lyrics

Upon the moon, I am nothing
Upon nothing I am the moon
Upon life, I am trying
Upon the net, I can fall right through

To not understand rejection when I’m not to care
But that’s what happens when the value of impressions, you bare

Scratch the scabs from the back of my throat
It’ll be fine, they were just hope
Let that useless blood flow into my stomach
It’ll be fine, I’ve gotten used to being sick

Sandcastles
They’re filth
They fall
Dissolve
Fickle with the ocean tide

Little army men
They march
They torch
They beat
They kill
They win

Scary ghost stories
Nightmares
Enticing
I want more
I love them

Porcelain clown dolls
They laugh
They scream
They scare
They break
And cut me
Suffocate as I pull my world down
With my mouth, I make this sound
With this negligence, I drown
With my wire, I am bound

Fall down as I take it at one time
With my silence, I am a mime
With this shit, I play in grime
With laziness, I’ve never had a prime

So back and forth
Falling worth
So much potential
Trapped in the fatal

Look at the mass of this plight
I wish I could go to the moon
The severity would just become so light
But I guess I would too
Wasting Impressions
On you
Wasting Impressions
On you
Wasting Impressions
On you
Wasting Impressions
On you

From free market to fascist
I look in between
I can’t see anything
Suitable for me
I’m not too worried
One of these keys
That I sing flat of
Will one day be me

I’m choking as I let myself lose
Meaningless I rarely choose
Inspiration/motivation are always confused
Time and potential, I love to abuse
