Love, what a joke when you're alive like me, But you like to laugh along until you tell me what you want, tell me why it can't be You got guns and guns, you make sure to load the clips for it You get me nice and close you know kissing distance, and let your pistol whisper it. Go ahead and buy those things to make yourself feel like you've found it. Being lost I've found 'finding' funds flagrancy; and just goes to compound it. Gimme this gimme that, does this lifestyle you know, make me look fat? Get your own body (stop watching mine) what do you think you should look more at? Love, what a joke when you're alive like me, Try to stay awake to observe your nature and I fell asleep up in the tree, Buy yourself a ticket take our time and have it tossed You lit a fire in me, I got lost in you, now I'm on fire and lost. It was wrong. Now your gone. I'm lost. Do you have any idea how sick I am of myself? Or what that's like? (Chances are you don't) Burn yourself with an iron, get really good at it, do it all the time then you might. I'm to that point where I can't brag about my fears, not anymore They just make me scared. (That's what they want) Driving backwards to go forwards in a car without the rears, Still feeling more comfortable impared. Light the fuse and wait for no explosion, being blunt: I can't find a point. My mom told me every day I was special, I was chosen, Then she marked a made up friend who's easier to anoint. Through all of this, nothing is constant. Not mother, nor brother, nor pa Mother gave me to a father who lost me Now I expect everything to go wrong. To be gone. To be lost. Feeling for affinity in streets all filled with enemies I've had my fill of friends who tease then climb on me to meet their means Got enough **** problems of my own, stuck in a government that wants my bones Home of the brave, land of the free, host to double down hypocrisy (the parasites are profiting!) I guess I'm ****** to be ****** collar free slavery For every shambled man or ma'am who wants to sign into democracy C-a-p-I-t-olism, Get em trapped up in the schism boys! Get em boys get em! We're lost. We've lost our way. Or maybe it's just me. If you're out there please say, please stay. We are this lands new beginning.

Flagrant Little Vagrant
