KILL.

Take her driving
Highway 3
Please carry me
A valley of sirens
At least 2 or 3 police carry me
Where baby Lily lies
Coming closer every time
Desire Fading…
Hours taking in your scents
Mine owes my sheets
My clothes keep running away from me
Dare to settle
A date
For me?
Wild
Digging those soft teeth in my tongue,
My naked mile lumps
Getting carried away for you
Undressing lace for you
But i am an occasion
A closet medicating lily of the valley
daydream.
Whoever says they wait for you
Just wanted you
To stop
Chasing
See through skinny bruises
Processes i’m abusing
When i was open for a mercy kill
You were salivating…
Suspicious of my friends and my foes
My heights and my lows feel kinda the same
In truth, you pretend
To mistake the two while you’re taking out the shark teeth
When you’re upset
Your surrender’s a killer, Kat
A full cart of thigh meat
Too stoner, remind me
What i am
Seeing
Lobster body
Steaming pot lid
becoming a ceiling
Whoever says they change for you
Just wanted you to stop shaking
See through skinny bruises
Processes i’m abusing
When i was working towards a mercy kill
You were already bleeding out
I lose my mind to keep our time but you don’t make it easy
I stamp towards outside my door but you don't make it easy
You dont make it E Z
