The Stars Are Brighter On the Outside (Of the World)
a view of my current state of mind
minus the tour guide
rather the annoying person who acts like they know it all
but really doesn't have a clue
sometimes i think i might just be one mood swing away from doing something incredibly stupid
maybe this is the creative breakthrough we've all been waiting for
probably just another breakdown from another underachiever
i've been waiting a year for something good to happen
my whole life is divided by a series of time spent waiting
multiplied by many slips and falls
beginning to think that maybe this storybook ending is for the birds and not the boys
i've been longing for an adventure
but to busy planning a funeral for my greatest failure
i'm well aware that i think way too much
when more time is spent on thoughts than on make outs (houston) we have a problem
can't help but feel like the world is passing me by in the night
i struggle just to get out of bed every day and start it over
what if 3am didn't exsist?
i forgot what the morning looks like when you wake up to it
compared to beating it to a sunrise.
life as of late
sleeping less and thinking more
working my way out of certain tendencies by lying to myself
everything i do is as pretend as you make me feel
