Lose, Badly

First loves never truly fade away But how interesting is that for us to say You know I'm tired and its a chore But these songs keep coming cause all we are is bored So I'll get drunk and send pathetic late night texts She'll wonder what dumb excuse is next Its been a few years too long to stay this much a mess So here's another lame ass song about your ex How many times have we been down this road before Who hears this white guy emo and thinks that we need more Maybe there was a reason she left you then before And its exactly that which you've chose to ignore So I'll get drunk and send pathetic late night texts She'll wonder what dumb excuse is next Its been a few years too long to stay this much a mess So here's another lame ass song about your ex

Like a winter cloud's first snowflakes yeah I watched you fall from grace and then you gradually you gave into entropy. Oh, did that elucidate that old elusive meaning? I have melted away entire personalities. Now I am just a shell of unused potential. A hermit crab looking for a home, nomad on the beach I roam. So I'll change the form that I take my cues from you and I'll change my face. Contact with me will leave you with a whole brand new sensation. Reality is setting in on all my preconceived notions I'm not who I was as a kid. I feel I'm no longer solid. Baking in the sun. Having a little too much fun. Just letting off some steam, now that's become the new me. Ice melts water, evaporates to air Time changes us all now it's like we're everywhere. I'm everything and at once I am nothing at all. God I know I sound like such a fucking asshole. I'm everything and at once I am nothing at all. I'm every thing at once and I am nothing at all. God I know I sound like such a fucking asshole. God I know I sound like such a fucking asshole.

Sometimes you cut your losses Sometimes you've just really lost this war between the id and ego lurking like something truly evil. The truth is that the lies you tell yourself won't help you sleep at night. Then you wake up tired keeping all this up just out of spite. And everybody's got something to learn, from all the times they tried and just crashed and burned. And everybody's got something to learn, from all the times they tried and just crashed and burned They say that patience is a virtue so I keep on waiting for it to prove itself true and change my expectations I ask for nothing and I still get disappointed Cuz I know there's another mistake around the corner Spinning out of control on a mountain road. I say a silent prayer that your engine fucking blows. I swear that I could kill you but you beat me to the punch. Now I'm the only one here as the days turn into months. And everybody's got something to learn from all the times they've said just fuck it let it burn. We get so lost we don't recognize ourselves Wishing on shooting stars as an escape from our own hell.

I called my father today. When he picked up I had forgotten what to say. Our winter walks in the park. His patience with me for my fear of the dark. Maybe we should let this go. Maybe it's time for us to move on. Maybe we should let this go. Maybe it's time to lose the futon. I've let your sadness be my own for far too long that I've forgotten how to live outside these songs. An aching feeling of despair is all I know between a rock and should I stay or should I go? Now both just shells of a man. The kind of people I would never say I am. So stay close to my heart, I swear I'll love you, no matter who you are. Maybe we should let this go Maybe it's time for us to grow up. Maybe we should let this go. Finish your thought and I won't disrupt. You lead the way and I am sure to tag along. You swear the promised land is far but close to home. I've let your sadness be my own for far too long that I'm afraid to live outside these sad love songs I've let your sadness be my own for far too long (x4)

My heart is always racing to keep up with my mind. That's why I'm never able to scream in perfect time. Hands are always shaking, my grip is never tight Everything that I want is always out of sight. Sometimes I just shut down like this. Mind and body are separate. I'm feeling just like Descartes VI Meditation something like it. I don't know why this shit happens I can't afford a therapist. Swallow all my words as I hate my earthly form never do I think I'll successfully conform and I never feel too comfortable, always on the move so you never see my pace or the way I grit the teeth in my fucking face Syllabic waste, over-caffeinate. I'm grinding my teeth. My heart palpitates Could this be it? We done with this? Relax your jaw, unclench your fists.

Is this really fucking worth it? A whole life feeling fucking worthless. This whole-ass world has gone to shit. We do our best to live with it Coerced, just to be contained. Living under corporate reign Tune chaos out with our screens Mindless dribble, fucking constant stream. Nowhere to run, nothing to lose. A world to win if you so choose. I'm gonna stay inside Nobody's by my side. Squish me like a fucking bug. Someone fucking pull the goddamn plug. I'm plugging into the hive. Uploading new mind files.
