The Slow Apocalypse

I keep consuming whatever I touch
I always dismantle the people I love
ripping and tearing and wearing them out
holding them under the weight of my doubts
I was a glance you should have ignored
I am an island you can not explore
I am the secret you wish you could keep
I am the nightmare you chase in your sleep
What I want, what I love, what I had, not enough
I want more, need much less, can’t fill up the emptiness

the darkness within me, I feel like it’s winning
I’m tired of fighting the monster inside me
your wishful thinking makes this worse
you’ll never understand this curse
every encounter takes its toll
it’s getting harder to control
the darkness within me, I feel like it’s winning
your wisdom escapes me and nothing can save me
you feign concern and turn away
you can’t back up the things you say
I place no faith in your advice
you stumble blindly through your life
I am not pure
there is no cure

brundlefly doesn’t chew
can’t digest the solid food now
brundlefly, how does it eat?
it vomits death on human meat
blood boils, flesh melts down
brundlefly, take a mate
it’s time for you to procreate now
seth, where do you belong?
seth, what have you become?
seth, who can you trust?
don’t worry seth, she’ll become a part of us
-----------------------------
it’s not about the proof, I know you understand
you take a piece of this and crush it in your hand
with every comment that you make
my list of grievances gets bigger
I know that you don’t own the gun
but you’re the one who pulls the trigger
your wisdom comes with age, I’d rather keep my youth
if getting older means I’ll just reject the truth
with every comment that you make
my list of grievances gets bigger
I know that you don’t own the gun
but you’re the one who pulls the trigger
you’re too preoccupied with your apologies
you’ll never live up to your ideologies
with every comment that you make
my list of grievances gets bigger
I know that you don’t own the gun
but you’re the one who pulls the trigger
you treat community like a novelty
you’re going to fade away into obscurity

The Body

Pale like the light
that Crept through the blinds
quiet and calm
just barely alive
the flesh of your face
so cold to the touch
it’s hard to believe that
you suffered so much
the next afternoon
I came to your bed
no one would tell me
how long you’d been dead
knew it would happen
I couldn’t prepare
I was looking right at you
I could tell you weren’t there
you’re gonna wake up
you’re gonna wake up
you’re gonna wake up
everything’s fine
why won’t you wake up
why won’t you wake up
why won’t you wake up
don’t tell me it’s fine

drag me me to ocean
hold me under water
swim out even further
ditch me for a surfer
I’m your fall back
I always call back
you dismiss me
and I just crawl back
drag me me to ocean
hold me under water
swim out even further
ditch me for a surfer
I’m the martyr
I’ll try harder
to keep your head
above the water

he told your mother, he told your dad
he told your brother, it made him mad
he hit my face, he broke my nose
he made some comments about my clothes
he had a tape, he played it back
he added on a special track
of audio, some stupid line
like he had room to criticize
he told your brother, he told your dad
he told your mother it made her sad
to see us both so exposed
he paused the tape, the picture froze
beyond the harsh, reflective glare
he saw us both just lying there
what a creep held back a grade
too fucked up to graduate
after all these years, on the internet
to my surprise a friend request
I read your message, do I accept
“remember me?” how could I forget

I had to look, strapped to her back
just a quick glance, at her proton pack
she’s so cool, I just died
she set her trap, I’m stuck inside
girl of my dreams, crossing the streams
you were the one, I fell in love
she’s so cool, I just died
she set her trap, I’m stuck inside
she’s pickin’ up the PKE
I wonder if she’ll notice me
ecto goggles, hazel eyes
she’s just too much for living guys
I feel like I’m about to slime
can’t get her smile off my mind
she treats me like the evil dead
don’t believe a single word I said
girl of my dreams, crossing the streams
you were the one, I fell in love
she’s so cool, I just died
she set her trap, I’m stuck inside
I fell in love

still get hurt, you can’t fly
don’t heal quick, can’t read minds
don’t shoot straight, can’t take hits
just a suit, that’s all he is
you call yourself a hero, you’re just a fuckin’ stiff
you’re pushin’ registration, it’s never gonna stick
you call yourself a hero, well look what you did
you said you’d make a change, it was just another trick
