about

written in my freshman year dorm room (strong 420)

lyrics

Yesterday I lost my favorite sneakers
But I found them under the bleachers
And now I’m crying at the news
I’m not crying over you
I’ve been thinking about lying
And how it takes a bit of trying
To pump your veins with silver and blues
But I’m hoping I’ll just cruise

I’ve got a list of people that I have kissed
And I get bored quick ‘cause this is half-assed poetry
Not self-abuse, I’ve come up with an excuse
But I’m getting used to it it’s just psychiatry

I’m just lying on the sofa
Like a drugged out supernova
And you call me an adult
What a god damn great insult
Love to feel the post-party haze
And extra vacation days
Put on my shades when it’s dark outside
Try not to backslide

But lists are only quantifiable
And they make my love deniable
When the details are erased
As my excuses turn to cop-outs
My choices turn to doubt
And I feel like it’s a waste
