Damn im doing it again
distancing myself from all of my friends
I am losing my head
Taking it out on everyone around me
Loading up my word gun
With liqour and beer
Busting off my face
To anyone whos near
This is becoming a problem
What comes into my head’s
Of no control to me
I’m a victim of
Cruel biology
But i need to try to not
Be such a dick
Stop punching the walls
Stop yelling till i’m sick
But i’m hurting
Its how i show it
peel back the skin
And see the layers of hate
becoming a problem
Id rather die than change one bit
It all changes in a split second
I’m a million different people
Living in disharmony
Fighting for control
And i’m burning inside
And i just want to punch your face
I’m sick of being sated, I’m sick of being safe
I wanna take a risk right now
and blow up my fucking fate
And everything I fought for
Because something is wrong with my brain
This is becoming a problem
This is becoming a problem
This is becoming a problem
Fake out
Pained screaming

Space Camp

Veins bursting, life flowing forth, into the ground where the soil doesn't darken
finding how hard I can push before the dam gives
Don't kill yourself on this shit, kid, please hearken
My words,
Mean nothing to you
No hurt but it'll be there soon
My problems are pus pockets, neglected ballooning a tomb
And what's a man to do but
Make a bigger move
Leave a mark on the world
Just like they left on you
The iron wheel can only fight so hard
When I've been slung against it
again and again
It only has so many teeth to bite down
I will wear them brittle and thin
A pig to the slaughter
with my hand on the wheel
Everytime I eat feels like my very last meal
I keep reminding myself my fate is sealed
Cause I've left a trail of endings every where I dragged my heels
I want to be a astronaut not a space Cadet
I played my cards right but didn't shuffle the deck,
But I'm the one that pushes to the edge
when life's all edges a falls what you'd expect
I
want to be the meat
That blocks the cogs
of this gods jest
That made this mess
so obsessed
with being a martyr
To inspire fires, nah
to inspire pyres
Where they lay liars
down on beds of -
You can't guide me
because you can't even bend me
I am solid to my core
I'll live like no man can live
And live his dreams with no limits at all
disorder insists,
and leaves us nothing clean
I'm done living on this dying rock
I'm going to where the sky and the stars meet we

Paralyzed

sap our forces to a beautiful machine that leaves wakes in the dirt when it moves.
Free from paralyzing freedom at last. Too many choices mean more to lose.
Less to gain each time an epiphany plays on the back of your eyes.
To no surprise it incites savagery in the weak when they realize
it takes the strong not to act
cause nothing is holding you back
knowing hurts but it heals to scars
every tank is once delicate
group think philosophy, watching us eat and sleep on lenses 24/7 in our favourite things,
love and weep when it’s gone like a little baby hooked into it’s false mother making machine
lined straight into our veins it’s insane how much we can consume
it’s our lifeblood, our enticement to keep on sloggin’ on as black clouds loom
acid rain is such a pain
but we choose our sacrifices
carefully remove that part of us
make me a roboslave

Fireman

How long and lonely the trip to being a better man
Leaving behind all you love, all of your friends
Handing in your chips for pennies
Trading in your demons for lessons
Trading up forever man
I'm trading up forever man
When I look behind me I see silhouettes,
Ever growing smaller as time takes its best
It doesn't mean I hate you
Like just means I have to grow
I am a fireman
seeking out that glow
The only thing that keeps these legs moving is knowing will turn around again soon
Life is hard when you're slogging through deja vu after deja vu
waters up to your legs and rising too
This isn't hell, this is right here, this is you
You build a kingdom of shit and complain about which way the wind blew
Life tears it down and no one cries with you
Sit alone thinking no one's there
Ignoring talking from outside the door
Never opened, never touched
Never wondered very much about
how I became the man I am
Always blaming others, my teachers, my parents
Never realizing I was coding myself from day one
I am a computer in a world of flesh
I am a computer just doing its fucking best
It doesn't mean I hate you
I just means I have to grow
I am a fireman
seeking out that glow
seeking out that glow
