I know you've been there / moments of terror and crazy thoughts / when all you want is sleep
You try to shake them / with twenty pages of words that don't / say half of what you mean
They're selling everything I love / they're selling everything I love
Sometimes, I don't know,
it's like I get so
behind, I just go
"oh oh well...f*** it all."
Days when my alarm
kicks in like a bomb
and I'm up in arms again.
Not again.
I know enough to / mimic the right moves, the wink and nod / the smile and dodge
It helps convince them / that these foundations of middle class privilege that I have been given are solid as buildings
I'm solid as buildings
And selling everything I love / I'm killing anything that moves
Sometimes, I don't know,
it's like I get so
behind, I just go
"oh oh well...f*** it all."
Days when my alarm
kicks in like a bomb
and I'm up in arms again.
Not again.
Oh god / I'm not / prepared for this.
