1.
Lingering On 00:45
Why do we wonder why people leave this planet everyday? Praising the ego & stomping the struggling Valuing traits like arrogance and praising it as strength Scoffing at vulnerability and judging suffering If you ask me, we should all leave this earth while we can
2.
I continue to melt right before my own eyes I am disintegrating The more I fall apart the less I recognize These attributes that make who I am I am rusty parts operating at half power
3.
If you can’t quell your anger then you’ll never actualize that which you fantasize. Just take a minute and analyze. They only patronize because they fear that one day you will realize. Knowledge is the power that you must fully weaponize. Free yourself and legitimatize what they fucking criticize. They will begin to dramatize with their words in an attempt to capsize.
4.
I know nothing of this world That I haven’t learned from grief Instilled since birth with a dismal existence Life boils down to a simple concept How do you plan to go forth
5.
These middling responses have really got the best of me Your expressionless body language has left me wondering why I try? I know you’re not in there but every now and then I trick myself into thinking that you’re alive Because there’s this look in your eyes Or is it a sign? A sign that says help.
6.
Exhausted & defeated Running ourselves dry to avoid who we are Cycles Of Flesh Collding Doomed To Repeat
7.
I peeled behind my skin to take a peek To see what’s inside There I discovered it A hole patched with hate So gapping and huge, pulsating and dark I’m unable to pinpoint when this started but it has taking me Subtle but consuming I am sharp and rigid because my discontent is everlasting yet my mind is collapsing
8.
Draw a line but don’t fall into one
