about

A song about pedestals and clossure.

lyrics

[LYRICS]
Stream of consciousness shit.

Oh, my verse it just skipped a line
A year passes so fast but my ass of a brain reminds me
Of the laughs you made beside me, your attention and your time
Attentive, I was finding every second with you blinding
Like a light that seemed to guide me to what we could become
Got closer til I noticed that that light was just a zapper
And I was never a factor, just a stupid fly in love
The truth hit me like buzz, my wings were turned to dust
Like a Thanos snap, fell down to the mud, that was my habitat
Cuz that was where my head was at, felt so fucking crappy that I
Stopped seeking the happy, I’m just an ugly guy and that was that
But feelings aren’t facts, l’m more than tragic raps
You were important, and I told you when I had the chance
Gave the moment all I had, you weren’t down for that
I can’t be mad at that, I wish you happiness


Almost over getting wasted on you
Cleansing myself, your presence got me so high
Now I know more and this needs to die
Sigh, Remember when we were shy?
And I didn’t want to be your guy
I was just a passerby saying hi
Change the passer part to good…bye bye bye

Fuck

Oh, my verse just skipped a beat
I took a trip to Greece and surrounded myself with beaches
People seeking retreat from routines, the things they frequent it seems
A world is out there for me and good things happen despite
These feelings of unrequited love from someone I liked
And when I look through a microscope at that girl I liked
I see that she’s just a girl, imperfect living her life
She’s not an oracle determining my worth with a word
Not an avatar for me to get, no girlfriend award
Perhaps a muse that helped inspire passion when I was bored
But that’s unfair to both of us, it’s time to sever the cord
Support a less poisonous mental
Be thankful for the moments that we went through
Take all the love, time and thoughts I used to send you
And channel those things straight into me.


Almost over getting wasted on you
Cleansing myself, your presence got me so high
Now I know more and this needs to die
Sigh, remember when we were shy?
And I didn’t want to be your guy
I was just a passerby saying hi
Change the “passer” part to good…bye bye bye

Peace.
