Eyelids leaves in autumn weather Shoulder cold as snow 'n sleet Hair adorned with Zs, growing bored of cordial speech Morn' routine, ignore a sleep quota, throw on clothes and leave Tryna keep my mind together, nudge my soul towards some peace Don't control my own two feet Flesh in autopilot, I'm a fly upon the wall Scouting ways to certify that shit is dire when it's not Eyes brighter when they're raw, nose diving in the faucet Frightened as a cocky rock climber when he falls, and the harness snaps like it's bark and a axe Ego in the coffin, leave sod and dirt to swallow that Should swap the farmers for some jaded prophets following almanac I'll probably stop sneezing at these problems once the pollen's passed Bars going harder than my left ear hearing is Read a couple books to stick to judging by appearances When trouble's drawing near again Might know my way around now Sitting took a toll I can't cope with no surround sound Beeping in my head, I always read it as a countdown Fetal in the sheets, Grim Reaper on the prowl See the ceiling high up, seeming like the frequencies that's drowned out Freaking out the neighborhood like Howl's house I found out quick I can't give a fuck it's no room for arousal Opportunities too elusive for lounging And when the going's getting tough, there's nothing ludicrous about it Give the wall a bruise as proof of the pounding Memos I send to the sky like, "I had best get reimbursed for my time" My grandma whimpering from the mouth she taught me nursery rhymes I'm in a bunker, I'm shaken, I'm not so up for a tussle It only means she sleeps worse when we fight Busy lugging 'round some cold hands, shaking like some salt New tasklist for an old man Gonna see my mom soon Since this brain was ripe enough Taste that's in my mouth like fucking dogfood Hoping there's somebody 'round to talk to
