goodnight to you and good morning to me
cause i know ill be up all night
with my heavy head
and hardened memory foam pillows
stuck against my bed

if youre the sadist i believe in, ill describe my pain in detail:
the middle parts of my eyebrows were hit with too much information,
my eyelids are burning with salt
(i hope it causes an abrasion on my cornea),
the tips of my nostrils burn and feel wet,
my shoulders slouch and the blades sharpen
(i hope they tear through my back),
the rash on my legs and arms is from scratching during the phone call,

[yea i get itchy when you make me nervous,
im glad you only call me when youre upset]

my stomach is tight from not eating but i still want to throw up,
my existence is weightless and im caught in my paradox again
