Can't look at my reflection
Or myself in the eye
Putting blame on all their faults
Knowing damn well it's a lie
I've grown tired of deflection
My armor has been pierced
I'm bleeding out from my guts
Realized my worst fears
& then there's you
A physical manifestation
Of every mistake I've ever made
I'll euthanize your memory & that look on your face
& you'll live to see the day I win.
Then I'll shove it in your face
I'll make sure you don't forget
They call me the kid that's got screaming in her head
Shut your mouth & listen up
I got a message to deliver
I see you when you sleep & when you shake & when you shiver
Alone
Not even close.
Can't pick up my heavy feet
My skin is filled with sand
I'm drowning in a dirty sea
Gripping a rescue hand
I'm so tired of trying to beat
The hell out of myself
It seems to me that a life well lived
Is a life upon a shelf
& then there's me
A brutal incarceration
Of a broken soul behind my bones
I'll make someone adopt it so that it won't be my problem
I think it's time for a better home
& then I'll wrap it in a blanket
& I'll leave it on a porch
I'll sign a note that says,
"You found it now it's yours,
Please do what you can because it's barely hanging on
If you knew the shit it's seen, guarantee that you'd be
Gone & safe"
Not even close.
D: Close
J: There's nowhere you can run & there's nowhere you can hide
I'm living in your heart & in your soul & in your mind
There's nowhere you can run & there's nowhere you can hide
Want you to believe that I'm always by your side when I'm
Not even close.
Then I'll shove it in your face
I'll make sure you don't forget
They call me the kid that's got screaming in her head
Shut your mouth & listen up
I got a message to deliver
I see you when you sleep & when you shake & when you shiver
Alone
Not even close.

Holy shit, just grade my test
It's a fuckin' scantron
You could make a TA do it
You can't really go wrong
I just need to know if I am passing your class
So I can just chill & sit on my lazy ass
Holy shit, just grade my test
It's a fuckin' scantron
How am I supposed to learn this shit
If I don't know what I got wrong?
I just want an A, is that so much to ask?
But I'd take a B or C because then I still would pass.
Holy shit, just grade my fucking shit.
Bitch.
