trading mediocrity for nothing
if you look up, you will find me.
throwing something i've been building out the highest window i can find.
from my trembling fingertips
to the sidewalk under your feet
i'll carve a perfect moment between here and the street far below.
recreating feelings only found in accidents
one night i lost a lover who could make me cry again
because nothing hits as hard or cuts quite as deep.
i need to feel time and time again
that loss of control that only animals can get.
ravenous consumption, every burning second, sharks and blood.
if you try to forget it, you're only gonna regret it.
standing, staring at destruction
god it hurts like hell to know you gotta
disassemble what you loved to know you loved it.
if you try to forget it, you're only gonna regret it.
i think there's a lesson to be found here.
