Figured it out.

i think, and i realize

 

how far can i go

 

*******

 

******* up

 

getting ****** up

 

and then not be okay with things anymore.

 

when will i wanna change?

 

and will i know how?

 

i need new scenery. everything is too worn out to me.

 

always blame the season.

 

i don’t remember how to feel anymore.

 

but i do remember how it felt.

 

and i keep spending time with people who

 

don’t know how to feel either.

 

and we just dig holes with each other.

 

it’s ultimately ******

 

and the reason we don’t ever mean that much

 

to each other is because

 

we’re ****** up.

 

but that’s all we want, we say.

 

the right amount of insanity or else they get the boot.

 

it’s no fun if they’re completely sane.

 

it’s no fun if they wont damage their brain with you.

 

always trading lovers in, fading out.

 

people are beautiful

 

the crazy people are beautiful

 

with their slightly broken smile

 

daily fixes

 

and unruly speak

 

they all forgot how to love

 

but lust all the same

 

breaking at the seams

 

of how things used to be

 

thinking it was better before

 

we got here.
