your tears felt like bullet holes
on my new black sweater
except they were made of water
and you look ugly when you cry
but that don't make you feel any better
no that don't make you feel alright
no that don't make you feel any better
no that don't make you feel alright
leave your jumper cables on the kitchen table
this night we'll be the only ones that are able
to rest inside a coffin made for two
i guess i gotta get used to youWA
FUCK!
man it really must suck
to know you're totally fucked
when every time you had thrown
its just a thing you had blown
just take a fat ass look
at the things you mistook
your cocky-ass smile
your UM
leave your jumper cables on the kitchen table
this night we'll be the only ones that are able
to rest inside a coffin made for two
i guess i gotta get used to youuuu

i got two beds inside my house
but i still sit on the floor
i got six dollars in my pocket
but i still look like i am poor
i used to think the shit i write doesn't apply to my situation
but as im sitting on the ground right now ill take that into consideration
cause i don't wanna keep running out of time
ill still get up at six and go to bed at nine
cause i don't wanna keep running out of time
i don't wanna keep running out of tiiiiiiimeee
you look like youve been crying
are you sure you feel okay
you mention you're in high school
he says he just swings that way
youve got two people taking hits
just to watch you fall right down
i gotta finish by tomorrow
i gotta finish right, right now
cause i don't wanna keep running out of time
ill still get up at six and go to bed at nine
cause i don't wanna keep running out of time
i don't wanna keep running out of tiiiiiiimeee
and why the fuck do i feel scared
every time i see your dad?
its the same exact feeling i get
when my mom looks at me all sad
and i asked you a serious question
that i don't think about
i only ask you when i need you
i only kiss you when i fight
i only ask you when i need you
i only kiss you when we fight
i only ask you when i need you
i only kiss you when i want to (fight)
i don't ask you
i don't need to
i only kiss you when we fight
don't worry i won't bite

theres a hand that grows
on the back of your tomb (i don't see the light, i don't see the light)
i don't see the light, i don't
my face turns red
just like the room
you killed me in (i don't feel the light i don't feel the light)
all these separate pictures
burn holes inside your fingers
and the way you read your lines
makes me feel like you are mine ( i feel the light)
"i don't wanna be here, not on earth, i mean. just where i am right now cause the way you look makes me cry out loud and i wanna ask you to uhmove in with me but i realized i gotta be 18 and i aint got the room for that in my bank account is failing and um im falling flat. sorry."

time will share frugally
about how some off-beat poet
would descend from the rooftops dramatically
how you stretch your right hand
to meet a glass wall
that you created out of false accusations
a spell you put yourself under
as you believe that all of them
care exactly what you do spaciously
carelessly
how you fumble like you care
why hate someone who's mouth seldom beats
like the drum you always supposed
that people are all the same
just in different ways

my leaf has eyes
gradient, it is branched on the inside
branching like lightning on the inside
brown like an eye on the outside
i see you crash
i see you lonely on the couch
you're ragged like wood
you flop like a fish
you lack knowledge
but you look picturesque
i wanna be apart from you
i wanna be together
when i do these things
it makes me feel like im all better
i use these, think
cause i use them for me
not for you
like gradient like leather
in a stomach you cling
to the wet ground
who holds and flips you
like lightning, your veins are blue
and they always were
ragged as wood
with the salty grime of the water
rushing to the side of a long journey
and each coming night
your face is round like your eyes
i can see you crash
a fish a tree a song
a fish a tree a fish a song
a fish a tree a song
you are lonely again
without truth
without the tremors of the day
there is only night
and it is silent
as the night has always been

im gonna write a song
about dying alone
cause its the first time I've felt bad
in a long long fucking time
yeah i left my phone at school
i feel bad
i left my phone at school
and i don't wanna walk outside to find you
cause i left my phone at school
i don't wanna wake up tomorrow
cause i left my phone at school
you touched me last night
in my sleep i thought i would like it
cause of how much i do like you
but i just feel ashamed
CAUSE IT ONLY feels good
when im in
the dark
the dark
the dark
the dark
the daaaaaaaaaaaark
