obsessing over *******
just quit
"just sing it"
all you've got is a piercing tone?
think you can make it with that alone?
rough around the edges
only to guard [nothing]
black, hollow space
trick yourself into thinking
you're rising above
instead
of
sinking
at your core, nothing more than-

well, ****
if you're going to let M(e)[go] rule you,
why stop doing what {we} used to do?
superiority was top priority
your only authority!
how i fooled you
and others, too
where kindness makes you cringe
and your own is just a
fleeting twinge
where you praise your sins
and darkness wins

out of control
and giving in
