I've had it up to here with your fucking witchery Select a shtick and stick with it or don't say anything to me Oh, did you smell the blood in the water but get cold feet? I left that piece of me on the altar If you want it back, feel free. Please just say it because I'm shameless. I wanna hear it from your lips.
2.
My best guess is worthless But I thought maybe, this was something worth saving. Sorry. I don't know why I do anything, anymore. I'm just stuck looking for a reason that lies forever out of grasp, but within sight. Dopamine seeking missile It's just a matter of good enough. Spend a lifetime waiting for nothing- our joy is a conditioned response. You will always be too late. I end my fast with stale bread and vinegar. My body unnourished, my spirit unpurified. Windows flicker as a TV sings a dream of life and light and color into and empty room. But none of that matters now. Everything important was already lost in translation.
3.
These limbs grow long and tapered as I swim these slag heap vapors Blindsided and immobilized I try to remember, failing each time Fluttershunted chandeliers Dangle to greet me, seething sweetly (Yeah, oh yeah!) Ignore this message. This world is a test. Hyperdimensional vomit quest Back, turn back I've trudged these wastes for years Nothing (no, nothing) pure grows here.
4.
Like a piece of tissue to wet skin the ghost of our promises still clings to mine. Everyone knows that nobody meant it I'm through deciding anything. Comfort, darling comfort, come to me! Until the earth burns, no one will get what they deserve. Stop pretending like you're not a willing part of this machine.
5.
Lurch toward the opening of the vortex but make no progress. Stranded in the darkness, the mirror reaches toward its reflection. So tell me: did you too follow some will-o-the-wisp here? Or have you simply come seeking refuge?
6.
in my head except it's just you talking and I've forgotten all the words. I think there's something wrong with my end of this connection I think someone's been cutting cords. It's a real shame neither of us will feel this way tomorrow. Now I realize; all this time I thought we had was only borrowed. - - I will fucking find you if it kills me comfort, darling comfort, come to me. (Serenity)
