a compass points 4 ways just not all at once but that's not my brain when it pulls itself apart paths were cleared for me but these shoes don't fit right keep staring straight ahead looking for some hindsight it's cold out here it's been almost a year since i lost damn near all my fear still haven't found what it is i'm looking for something to call my own something to put my name on a compass points 4 ways just not all at once but that's not my brain

open work 03:25
orphaned texts from widowers egos hurt more than words boxes abstract swell fuller i have nothing to say about her it's a point of view / it's a pointed view it's a point of view / disappointed who it's a point of view / disappointed you hesitations unmet by expectations unset see the difference between my failings and his

subsweet 02:52
the baggage you left with me hangs heavy on my heart and the only way my head can lift it up is if we're apart but i'll still follow you clandestinely staying tethered through tiny passages subsweet you always said to paint you as a hero and i tried my best i think that's my one regret so when the void comes calling me i won't text back because i finally see that's the only way not to feel the pain that you left me

who knows where we'll be in 5 years time i just know my knees are killing me from all the lines i've been waiting in, that i work between boxed all day reflecting the self-questioning i haven't got away from yet we're all just trying to be happy here but really who's got the time fighting off all our woes will keep us busy chomping at the bit mixing blood with spit before you know it your teeth are on the floor what would jung have to say about this? you know i really couldn't say but i do know this we're all just trying to be happy here but really who's got that time fighting off all our woes will keep us busy until we die

past life 03:27
the fact remains that it's easier not to keep looking back at all it happens when you flip the switch i've been trying desperately to hold down ooh aah ooh what should we do x2 aah what should we do x2 you know as well as i do no one ever survives their past lives so why would we ever try to relive one ooh aah ooh what should we do x2 aah what should we do x2 because it doesn't feel the same not now that we cut the cord follow your pulse head to heart, hip to toe find the beat then let it go

overcharged & underfed one foot on the other's head neck & neck under eyes of the walking dead that shit's out there & it's getting in you can't rely on a thick skin build it up from within you know you should've by now, but it's difficult i know you could've used a hand, but mine were tied 'cause that shit's out there and i can't rely on a thick skin no no one can do it for you you're the only one it's true
