so you're walking down the cracked paved road lips numb and huffs of breath escaping through your nose your hands are in the pockets of a large yellow hoodie with bloodstains down the sides, clutching at a crumpled ten dollar bill and shaking so you're walking down a road but you don't know where you're going the feeling of not here so abstract that you can't help but laugh at yourself for thinking that this would actually work you know how other people see you a small boy with a baggy sweatshirt and a mouth that tastes like coffee and cigarettes it seems, recently, that everyone knows exactly what you taste like, mouths pressed to yours in an effort to make the minutes stop so you let them because you're running out of time and you figure that you should take what you can get but sometimes, you're noticed, even the feeling of a body pressed to yours, blood singing in between the ***** sheets of cheap hotels even the thrill of easy *** cannot diminish the feeling of a crushing weight upon your tired shoulders your world is ending and you know this and you're having a hard time carrying on

In Between the ***** Sheets of Cheap Hotels
so you're walking down the cracked paved road lips numb and huffs of breath escaping through your nose your hands are in the pockets of a large yellow hoodie with bloodstains down the sides, clutching at a crumpled ten dollar bill and shaking so you're walking down a road but you don't know where you're going the feeling of not here so abstract that you can't help but laugh at yourself for thinking that this would actually work you know how other people see you a small boy with a baggy sweatshirt and a mouth that tastes like coffee and cigarettes it seems, recently, that everyone knows exactly what you taste like, mouths pressed to yours in an effort to make the minutes stop so you let them because you're running out of time and you figure that you should take what you can get but sometimes, you're noticed, even the feeling of a body pressed to yours, blood singing in between the ***** sheets of cheap hotels even the thrill of easy *** cannot diminish the feeling of a crushing weight upon your tired shoulders your world is ending and you know this and you're having a hard time carrying on
