lyrics

I can't read my words.
I can't read my handwriting anymore.

Rusted spirals in the spine of notebooks
houses dead skin of my fingers.

I can't read my words.
I can't read my handwriting anymore.

Paper cuts bite me like dobermans
as I tear out pages
where I was a super man.

I can't read my words.
I can't read my handwriting anymore.

I've had enough of these words.
Their soma's not working this time.

I've had enough
of this picture perfect
poetry that permeates
through blurry teenage angst.

I can't read my words.
I can't read my handwriting anymore.

I'll make these pages swell with emptiness
and no reminders of those better days.

I can't read my words.
I can't read my handwriting anymore.

Anemic, leather bound.
Wedding bells on mute.
Planets that I made are bursting.

I can't read my words.
I can't read my handwriting anymore.

I've had enough of these words.
Their soma's not working this time.

I just want to stop
hiding between blue lines,
watching clocks spill ink all over everything.
I just want to stop
hiding between blue lines,
watching clocks spill ink all over everything
everything
everything
everything
everything

These planets are bursting
as I float through other people's stars.
These planets are bursting
as I float through other people's stars.
These planets are bursting
as I float through other people's stars.
These planets are bursting
with no one to pull me out from outer space.

So I keep lit matches
close to blank pages
because I don't know
if I have anything left to say that matter.
