Pen to page, my pointless proverbs
Kettles on, forgot the water
Wasted time is wasted space
Letdown, seems its all it takes
Clean the *** and purify
Only me, myself and lies
Canopy of granule paste
Gagging on the rancid taste
Chorus warbles into gain
Amplified the great white plain
Stale thoughts of how and why
Leave my memories mystified
Boiled river's steaming stew
Bubbles deep inside of you
Cankers soar across my lips
Leading these into abyss
Candy coated carmine stain
Sway the crowd to your disdain
Pen to page, my pointless proverbs
Dont know why I even bother

i want to bleed until i'm beautiful

the more my life flows from the rips in my flesh
the closer i'll be to the only way i can be pretty

i want you to love me like a cassette tape

passionately and wholly, burning in your soul
until the tape unwinds
and you have no more use for me
use me up, and spit me out, baby

i want to cry myself to death
i want to scream and bellow and wail until there's no sound left
no more tears to cry
no more whimpers to squeak out
and the anguish is so much i can feel it in my bones
and i lay there dry heaving, my stomach sore and my eyes puffy and red

                                                and i look at myself
                                                       you pathetic ******* coward
                                                               real men dont ******* cry
                                                                       cover your arms, boy.
nobody wants to see that ****.

i want to die, you ******* idiot. there's nothing beautiful about that.

Roll over, rub the sleep out
Light comes on and everything is grey
My mind's eye's warning, "Keep Out"
Already, I'm fed up with today

Don't wanna open up to me
Cause I ******* woke up like this!
Can't keep my mind from roaming free
I woke up like this!
Can't say a word to you so I
Can't even ******* look at you cause I
Can't believe I'm back here again, cause

I! Woke! Up! Like! This!

no time for recess
your lunch hours over soon
again, i'll regress
back to where i was before i made it to the moon

i'm grounded, bound to my heavy head
and now i've found it pounds even when i'm fed
when it ticks so loud that i'm filled with dread
all the wounds cry out every drop i've bled

membranes bleed in classic fashion
seep into my brain with passion
pump my heart with fuel and tension
feeling like a villains henchman

******* baby, how did i know?
one more chance to powder my nose
i see whiter than the snow
and i dont know how far i can go

mr rogers asks for entry
everything gets past the sentry
powdered sugar makes me antsy
for whatever suits my fancy

im too focused for my brain
all the colours look the same
bow to gods that i dont need
if it'll cause my nose to bleed

******* baby, how did i know?
one more chance to powder my nose
i see whiter than the snow
and i dont know how far i can go

******* baby, how did i know?
one more chance to powder my nose
i dont know how you could appose
i'll just lay here taking several blows

i need you cause i want you bad
the sweetest girl i've ever had
is whiter than the winter's snow
i love it when she's in my nose

oh, i've been told to get in line
that my whole lifes a waste of time
but i've got everything i need
as long as i can do the deed

******* baby, how did i know?
one more chance to powder my nose
i see whiter than the snow
and i dont know how far i can go

******* baby, how did i know?
one more chance to powder my nose
hardly straight, no arrows bow
an early start for whole new lows

Tonsils set aflame
I can't complain
I've only got myself to blame
