Spill your coffee on me My skin is exhausted and maybe the caffeine will soak in and wake up my tired bones I could be your poetic trainwreck, baby Don't ever worry about running out of cigarettes Light up my fingers and smoke my soul, I'm sure it's full of toxicity Paint all of my journals black and rip the pages out, everything in them is about you and I don't have the ******* time to do what's right with myself Stop whispering about me, I am so loud about you I know you're disappointed, we all are, aren't we? All I have the motivation to do is make up excuses about why I can't get better, but they're all ******* My pessimism stops my optimism from showing its face, but maybe that's a good thing, I know this will pass eventually
I COULDN'T WRITE THESE POEMS WITHOUT FEELING HORRIBLE I WOULDN'T BE ALIVE WITHOUT FEELING HORRIBLE LIFE IS ALL ABOUT FEELING AND LET ME BE THE FIRST TO TELL YOU I'M FEELING ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING
These pages keep getting coffee and paint dripped on them Everything seems sluggish, but with coffee, even the most exhausting situations will become awake with astonishment Everything seems dull, but with paint, even the ugliest situations become beautiful
I want to be the man with the hat I want to be able to pull doves out from under my hat, anywhere anytime That way I'd be able to let my problems fly away instead of letting my problems settle and make a home in my head Trust me, this is magic All of this is magic These few tricks have been tucked away in my sleeves and it's about time I let them go Heaven is no place for the wicked, especially not magicians What can I say? Life is better with a little bit of magic For my final act, I'll make all of my sadness disappear
Self deprecation helps keep my head in check It makes me realize I'm not the best, but I'm trying, and that's all that really matters Even the summer thaws out from under the winter I know my beauty will thaw out from all of these problems I just have to be willing to see the brighter side of things and give them the permission to melt the ice that holds all of my problems in place
