lucky

you lucky fucker you always get your way

but not for much longer.

you got so god damned rich stomping on

and stealing from the poor.

revamped for ridicule and lies

to make sure you get yours -

even whats mine

you saw me. I saw you.

everything you saw remains intact.

every time you scream i feel relaxed.

you lucky fucker you never get tossed

or sent by the way side

at the very least its been a while.

you saw me. I saw you.

everything you saw remains intact.

every time you scream i feel relaxed.

you saw me. I saw you.

you’re sorry. what will that do?

you harm me then waste my time.

you’re hardly the first i told to fuck off.

 

 

cages

all of us aren’t free

no matter how much

you want it to be

true

cages with bars

bars that you can’t see

youre not in charge

of a single thing

if you’re not alarmed

you took the poison

we’ve all been harmed

more than more

we all live down there

what will it take to rise?

we’ve been gutted. its not subtle

taught to grind each other down

too tired to fight once we’ve grown

stronger, smarter

 

 

battles

waiting for what you’re going to say

pacing in hopes that you don’t stay

stories of battles

has me too rattled

something that scatters

don’t be too flattered right now

biding my time as long as i can

biting my tongue as long as i can

 

 

alarms

woke up with blood on the sheets

and

crawled out walking zombie steady

hey, feel, sing la la la la

ive made a bed with broken

glass

slept through all these fucking alarms

you wake slow

dead to the world

time to pack up and go live

 

 

the method

how soon we’re forgetting ties

untying like old shoes that

wore down, end up on a wire

came crying for you and your

your method

the reason piled

its empty

with you

the method

its easing up

forgetting

its you

too soon we’re untying time

lost in tracking moments

tick down, end up on a spire

like old shoes on a wire

refrain

i feed the need for

you and i

ive been held up for

your time

cannons:

aim isnt right - locked to deadlights

loose and frail

heart in a sling, arrows in sight:

target made

this idea set on repeat

transmission failed

send me a written letter I will

fall for you

how can i get to you

when im lost too?

these cannons oft times

just cave in line with you.

aim isnt right - locked to deadlights

loose and frail

heart in a sling, arrows in sight:

target made

this idea set on repeat

transmission failed

send me a written letter I will

fall for you

trails and blurred vision

wasted my decision

these cannons oft times

just cave in line with you.

 

in vane:

 

hate in vane

make me carry things that dont evolve

lost my space

makes me see you cant own anything

detach from things. let go and sing

with me.

it passes so fast. without warning you are

wondering where it’s gone

(then yelling come back)

waste in prayer

hope in things that never come to be.

wake in place

look for gratitude and peace of heart

 

 

unlucky

the things you’d do for a second chance,

a second glance, another life,

another time, another line...

when you get right down to it

youre just held up with bad luck

just hold on. its gonna be alright.

we’ll see the first light tomorrow.

just hold on. its gonna be alright

if youre willing to fight.

what determines who we are?

or where we’re born and what we get?

do you believe in anything that you

cant see?

i hope to fuck theres something else.

just hold on. its gonna be alright.

we’ll see the first light tomorrow.

just hold on. its gonna be alright

if youre willing to fight.

while we waste our time wishing away

theres someone way more unlucky.

what the fuck - if this isnt a drill.

theres someone way more unlucky.
