(0169) felt like the end

we're the only ones alive. quarter notes fell, but i ended up here anyway. forgot about you a long time ago. keep pulling out the bones till there's none left. full house face down. you never saw it coming. tick goes the clock, unafraid to show its pride. indigent and hollowed out. i keep waking up too. only, you're not there. feeling dead when i'm anything but. he repeats the same things over and over all the time, and it gets tiring. heart attack will come and save him soon enough. chain reaction is exciting. down go the buildings one after another. nice job, mr. president. give me the gift of foresight, and i'll promise to drink all of your overpriced bottled water for eternity. lightning bolt straight to the source. and we never fake it. why? well, fuck... because sleep doesn't help, dipshit. a message from god? i doubt it.

i wish i could have saved him. i honestly do. bittersweet, but it's too late. a new era dawns. "how do they do that?" "do what?" "they always land on their feet." "animal instinct." "damn right." follow through before the sun dies because someday there won't be anymore lies. break the habit, and you can do this too. it's easy. just like mom always said. and just like dad never got out of bed. too many mazes to navigate, eh? i'll see you soon.
