there will be no semicolon tattoo on my wrist
the story ends this year
i know you don't like company
that's why you brought me here
because you need somebody to bitch about when the party is through
and i really don't mind if i'm that person to you
any kindness is going directly to hell
and all of my attempts always seem to fail
so i guess i will sleepwalk through this spring
it's not like i'm missing out on anything
except the gradual shift in tone when anybody's talking to me
why is anybody talking to me?

hate is a very strong word
and i will use it on myself every single minute i have to breathe
this dead air while i'm cramped in my room
making boring little pop songs just to make sure that there will be no further questions when i change states
nothing ever happens except for the occasional burst of energy
and jealously, i watch from afar as my friends all have their hangouts
and i just stay in one place
"do you ever think about how it's always nothing everywhere?
do you ever stop to see if that vein will collapse under the pressure of the weight that you put on just to see if you could do it
big surprise, you can't do it
just go back to sleep"

silently leaving the room
auburn eyes tearing me apart
silently leaving the room
everything i know has fallen apart at the seams
and i can't seem to get back to you
so i think i'll just call you back later

another crying fit alone on the floor
shadow people, i can't do this anymore
noted pleasures in the notebook where you wrote out
all the ways you dreamt about yourself dying in
gruesome ways, akin to the black dahlia
shake the skin off your bones
there is one last thing to say
but your words are caught in my throat
and they wouldn't come out anyway

i'm feeling nervous like a self-stolen life
the finger on the trigger is yours and not mine
i'm never really going to get over this, am i?
motherfucker = redeemer
please don't try to make me cry
--------------
i never promised i would be safe to stay home
but you hung up anyway
and i'm so so glad you did

we're going to need a lot of smiles where we're going
just smile and wave and occasionally check your nonexistent watch
rotting on the highways with my friends and they're all burning
and one of them recently got hit by a car
and they said the only tragic thing was that it didn't kill them
dead out on the luxury scene
there's nothing i can really do but lie here and watch you
fall out of love with me
falling ten feet off a bridge sounds like heaven to me
and i'm known for laughing in my sleep
but i won't tell you what the joke is
dancing with this skeleton i robbed from a graveyard when i was thirteen
sex-obsessed peers leaving vomit scars in the bathroom stalls
if i had something to smoke, i would.

take my advice and bleed out slow
nobody ever has to know
one last song before i go
i am never in control
