milk 03:35
Case of hamms and I reek from old cigarettes Watch the twins win with a walk off bunt I’m so diy all my tops are band shirts Dead bands outnumber the active ones As I get older life feels like a museum Memories are taken and put on shelf All the houses I went to now are shut down But scene is timeless and other ones take their place I am milk and I am sitting On the counter all night and when you Find me in the morning ill be sour Pour me down the kitchen sink Not an inch of open space on the coffee table Decorated with beer cans and open handles. Every sticker ive ever gotten paints the table with nostalgia. many are peeling from spilled booze The other day my roommate got drunk on her birthday and fell into it. The table was destroyed marking the end of an era All things must come and go Im boiling in a lake of fire Break under the pressure of the sun I thrash and struggle but it is not helping Its a fight that can’t be won I am milk and I am sitting On the counter all night and when you Find me in the morning ill be sour Pour me down

marionette 03:19
Skin flayed Knife has been laid In my sternum and it’s running down my chest Tied to Strings used to control me Love when you control me just like your marionette I’m losing the fight Of keeping you out of my mind I’ve tried to quit Tell myself that it’s the end of it I guess I’ve strung myself along Brain rot Grey matters been lost The phone is ringing but there’s nobody at home Eyes crossed My jaw has been dropped My mouths wide open and pulling my teeth out

dead skin 03:10
It’s all a heap of broken images Feel the ache beating out my chest The sufferings of the moon will end When sun rises and tells it to go to bed Wearing dead skin you peered into my veins Reassured my shaking limbs that everything is the same My open wounds you dressed them up with gauze Shards of glass from broken beer bottles Fill the cracks of the place we call our home I’m the ghost living in the walls Haunting you up and down the halls Wearing your clothes like a mirror I saw myself Watched my ego as it burns and cracks and fades and melts Looked at my hands and I all i saw was bone Everything is covered in paint Covered up and then sealed away Cemented and then thrown in a lake Everything is covered in paint

I’m addict of hate I’m a junkie of rage I can not resist Each mornings the same Read some awful takes About my rights to exist I do it to myself My own personal hell Is taking it’s shape all around me I let it in And I let it win So why do I complain I’m a twitter masochist And I deserve to feel like this Anita go to sleep Why do I care what a Kansas terf thinks The cycle feels like something sold to me Can’t blame the user using’s a disease The dealer knows what they got and nothing comes free

In your new found skin Smile came from your fake grins Its nice to meet you But I feel like I’ve know you all of this time, all of this time, is all of it I wish that I could Protect you from everything I know you know what you got yourself into please know that I have been trying and trying All of this time, All of this time, Is all of it I know its hard To be the person you know you are Youre not alone At least we have each other I feel so guilty for how bad Hatred of us has grown Cause all my sisters before me Made this a safer home

Cackling with our blood on their hands Coven of only fake tear hags Why do they want to watch us die Why do they laugh at suicides Terfs will not get into heaven Nazi scumbags are their brethren Terfs will not get into heaven Nazi scumbags are their brethren Choke on your bigotry and hate I’ll never forget the lives you take Girl bossing sexist fascism I’ll never forgive what you have done And every cis person that doesn’t stand up Is as guilty of our deaths as transphobes And I dont fucking care if this is too much I am not an issue This is such a nightmare I am so afraid I just want a future Dont let this be our grave

I saw the devil in Portland Was in my dream last night As I was trying to fall asleep In stared at me with his bright red eyes Been on tour for two weeks Driving all alone That’s enough to drive anyone crazy But I know what I saw It’s presence I can feel Know this sounds unreal But I have never felt like this before And I still have to go and play a show I can see it everywhere 666 license plate Black cat staring me down Poster of a devil being let out Evil engulfs me Next night I hardly sleep And I can’t wait to get the hell away From here and go and go and go and go

Thought I saw your face At a show I played the other day I called out your name But you didn’t look my way I don’t know what I even would have said to you To tell the truth It’s been 7 years and I have not heard a peep from you Hope your doing alright but the last time I saw you you’d lost your god damn mind Prepping months of food windows covered up saying that they’re coming for you Getting high and video games Making tunes occasionally Scraping for one last resin bowl Like some miners digging for gold I still wish you well And I miss you like hell And I don’t know what I even would have said to you To tell the truth It’s been 7 years and I have not heard a peep from you Hope your doing alright but the last time I saw you you’d lost your god damn mind All I really wanted from that night was just to know that you’re okay

sliver 03:53
Waiting outside in Dinkytown he’ll pick me up Wearing what he wanted Gets there late and I hop in his truck See his yellow teeth when he smiles at me His skin is damp and wet form all the oil and grease He puts his hand on my leg and I hold back a shriek Then we drive away I can’t drive by a parking garage with out the urge to cry I don’t know why it sticks with me it wasn’t even the worst time I was sad and I was desperate but I can’t move on I can’t run away I can’t shake the haunt Although he paid I can’t live with the cost He knows what he took and I know what I got He’s a festering sliver his presence will remain And even if sometimes I forget I will never be the same

dog shit 2 03:56
Spider on a web Feed off the dead Feed off their agony Does it need to eat Starvation or gluttony Or maybe it just enjoys the kill Watching me struggle Licking its lips I can feel you eating me up Laughing as you spit up my blood Grinding up my bones in your teeth You’re the dying tooth I can’t remove And you’re spreading your rot And I give you the power And it’s eating me up You are just a cavity But i know you’ll never leave And any filling will just wear down Know I’ll just have to pull it out.
