Beach Hazards Statement

by kenny

Do I sink, Do I swim— In dem eyes of Lake Michigan? I got my hopes up again Tryna stay afloat While the world ends So I’ll build a raft of empty prescription bottles And ride it out in the plastic sea Let it engulf me Beach hazards statement- I’m coming alive again I’m done asking the current to pull me in I’ll leave the call of the void on read While The waves are thrashing At the sea wall So just pin me up against the lighthouse And whisper me sweet static nothingness I’m coming I’m coming I’m coming alive again Beach hazards statement- You make me wanna give a fuck and mean it We woke up on Subconscious shores Wind whipping sand in our face You’re hushing all my little wars Holding tight in your embrace Staring into me like Life imitating art Defines catharsis you’re the muse in my mind’s moshpit You’re the last punk rock princess Blowing out the speakers In another castle In your old skool vans And your mc5 shirt Leopard nuanced Leather queen The madness To the meaning Let’s get hyper real In the surreal cerulean So tell me, Do I sink do I swim in those swirling galaxies of Lake Michigan? Cause I don’t even think about the end Just an abyss of Fear and desire conflicting
