lyrics

Blood blisters on my palms from gripping on too tight
to departed partners/empty confidants. Knuckles white
attempt to grip relationships/hourglass sands.
Fear of missing out synthesized inside my glands. Maybe
I should stop the search for substance in the social,
manifest vasectomy/solitude in SoCal.
Relations season life. Take the suffering bland;
it's just salt in the wound of the scratches on my right hand

Paper-cut friendships supply stimuli, but
the cuts add up and bleeding out's a messy way to die and
what's life but the pursuit of a comfortable grave? Not
spilling my guts might make it easier to attain.
I'm lonelier at this wedding than when I am alone.
I spilled my drink at this wedding and I wish I were alone.
I took the bus, drunk, from this wedding. Now I am alone.
Hopefully I'll fall asleep and into a coma
'cause

Honestly most of the people I've met
make me wish I had somewhere to hide away.
The trade-off is if I cut myself off
I'd probably never learn or ever change.
Honestly most of the people I've met
have had me searching for the fire-escape.
Deeply considering
locking in on my Myers-Briggs
type.

Blood blisters on my palms from gripping on too tight,
my only move; I never really learned how to fight
or say "no" to anyone (including myself.)
Puts a timer on my friendships and declining mental health.
You never disappoint if you never leave your residence
and now I'm closer to the cusp. I'm on the goddamn precipice
of blocking all the doors/nerve endings.
At this point severance is better than pretending cause'

honestly most of the people I've met
make me wish I had somewhere to hide away.
The trade-off is if I trim the excess
I'd probably never learn or ever change.
Honestly most of the people I've met
remind of that dick who wrote "Slide Away".
If I can hold out for a few decades
maybe this planet will burst into flames.
