oh, the bliss that must come with the ignorance to your own actions the knives you spit with vehemence whether involuntary or by choice a deaf man could’ve felt the disappointment in your voice
you’re busy playing wordle in a ******* bathroom you’re talking to your future self inside a vacuum you only know their songs from one of the guitar hero games but you’ll wear the t-shirt all the same
