I call my bed my ******* best friend
it'll always hold me when
my head is cracking, pouring
tequila and brain matter all over the floor
when I'm hacking, dying
from the poison I chose to take
laying naked and shivering
but too hot to cover up
I'm generally not a **** but
for my bed I'll do anything
just put a few thousand shots in me
so I can be with my best friend
so I can finally
fall asleep

We all dissolve
It's basic science
While we evolve
None of us are compliant
We're hurling through
Without any consent
Our **** is true
No point in dissidents

We grow like the grass
From infertile grounds
We just want to save our ***
From unholy sounds
No matter of belief
They don't care that we don't
We're just the falling leaf
In search of lofty retreats

Doppelgangers

When we're born
And until we perish
Ideas we've worn
Things we relish
Seem to live on
Despite our broken bodies
Daughters and sons
Sacrificed, we're follies

With that said
We all get a piece
Heads and hearts of lead
Holes in moldy brain-cheese
No one is afforded
A true way through
Everyone is sorted
And it really is true

Family's with money
Fall and suffer from lack of love
And family's with none
Shiver in the cold through group-hugs
Healthy people, sick ones
All suffer fates they'd choose not to
Church steeples, Satanic cults
Deceive and feign the truth

Ups and downs
Lows and highs
Smiles and frowns
Laughs and cries
One and the other
Living in harmony
Sisters and brothers
Who tolerate each other
Because they know
Whether high or low
They'd drown in the undertow
If their doppelganger didn't show

all the eyes scan right over me
this hand hasn't held
this heart hasn't felt
this knee hasn't knelt
to any feeling of late
my plate is empty
and has been so for
many a day
I've forgotten how to say
words that melt or thaw
my body doesn't know
how to be raw or *****
I must be
I must be
fading
fading
faded

woods surrounded us
full of clatter and charm
we lay beneath a woven blanket
you fit snug into my arms
that dark hair twisting in my fingers
your laughter and gentle kisses
complimenting the words that
filled my ears
I hate it, I hate it
these dreams abound with you
I don't even love you anymore
I don't even care
I don't even remember how to love
so why do they haunt me?
why do they taunt me?
why can't I let them
go?
I wake up with a pit in my stomach
as if over three years hasn't done a **** thing

Blasted
Out and far wide
Hurling
Tumbling out and in
Planets
Pass and go
Asteroids
Crash and burn
Time
Wanes and builds
Nothing
Stops for you
Everything
Lies in wait
