Sometimes I like to wear an oversized shirt and socks
and then sometimes I like to wear nothing

Some days I feel everything at once
and some days I feel nothing at all

Some nights are spent dreaming of lands far away
and some I didn’t even realize had gone by

I like to be alone
but I hate feeling lonely

I love my family
but my door is always locked

I’m very keen of white cause it represents purity
but then black represents depth

Coffee makes the world a better place
but tea can be had at any time

Pools are relaxing
but the ocean makes me feel alive

I enjoy living
but I want to know what happens after death

I am my own compass
pointing north and pointing south

Torn between myself
and what I feel

and if that’s not confusing enough
the compass never stays still

As I stayed buried deep in my books
You simply slipped away
I let you fall and crumble
Under the new memories in my brain

The library I thought that held it all
Books of life piled high upon the shelf
We're a sweet weight of fake felicity
I carried proudly above all else

Now I realize I was foolish for letting you
Fill with empty pages that library
Thinking you'd write a part of my life
From the pieces you took from me

I am a King that drinks beer
and is surrounded by bodies instead of money

I am the master of my own universe
the one adorned with bills and paychecks

I am the God of a religion
followed by many but preached individually

The beer tastes like freedom
The universe keeps me going
And my religion makes me real

The king's fatherly tightening
like trials by a contemptuous man
led to the biggest crying
by she who loves this man.

So I guess and gonna stay buried in my books
and let you slip away
let you fall and crumble
under the new memories in my brain.

Wear love like a scarf
close to your head and your heart
don't let it choke you
don't let it blind you
just keep it in between those two
so everything makes sense
so you make sense
and you're not withholding yourself
from what life has to offer
if the scarf starts blinding you, take it off
if the scarf starts chocking you, rip it off
and remember
its better to wait for the good scarves
the ones that last
cause the ones that are in clearance
have a reason to be there.
