The death of life and why it'll never happen
The plan was, get really high and watch golden girls.
Halfway through an episode called “the operation” it dawns on you that it’s so perfect because you’ve been accused of not trying so many times that when you really lose your head and try too hard you can hide it behind trying to counteract that you’ve been accused of not trying so many times.
The point of...

Wasting Height
I wish someone would give me bad directions on how to get lost.
The feast for a beast less believed in
Here comes hope Just passin’ through But he taught me How do act like the normal kids do All we wanted To watch the water rise They sank their teeth When they heard our replies To just wanting to watch us bleed To wishing rain on our parades To flickering goals and digging holes With our hearts to be their spades
No No No I won’t let this go a second further No No No Face to face with...
Not easy, Necessary
I drank until the glass half full looked half-empty to me And if you don’t believe these words are true then you probably don’t need them to be My opening act is a train off-track What a hell of a thing to follow But it’s a standing rule to make you feel full Cuz you don’t burn the same when you’re hollow Standing tall, in the rain for all Of the kids behind the...
Candy, rotted teeth and why I fucking hate sweets.
I’m just so tired.
It’s so easy to get lost in helping someone find themselves.
If you read this you should know that so far, even at 23 years old, I’ve still never gotten used to realizing that things aren’t ever gonna be the way they were.
Happiness is a hyper-active kid on Halloween, and it just gets so goddamned hard realizing that the mask he had on yesterday...

Lost Angels in Hell
Could anyone please, just tell me How could giving your all turn out so wrong? Fairy-tales seem too optimistic If there’s a silver lining here then I missed it Paint it black I’m taking back All the “let me count the ways” that I listed I probably won’t be the last Standing by the road while you speed past But baby I’ll be the first to tell This isn’t...
glitter related injuries
can’t say you don’t consume me anymore like I ever outgrew you and for every bit of wrong you are
I can’t help but believe you’re my little evil And maybe all your spikes could plug all the holes in me
I see right through you Right through me same difference truth is I’m half a dollar bill and you’re the other half we’re not worth a single thing if...

“you can’t afford to think like that…”
what if it’s broken? what if it’s that machine that’s stuck on one setting and you can wiggle the handle and mess with the innards but it doesn’t help?
maybe before you go lifeless you go voiceless by default of no one listening if no one hears are you really making noise anyway?

Pitchfork: Did you ever worry that “Beth/Rest”, which is very sincere, would be mislabeled as ironic or was it more like, “Fuck it, I love the way this sounds”?
Justin Vernon: The latter— and by being overly proud of that fact, I could totally inch myself into a corner of being insecure about it. But I literally just don’t give a shit. I love that song. I...

“Turn this song into a prayer”
I’ve always subscribed to the idea that we were CONSTANTLY on the verge of something amazing, that every second is the second before we become something truly great. And so, in turn, I never gave up on the idea that EVENTUALLY the sun was gonna shine and I was going to finally become beautiful, that shining perfection we so desire almost...
I'mma be straight up with anyone who reads this...
I wanna use tumblr to vent. There’s an overwhelming possibility your name might come up in both positive AND negative instances. So I’m over filtering me, I am not coffee. You will not enjoy aromas and tastes and then just throw the grounds in the trash like they never meant shit.
So deal with it.
That said: I am trying SO hard to offend people lately because I need to phase out a...
I am too weak to be your cure.
“I don’t know how to feel anymore. I don’t know what is real anymore.” The clock runs like it’s in a marathon And I wish so bad I could sing the right notes. I don’t have a clue how to dance But it never meant “no” for an answer I sure as hell tried And the rest got what they paid for And I’m sorry for what it’s worth

Run This Town
I don’t really know what I’m doing here anymore. You know that voice inside you that KNOWS everything will be ok no matter how choppy the waters at sea get? That voice whispers to me the directions step by step on how to disengage. Like he doesn’t believe in me at all.
I just want to flourish again. That feeling of being right and doing right, Do Right And Kill Everything. I...

WatchMy great grandma Violet passed away at the beginning of this week and she had such an incredible and profound impact on my life from the ground up. In many ways she helped raise not only her kids, but their’s (my mom and aunt) and their’s (my sister and I). So to honor a truly beautiful life I wrote this song (not that it could ever measure up). But, the longer I worked on it the more...
Words I Never Said...
I don’t understand what it is about this song but the new Lupe Fiasco single hits me so hard.
Danny and Josh brought people back here tonight and I’ve been sneaking little tear drops when no one looked. I’ve been working on my paper and periodically tearing up, it just touches something in me I haven’t felt for a long time.
I think I’m just in a weird place right...

Remember…
…when the moon was the first thing you remembered about the best night of your life?
…when the lead singer put the mic in your face and made you sing the chorus?
…when you thought you were gonna need surgery from laughing so hard?
…when you found yourself crying just a little?
…when we were the kids that glowed in the dark?

Welcome Back To Tumblr Pt. 2
Can’t sleep because I’m afraid of what I’d dream about. But I’m afraid of my dreams because of what I’ve been awake for. Seriously never felt this awful in my life. I legit feel like an accomplice to murder. And what’s worse is I tried to vent how there’s a black hole inside me sucking all the light from the stars I worked so hard to create to...
Welcome Back To Tumblr Pt. 1
Of all the lies that I have told This one never does get old “I will never ever ever change No, not for anybody”
I have found a better way To not make a mess of my clean getaway Sticks and stones may break your bones But this is gonna hurt like hell And he sings Kind of like the way that the sea stings And the waves will pull you under Every move you make sounds like thunder In the...

I ran into this wall and it hurt everyone inside me and no one outside me. Nick and Nicholas and NICK FUCKING MORROW and “oh my god I miss you” Nick all stand in this funny little circle with whatever weapon they could grab on their way out the door and they’ve got this awful “Oli Sykes” kinda look at each other.
You start to feel like you’re in high school...

It felt like the worst “empty stomach pain” you’ve ever had. When you haven’t eaten for hours and hours or even days and it just hurts and you feel hollow and miserable. It was like that but without the pain and twice the hollow.

Blindness Is Overwhelming
<title reserved for later>
...here's the thing
I’m so so bored. Even the people that think they’re moving are just going in circles. We get it you “just wanna leave this place.” It sounds good and gives you good rep for being a vagabond and a wanderer but you’re none of those things, we just have a misconception on what those words actually mean.
Give me a year. Get my degree towards something that actually...

…I empathize with Petey now How do you stay Fall Out Boy when you’re happy boy?
I’m happy as I’ve ever been almost, looking to purchase all the other “parts sold separately” soon.
There’s a lot of stuff in the happeningz. And my lack of internet at home has hindered my ability to keep up on here. So I’m just gonna have to try harder goddammit!

i don’t remember the foreplay or the party we met at. i know we came with seperate groups and left together so now I’m starting to question who had the burden of our sloppy make out in the backseat.

when i stepped up to the microphone everyone stepped up to the stage and pretended like i had something interesting to say even though they knew damn well they didn’t actually care. and i was gonna tell them about all the ways i’ve loved and hated and smiled and cried in the last two years about the same goddamned things and the reason they should care is they had

acting like he’s the only one enlightened to Kerouac. as if all his little secrets are secrets at all.
Something, someone, some spirit was pursuing all of us across the desert of life and was bound to catch us before we reached heaven.

"I'm here for your entertainment"...
And you’re just dumb enough to still be entertained. And the sad part is when you scream “I’M OVER THIS I’M DONE I’M THROUGH” you’re just trying to scream loud enough that it echoes in your ears long enough to remind you that “you’re over this, you’re done, you’re through.”
Echoes fade honey bee.
And, as foretold, so has my...

less than perfect, more than enough, the boy with the bare hands out on the field cuz he can’t find his lucky mitt and would rather feel that sting on his palms than borrow someone else’s.

our bodies together in this cemetary weather

the saddest song that ever lived died today
Windows down, cuz I can breathe when it’s windy And I’m feelin’ so empty I was resilient ‘til now And this night, it felt like an ambush I can’t even stand to look Bury me in the clouds Here’s love, and I don’t care if you’re angry Cuz I swear that it saved me You should let it save you I think, that I just might be worth it I’ll act so...
