Lick Your Wounds

If it's not one thing, it's probably the other. I swallow my problems like I swallow down water. I solve my problems just like my father- I can only care so much, and now I can't even be bothered.
I sew what I reap. I won't live my life on my knees. So cut me at my feet, I've lost the willingness to march to your beat. I gave you my music, made your soul take flight. Look how you've betrayed me- I retaliate out of spite. You can't relate to me, and that fucking breaks me. Deny me, and fucking stake me.
I find daggers when the others see light. Living in shadows, kissing the knife. Live life separate from my peers, one cry away from drowning in my tears. These feelings I can't shake, maybe this confession is a final escape. Tonight, I grind my teeth to the bone- my house is a head that will never be a home.
You can only bite your tongue for so long, until it's plagued with infection. I'm so tongue tied lately, disconnection. I'm sick of selling myself to you. I retreat, everyday I feel defeat- so I lick my wounds.

Water And Oil

Fortune teller, rat-way dweller- we blend like water and oil. Fortune teller, you fucking liar- not even you could see this love spoil.
Your sins are wasted. Your entire life is wasted on never fulfilling the expectations.
I lost my faith at rock bottom- if you can’t prescribe love, prescribe a tylenol bottle.
I never trusted your ambition in my families lives.
Lies, lies- it was all fucking lies.
Water and oil.

Harshest Winter

Day to day. Biggest stress. Right in the head. Mentally hexed. I’ve got this burning deep in my chest, I feel closest to dirt when I’m doing best.
Bite my nails to the bone. Clench my jaw, my teeth corrode. Every feeling I have is borrowed, and everything feels like glass when I swallow.
Searched for a process to better myself. My outlook grows heavy, like the books on the shelf. I lost the willingness to learn and grow- find my head, sunk like a stone. 40 winks, demon on my chest. Harshest winter, three months of distress.

Absurd Wisdom

After all this time, I thought you’d learn your lesson. Life dries out, with that I fuel your obsession. Financial gain, sanity lost- time is money, what is the cost?
Your heart beating in your chest, must’ve left- settled into nothingness.
Burn your candles like you burn your bridges. Drown it in gasoline, so it can’t be extinguished. You need an escape through pain and hurt? There’s no need to search, find yourself a plot in the dirt.
Self medicated, can you justify yourself? Dealing with some demons, never asking for help. Your heads under water, you can’t cut ties with the sea.
Your metaphors don’t fool people like me.

Son Of Judas

Something more than a bond with the sky. Something more than the pyramids eyes. Thousands of years, no answers to the cries. I lose my faith when all hope dies.
Do you live your life in fear? Or is it uncertainty that takes the wheel and steers? Are you really afraid of what you’ll become? Or are you just frightened at the falling sun?
Filthy fucking dirty, dirt flows through our blood. But out of our wounds, pour regret and mud. Passive aggressive, all you need is love. Praying for rain, knee deep in a flood.
Son Of Judas.
