Inside/Out

by @kenny

Did you get to sleep Or are you marinating in chemicals? The nightcap pulled you down dragged you with your breath You cut deep Did you figure your insides out? You're inside out spilling your guts again off-balanced like an unstable vivisection Combusting your soul back to a black hole Counted off stars in your eyes you swore were aligned Do you know what's behind? Or will you keep looking? Out there the truth isn't it's all a reality hallucinogen generation of self-prescribed nomads It's about the journey somewhere there lies a destination Lying about it's age again and you can't touch it Yet it was here the whole time this very moment and it's so goddamn beautiful if you can get out of your own mind.
