Still not quite convinced I really do exist / I always start and end in the same spot / just when you might have thought I'm feeling fine, I'm not / I swear / I just read the vibes right Clearly you're not down with my enthusiastic bullshit when you're with your drug friends / watch me tone it down a notch / I cut down on the talk and be right where you want me If i ever find myself I'd stay out of my motherfucking way Malleable and shapeless / I sway the conversation / line by line, I turn it into math / I've never been good at that / so I'll stick to a laugh / maybe try out a safe joke If I ever find myself I'd say / "I can smell your room strictly from your exhale" / "you think you're so cool but leave out certain details" I feel my heart stop beating / I'm done this time / I mean it I know myself like no one else / and I hate every second / just like paranoia except I'm always right

Walking by cars parked along the street I’m counting feet on my fingers Marking pairs of repeats If we’re doing this, we’re doing this right. The Sunshine Bus has arrived My insides won’t even put up a fight The driver knows how to drive And the wheels all know how to float So we coast along down the road Do you miss getting stoned to The Smiths? And do you ever listen to the CDs I made you when I forgot how to drive It’s a silent trip home overlooking paths in the woods, Streams that suggest life can, life will still be good Let me sleep in the backseat of your father’s car That we stole for a day, we didn’t go far Let me run and catch up I will prove you my worth No first will be last / no last will be first I’m scared I’m running out of time

ate 4 double doubles last night cuz Kris said I had to be even with him my stomach's cramping and we're camping out in sleeping bags and I miss falling asleep next to you turn off the tv I'm always sleeping because that's all I need to do to have fun these days because whenever I leave my house I want to go back inside keep feeling nauseous every time I watch the news everything makes me sad except spending time with you there's all these feelings building in me but it's not my place to ever say exactly what I think about the things I've only ever read about so I'll stay quiet each and every time I want to be the one you depend on when you are broken and confused I want to be the one you rest your head on when you are tired from walking one too many miles it's just too windy outside for me to light this shit I'm over it again I want to go back inside with my friends I'm not too sober to listen to your stories everyday just hoping that you'll stay 'cause I like you

Sorry in advance / I'm sorta bad at this / I've been distracted / since you showed up here / my rooms been such a mess / but I don't care unless / you tell me to I guess / but we're both too stoned Seasons greetings from a cold dark bedroom / I'll stay put for just as long as you do / it's 'bout that time a week we're smoking butane / if we try hard enough we might get halfway high Sorry in advance / I'm sorta bad at this / I've been distracted / since you showed up here / my rooms been such a mess / but I don't care unless / you tell me to I guess / but we're both too stoned Your sleep eatings drying out my snack fund / but this deep breathing tells me i dont need one / woke you sneaking back to bed / you caught me crashing into you just like a tsunami and just like the tides, I'm persuaded by the moon / and just like the moon, it would take thousands of me to shine half as bright as you do Sorry in advance / I'm sorta bad at this / I've been distracted since you showed up / my rooms a fucking shithole / I don't care for now though / it's better than being alone

I slept in between the crack of the bed and the wall I'm not blaming you but it's not my fault This began and ends in my too small twin I don't think this will last Light of day peeking in through the window Wake up, get up, it's another shit show Someone's right and someone's wrong Pride is swallowed, this weeks too long I FEEL YOUNG AGAIN TERRIFIED OF SNAKES AGAIN SKINNY DIPPING LAKE AGAIN I FEEL YOUNG AGAIN As if mental pictures could be accepted as enough the sun out of sight makes environment rough Maybe I've spent too much time in my routines I know I've wasted days with eyes fixated on screens All of my months just different versions of each other Is all of this just an excuse to get pity from here? For a thankless existence, I'm sorry. The clothes that you put on were wrong On behalf of a species that regressed would you expect a better fight song?

is it so much to ask that you text me back i'm so scared of losing touch i'm scared to ask if you know that the reason why i try so hard to be nice is so no one else will leave me behind you're right that it's not that hard to tell the ones that you love how much they mean and how you'd feel if it was them and not us but i can't make the time in my life to be sad every time you're around me how did it make you feel to know you're not quite enough for someone who took so much from you and then just gave up on the things that used to make me so glad i was the one holding your hand 'cause i'm not too busy i'm just still dizzy trying to catch my fucking breath through these sweat-soaked sheets but you're still so pretty and i'm still too skinny to hold all this weight on my own but i find the time to tell everyone i love that someday i won't need them anymore but that's because they've given me everything i need to be me you let me be me i'm not going back to my bed before i find a way to tire myself out it seems that everything tires me out except trying to get some rest
