Heading South

Lately I see his name, how it drips down the walls
My thoughts perplex, you wonder why he scoffs and balls
The real bears down so cruel, with force I cannot fight
Which of my heads will rear its head and show itself tonight?
I don’t know but I’m starting to lose all hope
Voices change, as do the winds, it’s cold in the north so I am headed south
From within on a whim it’s a sin to just let it all go
And a promise is nothing but feeble intentions of the soul
I made the most of my mistakes
My word-stained tongue is my disgrace
They bled the hope from out my nose, it drips on my hands - I thought they were my friends
Just speak, don’t think, let go, don’t blink because you’ll miss your chance - I don’t want to live like this
Oh wait, what’s this? Stop there, you blinked, well, so did I.
Still I’m scared to think what you and I oh brother we could do to spite
And I’m aware that it’s something you cannot bear
And I see him still walk down my road
Looks like life has made him pay his tolls
Can you tell him for me I still care?
I still care.

Teeming with uncertainty in the face of death
You don’t know where you’re going and you don’t know meant
I know something but you don’t wanna hear
You think it’s not important but I’ll make myself clear
That if you try and chase it to your bloody end
And burdens are a load that’s just too heavy to suspend
I guess I’ll have to wonder just what it is
What it is about you that makes me jerk and cringe
This happened to you
And you don’t want to know
I’ll speak it real slow
Then you finally noticed it wasn’t how you thought
That piece of me you kept alone you thought would suit the clot
I guess I should’ve figured it was nothing but an excuse
To drag me down, belittle me, that’s nothing but abuse
Cold turkey, try again
Hold me, time’s feeling thin
As are my veins, nothing’s further from the truth
Than everything you’ve done, you can’t believe it was you

Like this
I would’ve had no other way to go
Reminisce
About all those times I swore to you
That I would never ever have to leave your way
Yet still I pose a question
Is this a prophecy that we cannot evade?
Two hearts so full of promise
You never would’ve guessed the things you said today would slap you in the face
My words they were ever so true
Still it won’t be long till I'm cracking at the dawn of my own death, we're not here to stay
Well I take it this ain’t coming back today
So I kick my feet and eat the dirt as I let your body whisk my morals away
It won’t be for too long, that’s what you say
But there's things we can’t control, these habits are so toxic I’m in disarray
Bake it to a brutal crisp
Flaking off reality
Oh well, there go
all of my motherfucking boundaries
It’s so hot, you know it’s so hot
But I can’t even take it anymore
It’s so wrong, you know it’s so hot
Still, I cannot shake it
What’s this
A little moment that I’ve held onto
For too long
By the time I’ve read what’s on your palm
I know by then that it’ll definitely be too late
But now that I’m older, stronger or weaker
I’ll tell you now just get the fuck away
And so I go back to the streets
With a paper in my hand, gotta find someone who’s gonna give me what I need
Cause I’ve got it to shine
I know now things I should’ve known back when I was your age I was a fool
Those breathless nights, they took me away
So much so that I found just a little too late
It took some time but I’m back up on my feet
I’m kicking ass right behind the people that used to doubt me
Alright, I said sorry
What more could you have asked of me
It’s not like I hate you
But then again what you said to me
Was so wrong, it wasn’t okay
So I cannot forgive you, not today
It’s so hot, you know it’s so hot
And I can’t even shake it
No
