what if we couldn't die?
what if the stars in the skies were actually lies?
white lies from an enterprise. Something we won't understand...
...for years, and i'm talking space years
tears for all the years we've tried to find the light
we're not getting nowhere
i guess we'll have to settle for the Bush League again.

Pork Rinds

let's try not to keep if by all the time if we can help it.
court my mind by eating Pork Rinds and try to keep my feet warm all day long while being forced to feed and forced to breathe culminating to a sea of grain.
but they felt soft and easy to puncture with my nails.
(how easily found can you be? must not be hard it must be easy.)
how easily found?

you think you know Christine, but she's a Mystery.
boy, am i sure.
am i a Mystery?
boy, i'm unsure.
you drew my bath and put me in.
you warmed me from throughout within
you sparked a flame inside of me.
it kept me warm despite the breeze.

never gonna try to work it out this mindset i don't want to be in i guess i'll just live with it forever because all of my friends do too. i wanna keep feeling like a Ghost so i can scare all the happy people out of their socks. i want to curl up by my wooden fireplace and warm my feet all day. i want to curl up by my wooden fireplace and warm my feet all day.

Starfish

you look like a Starfish in a cage
the rusty bars distort my view of you
today they picked you up and wiped their hands across your belly
you're such a vibrant shade of blue
i don't want them to touch you
don't let them explore you
and i want to love the things you do i want to be with you
so i can see you
just to know you're still a bright star in my sea
in my memory

i will use all the warm things in my life to keep my body warm at night and i won't shout goodbye to my memories.
my time flew by my eyes. i made up games for hours with my brothers in a bedroom of our old house and we thought of all these crazy things to do. it was great. it was magic.
steel meshwork for reinforcing the concrete.
get near the fireplace and your feet will be warm all day long
a tear forms in my eyes as i look across the table at my brothers now we're older where has the time gone. we used to think of all these crazy things to do. it was great. it was magic.

A shower
01:31
|

|
i just want to curl up, like an insect, in my shower
let the hot drops hit my spine and trickle down my back
all i smell is burnt pajamas and wasted cardboard
from the art you were making
last summer in a whirlpool over there
i made a bet with myself that i would try to make myself more honest with myself so i can see the next punch before it lands
i want to be warm so bad

having shit to do makes you feel official,
but lately you've been lackadaisical.
put another scoop of dark roast in your press this morning and
pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up
making your rounds in your bush league town feeling hot as hell in your blazer. buttoned down. Bar None. only profit on these grounds.
lately though, the yield's been low and that shit's got to go so. so.
pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up
Bar None.

my last few weeks felt. out-of-body. a little starstruck and also naughty. i still remember when mommy held me. i played with toys and went to bed at seven. now i'm twenty i don't know how. all of my friends look like adults.
i just hope the next twenty years aren't worse than this and hope we keep all our friends and they stay young in their hearts and we stay young in ours and we keep talking about life and death even though we know we'll never know until one another start dying and then we won't have friends to talk about existentialism anymore.
