Drifted ‘round for a little bit. Sold my soul and didn't give a shit, cuz who I am is what I love and what I love is fucking nothing. I don't really got no joy in me. I don't really got no friends to see. I don't really have anything to give up, cuz I never had anything to begin with. I'm always on some bullshit. I don't really fly out to space anymore cuz of reasons I don't wanna share here.
Do you ever feel your skeleton? Do you ever feel how small your body actually is adrift in this infinite abyss of shit? Such Joy. Don't forget to eat you gotta catch some sleep so you can go to work to have a bed to sleep in.

We sat on your floor on our third date at your old apartment back in Pickerington. You told me about your 21st Birthday when you puked out your guts watching It's Always Sunny. I told you about when I went to a frat house while visiting some friends. We tried to steal alcohol. We loaded our jackets full, cuz fuck those rich kid assholes. I was upstairs when they caught me so I jumped out the window.
Are we compatible?

It's you and me against the world--I guess it's just me. I'm exhausting and difficult and I'm bad at apologies, but I've been making changes. I'm trying to slow down and shake off all the demons that I've been dragging around cuz the only reason I'm alive right now is because I love you more than I hate myself. I'm sorry I ruined your birthday.

It's 4am and I'm still not home cuz I'm aware that I'll die alone. Stave off a new day, the only way of pushing back inevitability. I'm spoiling meat, I can't fucking sleep, and my mind is always wandering. I'm that sickening burn in the pit of your gut. I'm the scab that you rip from your cut. I'm the discomfort under your skin. I'm the sadness behind your grin. All my demons came back to my head. They came back. All my demons came back to my head to nest. All my demons came back to my head. All my demons came back to my head to nest. All my demons came back.

I've got this burning in my stomach, I doubt that you'd know what it's like. I got this brain that keeps me nervous, I think that I would rather die. Suffering succotash I don't think that this could last. I try to quell my temper so I clench my teeth. I can feel them cracking like my psyche. Negativity's a feedback loop that's infinite. I just want to feel happy again.
I hope that you can find your joy. I hope that you can feel some love.

1: You know it's a tricky thing, the notion of ego.
2: How so?
1: Like, am I myself or the projection of other people?
2: So is your identity just a means to get other people to like you?
1: Yeah like, our bodies enact the whims of the mush encased in our skulls and those brains mirror the structure of the universe.
2: Right
1: So we slap a smile on that and refer to it as people but maybe we're all a universe trapped inside of another. I guess it just depends on how you want to see it.
2: Sure.
1: But if it's as above then so below I kinda can't wait to be beneath cuz all I've ever sought is to feel something between these bodies that are isolating monuments to nothing that are all slowly expiring.
2: This seems like a very unhealthy way to think about reality.

You've been wasting your time waiting for life to click everything into place. I don't believe in things like fate: we'll die one day. It's really not that hard of a concept, it's just you get all caught up in the process. Still it ties a knot up and it occupies your chest as youth just keeps getting farther and farther away. I don't mean to be rude, I just wanna be real, I've been thinking about the way you used to come around and hang out all day but now I never hear from you and I'm pretty sure we're not even friends anymore. I've been thinking about the way you used to come around and hang inside my house all day but I supposed everything has to change.

Chicago Bowls (original)
by DikembeI remember when I first heard this album, I couldn't get enough. The album is actually one continuous song split into parts. I love what they did here and it's as good as it ever was.
