think I'm quitting life
I just wanna take a knife 
 
I just wanna swing a scythe 
in your direction
can't suffice 
 
waiting in the night
I just wanna make it right 
 
but I can't because
I'm blind
 
and I'm wasting so much time
so I go back to my rhymes 
 
seems to work every time 
blowing off steam
 
so I won't suffocate and 
drown in my dreams 
 
cause I'm on a bender 
I crashed his fender 
 
was easy to mend her
I wish I could send her
 
a letter but
it's for the better
that 
 
I don't
in fact 
 
I ruin everything 
my mom still has my 
ex's ring
 
in the desk
and to my friends
just let me rest 
 
i need a breath, god
is this a test?
 
it's odd that
i don't know where I am
 
somehow, I still converse
and flourish like roses
in a hearse.
