I don't feel particularly saccharine more like a dream the kind you keep yourself awake to keep from falling back into call in late dissociate just like the space before you fall asleep and forget who you are

ticklish 02:05
pretend you're ticklish and laugh try not to make a fool of yourself close your eyes and ten years passed somewhere along the way you lost yourself and now it's in a box on a shelf in a closet that's dark and I'd rather not turn on the lights it's not that I'm scared I'm just terrified

You don’t call me ever on the phone Am I supposed to listen to Thin Lizzy & get high on my own? I went by the restaurant Becky said You don’t work there anymore She said one guy too many made a pass at you & you walked out the door You dropped your apron in the parking lot & never came back for your last paycheck I don’t see you ever at the bar I’m always on the lookout For your busted ass Windstar Your name’s off your buzzer There’s no welcome mat Sitting outside your door Your neighbor said the landlord raised the rent ‘til you Wouldn’t pay it anymore You cleared the whole place out in a single night & you were up & gone before it was light You used to get so mad I couldn’t take you serious I’d make one stupid joke & you’d act furious You even warned me once That you’d get out somehow I guess you’re somewhere laughing now Wild one wild one where’d you go? Wild one wild one where’d you go? Trisha please come home

you've got a bit of honey I've got a bit of fly paper too together there is nothing we can't do except for most things you've got a bit of honey I've got a bit of scotch tape too together there is nothing we can't do except for most things you write your heart out on an open page I have one tattooed anatomically incorrectly on my sleeve together there's nothing we can't overcome except for most things you don't know karate I don't know jujitsu together there are some things we can't do and that's okay you know how to love real good I'm okay at not being a jerk sometimes together there are some things we can do and they're good things you've got a bit of honey I've got a bit of fly paper too together there are some things we can't do and that's okay

crux shadows 01:36
I miss wednesday and pickled eggs I miss thursday night wrestling I miss stairwells at 7am I miss the stoops when nothing's happening I miss playing dice for cigarette butts til the sun comes up til the sun comes up I am overrated and that's okay I just want to know next year you'll still remember my name I miss consuite and spam-based art I miss stealing food from room service carts I miss drum circles that never end but most of all I miss my friends I miss crux shadows and bagged wine every sunday night every sunday night I am overrated and that's okay I just want to know next year you'll still remember my name I miss the guy with the hot dog cart I miss reconnecting as we grow apart I miss malort, egg nog, and picklebacks I miss never knowing where my friends are at I am overrated and that's okay I just want to know next year you'll still remember my name I miss goblin hours and hangovers that never end but most of all I miss my friends

the seasons 04:42
tug on your heartstrings and try not to vomit too much wax nostalgic and then try not to wish you were dead the winter will be here before you know it and the spring will be here before you know it and the summer will be here before you know it and the fall will be here before you know it and the winter will be here before you know it and the spring will be here before you know it and the summer will be here before you know it and the fall will be here before you know it and the winter will be here before you know it and the spring will be here before you know it and the summer will be here before you know it and the fall will be here before you know it and the winter will be here before you know it and the spring will be here before you know it and the summer will be here before you know it and the fall will be here before you know it and the winter will be here before you know it and the spring will be here before you know it and the summer will be here before you know it and the fall will be here before you know it and the winter will be here before you know it and the spring will be here before you know it and the summer will be here before you know it and the fall will be here before you know it and

Someone took a shit on the toilet seat and I sat down on the toilet seat. Now I've got shit on me. And that's okay cause lately I think nothing means much of anything. You woke up from a fever dream. Sweating bullets but it was freezing. Rolled over and went right back to sleep. You didn't feel much of anything.
