Stagnancy

Dont let the norm tell you how to respond when youre trying not to puke in your suit from the stagnancy
Youve got ideas dont keep them to yourself
Give your mind the opportunity for conversational wealth
Youve got to calm down so you can think outside the game society makes you play
Ive got no tolerance for any intolerance of respectful originality
He takes the easy route and wears his cheeks out with a night of phony smiles
The mandatory consequence what should have been said runs around his head for miles
calm down so you can think outside the game society makes you play
Youve got no time to waste despite what the glaciers around you might say but they dont care about you theyre lying, go
Those of you who truly express what you choose
Hard times are gonna come to you
And those who say what is genuine in them everyday
Hard times are gonna come your way
But dont ever conform youre independant
Dont ever fall for the lure of acceptance

Another Sore Sight

Mistaken promises introspection all night
You qualify to keep me stirring
Its a commom occurance isnt that nice
The letters and lights all blurring
It comes to this place every damm time
I never want you to worry
Delayed selected another sore sight
My stance and your pride are sturdy
I feel so helpless and i want to quit everything
But i cant do it cause i wont be anything
Im fucking trapped here and nothing helps
But as the season melts away
And my regeneration gives way
Well i see that tomorrow may brighten my mind so i can sleep

That Naive Drive

sometimes i fear that i
might be at a high
that this might be the highest point of my life
i breathe relief as i
note in real time
that its arcane but still a pain is in my side anyway
i see youre breaking down
looking at the ground
the wrong place to put that thought to sound
youll never leave this town
that is so profound
no second though to possibilities surround
i haven't fought the haze
to keep myself awake
in so long it feels miraculous to me
i had that naive drive
it made me feel alive
i know that i can get it back if i surive
give it back to me
give me what they all take for granted
i would never waste it for a second
