Grief is so traumatic
because you expect the change to be dramatic
But the world keeps spinning
and the mundane keeps winning

Maybe I’m so drawn to the dead and dying
because, by that point, they’ve stopped lying
~much love

I isolated myself entirely
because people never did want me

Self deprecation
is the best preparation
for accepting defeat
on the occasions you're beat

Does it make you feel better
thinking you're better
than everyone in the room

Does it make you feel warmer
making me colder
leaving me alone in a tomb

Does it make you feel smarter
dating the smarter
of the corpses you exhume

Does it make you feel better
taking out everyone better
who you perceive in the room
~much love

I don’t know what I’m looking for
but it’s most certainly more
Maybe I just wanna little effort or devotion
from the one who set this insane narrative in motion
~much love

I got exactly what I wanted
but I can't avoid being haunted
by the notion that I don't deserve
all the kindness and caring I observe
cause so many great people wanted you
that you wanting me is too good to be true
~much love
