Wrecked

Fearless fearless
Not compromised
Careless awareness
Not ostracized
If I lay down to say goodbye
there's the whole world one last time 
at night as I make my bed for the daylight
when I crawl inside the sunshine
who set a price 
on seeing the whole worlds electric lights
Last rights pass me by
I'm shamelessly patient
As a sky
I'm aimless I'm hateless
It's a lie
that you fade away into star light
Guess you're all right
Sliding in the moonshine

When we left out where we're headed 
Tires spun out when you kicked it
How it played out pretty sickening
Dig a grave out and jump on in it
People talking they were tripping 
Sneaky gawking caught me slipping
psychosis isn't imminent
Eventually stopped listening
That September I was healing
Encumbered with guilty feelings
Morphine so appealing
Drip 
Drip 
Drip
Drip
Peachy Keening.


Don't wake up a sweet dream extension
reality creeps in full of apprehension
defenseless to an inquisition 
Suspended my world's been ending
Does it look like I'm pretending
Wheel me away from my skin it's peeling
Stuck in a space made for kneeling
Escape the day, nights unfeeling.
Will this stillness please stop spinning
Limitless pretenses
Glimpses
Grinning
Oblivious in iridescent linoleum unconsciousness 
Glorious-
dismantle me into dust
