I’ve been coughing in my sleep And that’s been keeping you up So now you won’t speak to me really And we both feel like we suck That makes me too sad to go out So I stay in and I cry Which makes you Go and fuck someone else Which makes me go get some help I get better with time The scars on my arms fade far away Now I don’t mind when I’ve no one to spend the night with So I let someone new stay We starting loving like real people we are talking and working things out Scares me to death but I let them sleep over Keep spare clothes at my house Now I’m staying up late Coughing into their side So my lover rolls over without words Which breaks my heart and it dies

Morning breaks like the family plates Chipping in slightly hiding my guilty face Hate that heat From the sun on my sheets Setting me aflame Telling me to wake Lay four hours in a tangled up blanket I should shower instead I’m strangled and thankless Grandmere scolds me To always make my bed But why should I bother If I never get out of it Never get out, never get out of bed Never get out, never get out of it Never get out, never get out of bed Never get out, never get out of it Never get out, never get out of bed Never get out, never get out of it Never get out, never get out of bed Never get out, never get out of it Never get out, never get out of bed Never get out, never get out of it Staying sick rarely sane never solid Missing Nick but to busy to call him Bitten skin stinging when I rinse my hands Winter's coming back Yeah they won’t understand Get out, never get out of bed Never get out, never get out of it Never get out, never get out of it

Mr. No is a vicious killer Slitting seconds with the flick of his finger Months ago he kissed goodbye to trying to live life And instead he spends his time chasing bliss And in his dreams He keeps on talking to himself And while he sleeps He can’t stop walking around the house Looking for something Mr. No got his hair cut thinking It would be some catalyst People say he looks so handsome more like himself But he doesn’t feel like it And in his dreams He keeps on running from death But he sleeps So he won’t have to live in his emptiness Looking for something Mr. No hates his mirrors So he broke them and chewed them into dunes Mr. No dug a grave in this self-made sand Buried his hopes Said he had to go And help someone move Who are you? Who who? Who who?

Lustdisgust 03:42
Once upon a time In a world quite like this one There was a girl With thick hair And a thick skull And thick skin She was in love with herself For quite a short time Because she poured herself in him A man of course She lived in a glass house And she paved the walk with rocks Telling her guests to Come on in and take a shot He had a strong arm From years playing tennis in the park But bragged that he hated the competition And if time was real It didn’t do them any service It made her sad and made him nervous Unsure how to feel They both spoke too fast The first hello until the last But then again they were too quiet in the nights before the mornings after They say fate is cruel for a reason I think fate is ruled by the seasons Giving people a need to be that close and warm She was in desperate need of a hug He wanted to hold her honest love And from that they both tried to get along But spring had other plans She thawed Got sick So he put his hands in his pockets Said he loved her but couldn’t touch her Though she called for a friend So she smiled and said "That’s so fine I’ll hate myself you can watch from the sidelines Get attention instead of affection I’ve always been a spectator sport" And if time was real It didn’t do them any good It made her nothing and made him wood And now their lips were sealed So it had to end No benefits beget from a friendship Where one side slices their arms on the words the other side hasn’t said Now upon a time they’re both at home Better off best left alone Thinking thoughts and getting stoned Hoping to get caught in someone else

A stranger said this to me “You’ve got good energy” But I just caught “goodbye” Am I’m a fuck-up for Freaking out on purpose? Don’t like to be surprised Quit lying to me When you’re not sincerely In love you just wanna cheer me up I spread my self thin Like melted margarine I sleep on the wrong side of the bread Something’s been nagging at the Back of my brain and now it Hurts to hold my head high I’m wasting my time When I say I’m not fine It’s a lie I’m good with living without I spend this life living Much like Doubting Thomas Clutching at my eyes No I’m not so forgiving As those like you or The holes in Jesus Christ I’ll make a scene Trying to beat some sense Into my head that I can’t deny Why can’t I see What’s happening Until it breaks me awake in the middle of the night Put your hand on my side Put your hand on my side Put your hand on my side At least I’m trying

From the view of a window seat I spy the ugly pyre of an engine Is that in my head again Or are we really going down this time? This businessman by my side What shape does his face make when he screams? Will he clutch at his seat will he pray will he cry? When he knows there’s nothing he can do but die Three-page pamphlet I always read Won’t even attempt to prepare us for the Eventually of burning And breaking And falling for minutes flat And would it change anything? Would I make a sound? I think I’d spend it Just looking around Who would I have to call? I mean when my face breaks on my knees That snap of spinal cord Last rush of sweet release Think of sinew and I start to sweat From a view in a window seat When the plane lifts off the ground Why do I get this hopeful feeling? I am the last surviving man In this god forsaken wreck Of a bathroom shower Clinging to curtains and grout on the floor Filling up sleeves with texture Exceeding my need to be better I can't do that any faster Than I can get up in the morning to go be a Real man Trying to separate scars from what’s got to be done like a Real man Part of my head Will never unstick From that hospital bed Part of my arm Will never unfreeze from her hands I am the cheat the fluke the bust I can’t be trusted I should’ve been with all of them The ones who didn’t make it out like some Real man What in the hell am I eating well and working out for? Let’s get Real man Don’t come too close I might get morose and recede It’s not that I chose to Don’t know how I’m supposed to not breathe Can they see me faking? Can they see me taking up space? Can they see me faking? Can they see me taking up space? Can they see me faking? Can they see me taking up space? Can they see me faking? Can they see me taking up space?

Sheets 03:15
Baby baby Won’t you lay your head right next to mine? Baby baby Crush my bedsheets stained with wine In the morning you’ll be gone But tonight I need you in my corner In the morning l feel wrong But tonight I want your arm behind my back Honey honey Won't you please be sweet to me? I’ll give you money If you sleep one more night here with me In the morning we’ll forget everything But for now let’s love the silence In the morning how our ears will ring And we’ll be quiet getting dressed Sweetly sweetly (Come back) You linger like an after taste (Don't come back to me) Of needing (I can't tuck myself in) You and needing my own space (Or start loving again) In the morning you’ll regret (Come back) Getting caught inside my net (Don't come back to me) But tonight when I kiss you (I can't tuck myself in) You feel fine you’ll feel warm inside (Or start loving again) Come back Come back to me I can't tuck myself in Or start loving again Baby baby It’s been months since I’ve seen your face But maybe maybe I wished things would’ve stayed the same In the morning I still wait (Come back) For the sound of you walking through my gate (Don't come back to me) In the night I feel this too Missing the weight of you

Come with me to The Gastation We may as well do something to do Before you’ve got to go I’ll buy your coke for the bus ride We’ll joke about the world again How has your girl been? I’ve got to know Did we know how far away we could get from there? Come with me to Arcadia We may as well have something to drink Tell me what you’re thinking of I swear that guy knows us by the names on our fakes He thinks I’m pretty he knows you’re nice Not a bad price on the pink one Did we know how close we would be keeping here? Come with me to The Gastation We may as well we haven’t eaten all day Were you late again this morning? Don’t you wish we could run away? Who would you miss? Who would you take? May as well be you until we get too grey
