The Road To Hell

A penchant for thrill seeking and
also wanting everything
And just as soon as I can get it all I want is what i haven’t
I don’t want it
When I have it
I can do it all I can do it all I’ll do it
I wanna doitalliwannadoitalliwantit
I’m climbing up the walls imclimbingupthewallsimslipping
And then I start to fall because my interests gone I’m dipping.
I’m living on fantasy and dopamine and distracting
And the promise of all the things that are glistening and yet to be
I really wanna help and do it right so is this helping?
Can you pat my head and say "good boy!" so I keep going?
I’m so into this I can’t imagine doing something (else)
I need another hit
Need another hit need another
The hits keep comin’ faster and faster
Hold up
The road to hell is my design
The road to hell is well intentioned

Gravity's Rainbow

You want me to say your name again
Is it gonna sound the same returned?
Sending up all Our thoughts into space
Easier than saying it to your face
hope they come back to you and say
All the right things in just the right way
I can say your name to pieces
I can say your name to shame
Cause I’d go up above the clouds
To read your message from the ground
I’d be the last man in space
It’s too hard to breathe down here alone
But If I got your message, in the black, all alone (so far from home)
I could breathe out that breath I’d been holding on (to).
And drift away as I watch your star burn
And I’ll be calling your name to pieces
Hoping you catch them as they return
Gravity’s Rainbow spells your name
Ever is forever say you're never gonna leave me
Ever is forever say you're always gonna love me
It won’t sound the same
When I say your name
(Cause) you won’t stay the same
Will you call my name?

Dipped Out

Dumbfuck, outta luck,Reaching for your fading spark
Overreach, hit your peak, Falling towards nothing
It’s coming
Went down in my soul, Said “it’s unavailable “
They Wanna know what you did, And you don’t wanna tell them
It’s coming
There’s no one left to answer
And colors changing faster than
A mood ring spent on a 6 year old, or
A box of crayons thrown to the ground oh no
Blue is me
Red is you
I did some things I never thought
I’d do
Dumbfuck, outta luck,Reaching for your fading spark
Overreach, you hit your peak, you got nothing
Peeked in, deep inside, Dipped out finding nothing
Reaching for something, You got nothing
It’s coming
You’re taking all this anger
Making something better
A page that’s shaped by loving hands
Can’t wait to see which colors end up where
Guilt for green
Grey is shame
Sketching still life’s
from all this Pain
Again
I take your drawing
Meditate on it
I can make you feel so fucking bad
Colors merge and colors fade
“I always liked that pink in red”, she said
I’m done in black and white
I’m turning on the light
To see
What I’ve always wanted
Just reach out and grab it
You and I will need to make some space for this
Fucked around and found out what it was I missed
You see, it’s what I’ve always wanted, you’re what I’ve always wanted
Took the long way round to find acceptance
What I have is what I want I’ll handle this
You’ll see
You’re what I’ve always wanted
Just say "sorry", dummy
Just reach out and grab it
Just say “sorry”, dummy.

don’t ask me exactly what I want
I’m afraid you’ll get what you deserve
You got exactly what you want
To feel alive and now it hurts
It feels like you’re dying
You know exactly what I want
You’re gonna ask me just the same
Play dumb until you fucking can’t
It helps you push over the blame
It feels like you’re dying, it feels like you’re dying
It feels like you’re dead
It goes on and on and on

Close To This

I wanted to say
This is the best you’ve ever done
Nothing else will ever come
Close to this
I wanted to say
This is the best you’ve ever done
We put it in a box
We filled it up with rocks and shame
We threw it off a cliff and in
Into the ocean
Into the ocean blue
I took another box
Filled it up with much the same
I wore it like a crucifix
Forgiven but this one could not be fixed
Could not be fixed
This one could not be fixed
What else to say?
And what to do with what we’ve done?
We can pack it all in or we can write another one
Let that shame spiral
Let that shame all the way out
Let it spiral out to
Where I can’t be found
And now that I’ve unpacked it, I’m gonna write another one. The best I’ve ever done.
I’m gonna write another one
It’s just a song
For you

How are you doing what you said?
How do you say the things you feel?
For me it’s like a thief has come and took my tongue, I’m dying
Now that you feel the way you feel
Now that I’m trying to be real
With you I’m touch and go, I’m vertigo, I’m failing at this
Can you just put your lips to mine?
Can you suspend your disbelief
In me, that I don’t care, that I am wrong, oh god I’m trying
If I could just pull this cotton out
Out of my throat so I could speak
And say to you “you know you’re right. And you always can be with me”.
Soak it in
Focus in and say you love me
You shook me right up
