Today will always be the day That I had struggled to get by And even though one day I'll die I know this and yet still I try People don't care how I live Or how much effort I can give. They only care about themselves Like I and everybody else It's not the same to say that you Aren't you, you're just somebody who (WHO AM I) Is digging through the endless muck And blaming it all on your luck (WHY OH WHY) The world's not gonna change for you No matter if you want it to (I WANT I WANT I WANT) The best that you could ever do Is understand that this is true (SOUNDS LIKE FUN) Happiness, it does exist Uncommon moments of true bliss Which I know I have felt before Although I've felt unhappy more. Should I really live for those I ask and yet nobody knows For they have questions of their own The answers to which are unknown People think your happy Just because you have a pretty face (PICTURE PURRFECT) So they treat you badly And they try to put you in your place (IS IT WORTH IT) Jealousy is sadly The only form of evidence (I WANT I WANT I WANT) I've ever had to show me That the grass is green outside my fence (SOUNDS LIKE FUN) Everything that can happen Will happen and does happen All the time Everything that can happen Will happen and does happen All the time All the time

Something about the weirdness of your appearance How you slithered up to me and you were frothing at me Something about the queerness in the sheerness Of your irrelavence to me and your anonimity helped me Discover that I have these Internal feelings are heavy Discover that I have these Internal feelings are heavy Something about the room around your backseat Helped me retreat to a place where I could feel alone Something about the things inside you suitcase Helped me lay to waste any fondness I could feel for home Something about the things inside your bedroom Gave me headroom and helped me figure you out Something about that thing inside your ribcage Helped me turn the page so I could figure you out and Discover that I have these Internal feelings are heavy Discover that I have these Internal feelings are heavy

Zapatos 04:51
Destroy your shoes So your feet don't weigh you down When you're walking around town What have you got to lose When your arches are so round Parallel to the ground Remember The earth is round And a straight line Is always the quickest route, bullshit I wanna see you dig me hole to China And that is where I'll find ya Hopefully without shoes Without shoes or you lose Deploy the ruse Let the rigid become round Let the missing become found What have you got to lose But the shriek-enducing sound Of your brains being ripped out Slow and steady Wins the race But you're fucked If you get chased Cuz no one will show you mercy, especially if you're slow The symmetry of the human race A city can be replaced On one end Seattle On the other Jersey City And they look the same to me Ponte los sombreros Quitarse zapatos Ponte los sombreros Quitarse zapatos

Microbiology 03:14
Horizontal lines Of light through the blinds reminds me Of all the times When I've tried and tried to find me How am I not myself How can I be someone else Will someone describe me to me How am I not myself With all I've put upon the shelf My life feels like a movie Punishment and crimes We're all supervised Natural selection Social interaction is how we survive How am I not myself What can I say to someone else Who could so clearly define me I peek out of my little shell To look beyond heaven and hell and what do I see All that matters is I see And I am free Of the shadow puppetry On the silk screen We're all made up of little cells Don't think of it as anything else We're all made up of little cells Don't think of it as anything else I peek out of my little shell To look beyond heaven and hell We're all made up of little cells Don't think of it as anything else

Coffee 05:12
You need to get paid But you want less hours Rainy April days Left you no May flowers The coffee in your dreams Wakes you with a shout Some like theirs with cream But you take yours without You take yours without it (You take it one cup at a time) Lie awake and think about it (You take yours and I'll take mine) You can't catch a break (Addiction is not a crime) Yeah you're drowning in a lake (Give us what we want and we'll be fine) Of dark black coffee Everyday I'm at school Learning how to be cynical Forgetting how to be cool And thinking everything's clinical All day I wait For the chance to dream But I stay awake Drinking coffee with cream You take yours without it (You take it one cup at a time) Lie awake and think about it (You take yours and I'll take mine) We can't catch a break (Addiction is not a crime) I think we're drowning in a lake (Give us what we want and we'll be fine) Of dark black coffee If you're really going blind You should close your eyes So you'll see what you wanna see The images you'll find Are ones you'll recognize Life doesn't end just because you fall asleep No it only gets deeper and deeper and deeper And darker and darker and darker Black is the color Bitter is the flavor Heavy is the texture Even through a filter It's deeper and darker And bitter in flavor It's deeper and darker But bolder and richer It's stronger and warmer than The container that it sits in It's stronger and warmer And it brings us to the kitchen
