Seize Up

I had begun making progress
There's no time at all for us to rest
Being confined, measured and processed
Without a sign of regression yet
I’ve forgiven you far too often
Get it out of your system
We don’t need another one up here soon
Get it out of your system, and keep it out of your system
When it all comes in
At the same time
It's taking me this long to realize
How cold and how listless I've been
Get up and out this instant
I’ve forgiven you far too often
Get it out of your system, and keep it out of your system
We don’t need another excuse from you
Get it out of your system, and keep it out of your system
We don’t need another one up here
The cog between your gears are bent and
Sure to break you
They’re bent and sure to break you down
It only takes one in all your machinery
I don’t want to have to see you seize up
(It only takes one)

Typical

Buried another
That’s a shame it’s so typical
You just had to ask, didn't you?
That's a shame you’re so typical
On your search for a heavy heart to hold onto
I had an interest but you were never Impressed with it
We both underestimated how far we’d get
Remember to keep yourself covered
And behind your ears clean
Reach for the sky
Thats a shame you’re so far below
Standards of a worthy hand to hold onto
Carefully constructing these fallacies designed to make your outlines glow
Resulting in lines, lies far too bold

Taipei
05:23

I haven’t passed out (yet)
And pressures increasing (don't remind me)
White knuckled and wide eyed (until I arrive safely)
I can’t recommend enough
(Not sleeping the night
Before a long flight)
Told my new friends how much I had
Enjoyed their company
Still unsure of why their kindness had me exhausted
I left Taipei in a hurry
Considering the chances of this intersection
Of parallel lives
This wasn't supposed to happen
Let’s speak in the only place we’ll meet
But I'm nervous
We won't understand each other
That’s why I've been hesitant
I lost my chance and it'll never happen again
Because I've been hesitant

Wart

I come in close
My fingers have the texture of sandpaper
As I caress your neck and collar
I'm leaving abrasions on sensitive skin
Get it checked
This is infected
It will sting and it will spread
I hope to begin my complete immersion into
A life with you
Irritation persists as these scabs and scrapes
Will never heal cleanly

I'd never thought it through
Whatever I used to do
I wouldn't be this far without you
As someone that felt the same
About what you needed too
I hope I never disappoint or have you….
Thinking I'd abandon on purpose
I'm just so sure I'll never be able to support you or bring about a new life here
In good conscience
Now for the longest time
I've lagged a mile behind
Your encouragement is precious
I think maybe going blind will be the way I die
After seeing you so disappointed
I know I can't continue on like this
I'm just so sure I'll never be able to control it
Or bring about a new life here
In good conscience

Your Medicine
03:21

After take off
You haven’t gotten far enough to exhaust Your potential and an understanding
You’ve been wrong about opportunities to persevere
Take it head on.
In a lab with the rats
Running tests taking shots like the rest of the rats
With visions of white my life might flash by
That’s why I don’t want your medicine.
You can hand out more but I won’t abide
I don’t want your medicine.
You'll be past your prime by the time you make up your mind
If you could get through it once
You might get through it right.
Surely before my eyes the plan has gone awry
We can all see you're going to die
In a lab like the rest of the rats

I can't help but to hesitate
There's no good reason to wait and watch as these problems begin to culminate into what you are
My temptress
I'm afraid of what you know
You know it's not reciprocal
The way you take
Have I been patient enough?
There's no reason to wait
Yet I've been patient all along
My hands are clean
Though this might change everything
When I can't pretend to know
We can't pretend anymore
That my hands are clean enough at all
To change a thing for both of us
My hands are clean
I've been patient
I can't pretend anymore
There's no good reason to wait
I'm still patient

Good, You?

Take advantage of every moment
Like how you and I have the snooze set and Every 9 we firmly decline
We have a day ahead of us
The instant before I lose my mind
I try to hold on to it
As if you’re mine tonight
I had never hoped to make that sort of impact
Liven up and pretend I'm not drained
After having been asleep the entire
Prior day
I had never hoped to make that sort of impact
Liven up

Stupid Pupil

I’m doing better than I had been at this time last year
Right after my plans failed because I was unprepared.
I started to taking these medicines
Handed out by crooks and I gave in
I’ve passed out again with mistakes piled as high as I’d been
They stream in these awful thoughts
Dam the flow because I can’t
Despite everything that I’d been handed
And all the chances
I missed the memorandum somehow
“Your time is now”
Discouraged, I’ll stick to sitting around
What a shameful waste of my early twenties
They stream in these god damn thoughts
Stop the flow because I can't
You're not the same as before you left
what happened?
I’m doing better than I had been at this time last year.
I’m thankful for the help I had to turn it around

Fill It
02:54
|

Empty space; I don’t know what to do with
Take a sample it’s free.
It doesn’t matter much to me.
I’ll be a little while longer
Than I planned
I’m afraid I have to break a promise I was sure I’d keep
I’ll be a little while longer now still
Fill it, fill it, when less is more.
Refrain, from shaking and taking irrational risks i don't need to at all.
A worthless cause
I've met,
Bone crushing defeat after promises of plenty.
