take me out back, feed me to the dogs it kills me to say, you were right about it all was there when I was young, way too scared to admit it all just piled up, so I ran from it you're telling me to stand up straight but there's a curve in my spine no words to convey, bent out of shape all the time all the time

please don't set me down, please don't leave it like you do it's cruel and comfortable picking me up when you choose to I don't wanna go, I won't give it a break I don't wanna make more of these mistakes I don't wanna know, I can't give it away watching from the floor with a smile, it stains please don't up and run, please don't lie, I know your tell finally met someone that treats me like I treat myself I don't wanna go, I won't give it a break I don't wanna make more of these mistakes I don't wanna know, I can't give it away watching from the floor with a smile, it stains smiling for the camera watching where you end up flash covers the hands of someone new

go throw on that martyr skin you're life's so crazy, yeah that's it you know exactly how it's been that's fine, that's fine it's all on them go throw on that martyr skin fuck that shit I'm not alright, flip that script and pay no mind look both ways and let me die I can stand to pay you mine I went to bat for you, even on darker days I wish we never promised that we would share a name plotted on california, dry lips and cellophane semi-sure, it's a blur I ate the whole thing I can't bend to pay you time crawling sick, it's still on sight playing victim, running lines so uncertain, still a crime good enough to take your love I've heard it all, it hurt too much I'm camera shy, I'll keep my clothes on go throw on that martyr skin you're life's so crazy, yeah that's it you know exactly how it's been that's fine, that's fine it's all on them

I'll admit that I've been selfish I'll take the blame for this but you know it's not helping when you twist the knife again never turning my back even though I've gone mad I know you feel bad, that's why I'm still protecting you I still neglect the truth I'm still protecting you, protecting me, protecting you I don't know what to do when I can't tell the truth the trip's too arduous, it's a lot to unpack "are you off of it?" you dismiss it just like that smash my head against the wall so we can see which one gets cracked I think that I've got a hunch, no, you never had my back (no you never had my back no, but I'm still) protecting you I still neglect the truth I'm still protecting you, protecting me, protecting you I don't know what to do when I can't tell the truth
6.
you wanna celebrate? smash in my face it's never been okay but it's been the same it's been the same could never navigate the clouds in my brain I guess it's been okay but I miss your face I miss your face

I've got indifference buried in my blood, I know I'm lousy with the stuff tough luck, your touch is not enough to heal the wound, quick stitch the cut bad all day, caught you on this side of the street we could be talking, I wish I wish I wish you- I wish you would come fuck me up it hurts in waves you're in my guts I've had enough of talking sadder stuff we're falling out of touch we don't know what we had, my love (I think I might go crazy, you don't want me around?) chase that fix like we know how, this my cue, I'll see you out oxytocin, mouth-to-mouth old dog, but you never seem to put me down it's a bitch, and it never quite comes around sore throat but you could still do the snooki shout, took the rookie route, baby threw the bookie out, way I'm throwing money, trust gets muddy when you took a mile I wish you would come fuck me up it hurts in waves you're in my guts I've had enough of talking sadder stuff we're falling out of touch we don't know what we had, my love chase that fix like we know how, this my cue, I'll see you out oxytocin, mouth-to-mouth

I TALK ALOT MAKE QUICK DECISIONS ON THE SPOT SECRET PRECISION WITH A KNOT I AM THE ONE, I AM THE MOB I TALK ALOT
12.
say something nice to me again I'm so strung out, I'm in my head watching home movies I just want to play pretend laying around, I'm always off maybe I need a little sun retching alright, through the run something nice, I won't try to fight no it's not okay, it's not alright feel okay, spot me through the sights technically still technicolor, heard it's not the same in those days fanning through the rage I'm tryna hang on something nice, yeah what's the price? what's it worth to feel alright? yeah, what's the gripe? I just wanna go, I feel the flight shit, I'm done, let it run sit and shudder technically technicolor
13.
take it out on me, when you need to talk breaking out of sleep, think of minutes lost in the sleeper seats said you'd see me off, guess we'll wait and see I'm in the wrong, and in my head guarding tall, under your bed say it softly just like that, undressed all the shit I dread DAYKILLER I wanna get raw, red in the face sick little smile, indulge in the space DAYKILLER ripping out my teeth, laying in the lawn I can't say my piece found the feeling dull I'll be what you need if you need me gone, guess we'll wait and see got me inside, yeah hoping it died, yeah break in and hide it, before they buy it DAYKILLER I wanna get raw, red in the face sick little smile, indulge in the space DAYKILLER taken, I opt in to play off, that passive bullshit you paint on happy birthday a day wrong, know I'm the worst, shit, I can't stall blank disc, you copy and play on drop in, and opt out at take off slow drift, awake on the way home one flip and slip and the day's gone
14.
tell me would you really miss me if I did it? really saw it finished, really saw the vintage lights around my neck, tilted tight instead, choking out the breaths this ain't leverage baby, I don't need proof I don't need help know I need to speak out for myself when I can't see through all the negatives strung up now I'm glowing brighter, I put that baggage on my little brother have him sitting, swollen up with wonder all of the dark shit that we never brought up how I hate that I can't live a normal life, I said it twenty times, I feel it passing by dull the jagged crawl, seconds at a time live a real life or reach the finish line I, I won't pass on this pain
15.
charged conversations with myself stand up straight, fix your belt cry for help when it gets bad, I know way too many people who don't do that salutations, firm grasp swear you called your mother's name no, I heard that a sideways talker, an absurd laugh won't be long til my dirt nap in a bird bath problem on my right hand, gotta let it go minutes on my left that I need to keep close I got sights on the toll, I intend to pay in full watching from the stands, pay attention to the call indecisive, like you wanna switch up don't fight it, keep it like a rainy day fund no slighting, I just wanna see you get up I'm smiling, gritting as it's ripping my gums (lil instrumental jam) problem on my right hand, gotta let it go minutes on my left that I need to keep close I got sights on the toll, I intend to pay in full watching from the stands, pay attention to the call indecisive, like you wanna switch up don't fight it, keep it like a rainy day fund no slighting, I just wanna see you get up I'm smiling, gritting as it's ripping my gums
