(Ah, summer break. A time for leisure. And takin' 'er easy. Unless you're me.)
and in your break from it all you hit the wake on the fall
trillion pixels in the parking lot of that sketchy mall
and last night when we woke up my lungs felt strangely out of place
can she reshape them with a matching grace
just, still, avoid my face
and with your skill as a hunter
i need you to lose my number
shouldn't you know?
you've been using her.
(Here we go.)

Bella, you're everything i hate
you're what makes me dread the mornings
why i wish i could stay away
Bella, you're the reason i can't sleep at night
a cold and callous parasite
i really just don't feel right now
i know that it's been tough lately
AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT
i know you still fucking hate me
but you know what i thought
(But my compliments kinda start and end there.)

It's exactly the same trick whether the tightrope is half a meter off the ground or eight meters off the ground. It's exactly the same thing.

only at the table cuz it needs me here
another fable on the wrong side of the mirror
everything is always out of order
if they're not one thing they're another
whose idea was this in the first place
i never signed up for a race
i hope when my chapped lips heal
they come on back completely sealed
arrhythmic and directionless
look what you've done, now i've made a mess
we both know the rules and make them right
i'm doing all i can to avoid a fight
my wires are chewed to the copper
elbows off the table, that hair isn't proper
i'll get off your back if you quit stabbing mine
would it cause you pain to take some time

so i took his wrist and spoke, "you'd never need this anyway"
she meant "for nothing more than that coin you hate to display"
its nails would have cut through, but i bit them down so we were okay
(and i would sooner go down in a ball of flames than lay here and be bored to death.)
the reserves can only get so high 'fore they break away
i wasn't there last night, what exactly did you play?
but i saw you at the doors, why did you not just stay?
(You and I don't live, Claire, we survive.)

an ep about stress, growing pains, potential, and how to deal with all of it. i'm not fully ready to be done with this one but i know that, given more time, i still wouldn't do any more do it. i'm still proud of it. i now have 15 minutes to put everything on here until midnight. update: i failed and it's now 1 am.
