The streets you step on look awfully different
When they become your bed
The people you passed by covered in blankets look awfully different
When you're one of them
Especially when you're not comfortable enough to sleep
Had problems with sleep deprivation before
This is a heightened level
The laughs coming from faces feel different
When they're aimed in your direction
Like audible daggers in your ear canal
Pal
Already knew people weren't friendly
Just ***** when you're down and out
Searching for a way out
So far it's close but out of sight
Like I'm under a spell where
I've permanently lost my spectacles
Can't wait until I'm no longer down

Tell me a secret
Lock it away
In a fortress deep in my melon
Heavily antisocial
So you should know it's safe with me

Music is fun
Music is bliss
Music is parallel to an audio kiss
Used to say if I lost the ability
To hear
I'd surely go insane
Wouldn't know what to do
It's true
But now that the biological function is fading
Catch me cynically saying
At least it'll be easier to tune out
Humans with them none the wiser
Guess that's the Brightside

Fallen off the horse
Kicked right in the teeth
Got back on the bike after crashing and burning
After the ability is attained
Cant forget it
Right
The rider just gets tired of falling
Right

If I vowed to tell the truth
I'd be that one look in your eye
Would personify that word
Down to the last vowel
The sound your laugh makes
Was like a symphony of beauty to my bleeding ears
Almost brings me tears just to think about it
Not sure if I'll ever find anyone that will match
Or surpass what I felt for you
Funny thing is that you never knew
That's my fault that's very true
Your soul is gorgeous oh of course it's just Euphoria
When I've been up for days with bloodshot eyes
It's no surprise that one thought of you would lead me to
Slumber
It's pointless
Euphoria

Pursuits of unhappiness
Unbalanced brains
Match set
Not well played
I'm not an Ace just a *****
Probably low number two too
No face value for my card
If it were it be wildcard joker
Only has value in childish games
If bread no whole grain
Just overly processed loaf
Why do I feel like an oaf with high IQ
Or is it actually low
An abundance of complaints
An abundance of the same restraints
An abundance of open ended promises
An abundance of unsettled claims making the stomach sour
Leading to sicknesses
Tired of overthinking
Leading to not thinking at all
In terms of critical
Just thinking till you're not making important decisions
At all
Pick your jaw up off of the floors
Only way to open up doors

Dreary daydream duties
Cause digression
Lessons have been learned
At a slow pace
Out to pasture
While they posture spinal column is lacking in posture
Not caring much for closure
No sure things
Exclaimed or clamored from an unsure face
Unfriendly utilized at every turn
Tantalized by brutally balancing brain buoys
Only problem is lack of buoyancy
It won't swim
It'll definitely float while wounded
It'll paddle with one arm
It'll paddle with one leg
Omitting the fact of the matter
That it still has two more that are useful
Disregarding that fact as truthful
Disregarding an obvious statement
That you're not the only one
Whose felt down in their lifetime
What makes you think you're any different
