a graveyard for the clasps of your pants
and rare earth metals that wore out in the frames of dead cell phones
the terabytes of texts you sent that meant everything
but won't be remembered by anyone
i'm pretty sure the afterlife is just a sleepover with everything you've ever killed or made feel worse than you had to. that's why you're there with the flies and the spiders.
i'm gonna be less indecisive
maybe
i'm gonna catch all of my enemies
and release
i'm gonna commit all the things i get to memory
and try to convince myself it's better off than nothing
a moment of silence for all the fucking talking
you fuckers can't ever stop making.
haven't you been in a room and done nothing?
don't you know that spotlight's also worth ceding?
i'm pretty sure the afterlife is just a sleepover with everything you've ever killed.
my fucked-up friends, who ripped up plants from the earth, have eternal gardens.
i'm gonna be less indecisive
maybe
i'm gonna catch all of my enemies
and release
i'm gonna commit all the things i get to memory
and try to convince myself its better off than nothing
i'm gonna be less indecisive
maybe
i'm gonna catch all of my enemies
and release
them into a world where they can be wholly free
to be destroyed by the angry and starving and clumsy
tried two dozen shoes and none fit
you got to walk away before you make yourself sick
the day was gorgeous and stupid
so one ever bothered to catalog it
tried two dozen shoes and none fit
you got to walk away before you make yourself sick
the day was gorgeous and stupid
so one ever bothered to catalog it
