(0371) fraction of necessity

i'm running out of time. i've got the end of the world on my mind.
right now, the future's either going to help, or it's going to put us in a fast and further decline.
i just make my peace with everyone and tell myself that i cannot resign..
but i'm a fraction of necessity, and i'm always slipping more and more behind.

the insufficient have their excuses, but the perfectionists will never be happy.
i familiarize myself with every word i can't describe or pretend to read..
so i establish learned forgetfulness, but it only seems to lead to apathy.
my assumptions are never right, therefore, i don't know who i want to be.

(0370) where the sentence started

remain a little bit just like me.
retain the information after
i've gone to sweep the dirt away, and
i'll show you where the sentence started.

some mistakes are easy.
all you have to do is relearn
just what it means to be afraid of letting go
of what was never yours to start with.
we are slaves to it all so end the same song and make a call.

we have no second or third chances.
we make our lifeboats out of nothing.
these moments hardly ever matter.
last taste of air before i suffocate on my own thoughts.
it's not my fault.
it's what we never dreamed or hoped it was about,
but i just wanted to breathe the breath from your mouth.

(0369) still life abounds

light hits your eyes.
melts out everything around.
we keep waking up, and the world is sleeping through a war.
follow 'round until i catch up with myself. still life abounds.

one swing away, but i strike out.
humility and shame.
unravel with the weeds.
the cost of the day. probably higher than the pay.

hard to know these exponential fallacies.
i've covered so much ground, yet still i'm never found.
silence looks at you, and then it laughs at me.

(0368) beyond all doubt

you make me doubt myself.
you make the earth seem flat.
another paradigm.
another lens distorting.
an echo through the wormhole that led me to this place.
a bullet in my side if this were to ever end or go astray.

faster than what was known. somewhere new to call home.

the future's never certain.
of this, i know beyond all doubt.
that's why i write these words.
that's why we'll never figure life out.
i won't acknowledge a ceiling if we can get around it.
my blood's too convoluted to ignore what makes it flow.
