lyrics

it still comes in waves, quick build slow decay. consumes you fully, but you feel sullied when it goes away. now i’m waiting for the day I put that thought away: that it’s not useful, this thing i’m choosing, there’s nothing i can say.

used to lead with your fist, stick the knife in and twist, but you couldn’t resist the corporate kiss’ lingering spit. so you try to ignore the unsettling sense that nothing of value is ever allowed to just simply exist.

waiting for my chance to take a second glance. i’m looking back towards what i had stood for, and there’s no romance

take another hit, but it still feels like shit. you learn to fake it or you’ll come to hate it. you might feel sick, you might feel jaded.

i slither in my seat when i’m stuck standing still, but i just wanna sleep when I get out. i’ll drink from the glass till i’ve had my fill but it’s a half empty solo cup of self doubt. cause filling is incremental, and empty is just potential. some spilling is essential, yeah it’s a mess. but what matters is how you clean up I guess.

so I still lead with my fists, stick my tongue out and hiss, cause there’s no calling it quits when you’re trying to resist complacency’s kiss.
i just try to embrace the unsettling sense that nothing of value is ever supposed to just simply exist.
