The Jolteon Jan 2018
We used to have drunken ***
Until you moved out west
Decided to blame me

Sending music from afar
Wondering if it matters to you

Feeling empty
Like I’m missing
Jet fuel
Rushing through my veins
Feel like I’m missing a flame
That burned deep inside
Kept alive
By drunken nights
I feel dry
Like someone left out to die
Deeply empty inside
Wondering where’s my fire
The Jolteon Jan 2018
I guess you work
Until you die
In the meantime
Waste away on tablets
Sell yourself
Until you're dry
Only hope for life
The love of another
Rather than of all others
You work and then you cry
Because you realize
That all you ever did
Was make someone else money
The Jolteon Jan 2018
When you feel fresh
Fresh faced
Faced with fresh challenges
Willing to forget
Trying again
Trying something new
The Jolteon Jan 2018
I guess I should
Just take my time
In trying to find you

Except that every day
I feel my heart break
Thinking about the time I waste

Maybe that means one day
It will finally lead me to you
The time I spend wishing I was asleep

Stuck in the worst dream
I feel tears stream down my face
Hold my hand while I try and escape
Initially this was about women, and about loneliness, but I realized after reading it that it's about trying to find happiness
The Jolteon Dec 2017
I guess that I miss you
Like I used to miss you before
Before we knew who we really were

I miss seeing you
Like ten years gone
Now I’m begging you to stay

Your hair still curly
Your smile still holding back
Exactly what you don’t want to say

That the last time I saw you
Our lips locked on that red couch
You were dating someone else

Like every time I see you
You’re still able to break me down
Something always slips out

You’ve been on my mind
I know we’re both just passing time
But would you come back just to see me
I always just want you back
The Jolteon Dec 2017
Looks like I'm smoking
But I'm just breathing
Looks like I'm choking
But I'm just heaving
Up comes everything
That ever kept me down
I feel like drinking
But I'm scared I'll wash away
The Jolteon Dec 2017
Terrible ***
More awkward
Than a latex dress

A ******* mess
Empty bottles
And signs of distress

Unwise bets
Loveless ***, lots of girls
More regrets
