Is it conscience?
The way you follow a story as true as fiction?
let it stomp out some imprint, consume you and give you tunnel vision
When all the while I’m still trying to speak this to existence
But I missed it...
...and what if I told you that there’s a place where serpents live with pacifists
And they don’t stretch the truth behind their precedents

NOSEBLEEDS

I’m a skeptic to whatever you believe in
Deep sleep keeps clogging up my head
(And still)
I feel it from the bounce of the upstairs floor to my ceiling
I don’t want to know what you did to pass the time
Because I’ve tried so hard to never let it pass by
I see you staring
From as far up north - from the nosebleeds
...And I’m desperately trying to break that link
But it’s easy to take advantage of something so candid
I want to fall apart
Cause you’re the only truth I’ve ever found
But “kinetically I am what they gave to me”
I want to fall apart
Cause you’re the only truth I’ve ever found
But I am only what they’ve done to me
And I’m sorry
To whoever you claim belief:
Any ounce of credence had has long passed through
(It’s reciprocated)
Like a neuron firing through the nerve
Teeth pulled but it’s still considered progress
The dentist’s sold on whatever’s going down tonight
I don’t mind
I’ll learn...
I’lll do whatever it takes, so long as long as I can keep on staring

Simulating the future again
Befriend a newly found image of self
Throwing the older one out
How high can I take me before crashing down?
Gravitating towards a little more you
Falling out of tune
Pulling towards my room
Can’t shake it off me so whenever I do
It’s shocking my system with so much conviction
I’ve said it all...
I think that I’m a robot in this place
Cause every time I’m sleeping
I’m awake and no amount of white noise could ever change this
Yeah, no amount of noise could ever keep me waiting
S t f u
Get out my head
Yeah you’re wasted
NPC, now you can see?
You’re so vacant!
What’s inside?
(Yeah what’s inside?)
Obnoxious how we coincide
A little more you but nothing ever changes

SOMEWHERE NICE
02:41

Silhouettes in the snow couldn’t cast enough of a shadow to keep you covered up
I don’t mind tryna fight the Arctic winds but when I do I shut down and let them win
I always hesitate
Lose volition and succumb to the heart rate
So could you meet me in the middle?
Somewhere nice
Minneapolis was cold as ice
Maybe somewhere warm so I can feel it
And we could put this all behind
Cigarette smoke inside your lungs caused forest fires that couldn’t put out
The dry winds never helped
So I don’t mind if you hide but it’s not discreet as it once was, a cloud follows you around
Could never hide the smell
Always tried never had the right candles
Bystander, do to you as you’d do to me
Stay at a distance
Because the further you are from you is the further you are from me and that’s fever dream that keeps me sleeping
Why do we progress to get to the same place?
Why do I protest every time I’m alone couped up in my own space?

ROUNDING THE EDGES

(I hear you calling from a distance, I dismiss it)
Subdued, I’m running out of room
Getting no sleep, falling into routines
It started with the knees, piled up neck deep
Drip the cut in saline, shoutout theta on the beat
Knocked out feeling stars from my back to my head
I don’t mind picking sides but don’t know where to begin
I’ll suffice to all my vices so that I can fit in
And in the morning knocked out feeling stars in my head
(The sleep could always change with you in my bed)
You too?
You’re tired of the moon?
And every time you find someone they always ditch you?
“You didn’t miss out you just found a better view”
I was naive to believe I did too
(The sleep could always change when I get back to you)

SUPERFICIAL

Move slow, die fast
All this coated in my brain
(please don’t die fast)
I’m just tryna see my name somewhere like that
Lost myself along the way, I kinda like that naiveté
Don’t let me drift, oh
It’s getting in the way
Don’t leave though, all-out on display
My ego all-out on display for everyone to see
12:29 p.m
That’s when it broke
Could hardly listen in
And in the meanwhile
What the fuck am I doing?
I’m a superficial movement
With glass walls
Move fast, die slow
You started from bleachers
I started from the free throw
Don’t get mad cause it worked out in my favor
I feel like uzi vert yeah I feel like I’m a slayer
Peel it back
Take it off like a hat
Let the bugs crawl out of my head
Scatter all around my back
I just want to feel like I’m not pulling myself away from this
