I Am Going To Relax

I think when I saw that I could change
I realized it was just a game
But how can I let it go like that
I just want to stop and lay back
Could I rest here awhile
And leave my world there outside
The depth of this fear knows no bounds
And I’m helpless in its chains

Float Away

If I thought that the world was beautiful
will I want to know it more?
If I thought the world possessed something magical
would I finally see some beauty in hope?
It came, it went
I saw it float away
and I heard my soul say
I wait for you all day

I wanted to be famous
but not try too hard, tryna be lowkey
wanted to create a masterpiece
but I'm too lazy
so I thought maybe...
I'll open my pirated software
choose some crunchy snares,
and make a beat
bullshit some random chords,
and copy and paste, and hope it's complete
wrote out a descent bassline
tryna sound 80s oh yeah ... "more beef"
slap some reverb on everything
want it to sound dreamy, and a lil sleepy...
chorus, compress
like I know what I'm doing
bit reduction, now it's vintage and scratchey
wannabe "vaporwave", that's me
Next, find a shitty camera
your old ass laptop should be perfect
ideally you're a pretty girl
but if not, that's fine - just try to pretend
And now you're done, and
you can proudly show off what you've made
some basic elevator music
and if you're lucky - celebrate

Red Pen

I lay it all down for me to see, and it’s quite frustrating
How much is wrong, how little is right
When it’s written out to A to Z, it’s all the more upsetting
Sets camp in my mind, (puts out my lights)
I blink and the moment’s past, now a memory
Add to my list, a tiresome read
I choose my weapon wisely
A red pen to mend
All I regret
I stop, take the battery
out of my clock
Its hands stop momentarily
I sigh in relief
but relief only lasts
so long as I am blind
The past seems obscene, but I still let it play again
It comes with a warning, but I ignore it yet another time, once again I
. . .
I do prefer when things don’t make sense, when chaos fails the machine in my head, when my motherboard starts to short circuit so take me there
where I blink and see the moment become a memory
I add it to my list and it’s growing endlessly
I take my pen and start to correct the faulty lines
But sadly my red marks won’t make it back in time

I think she’s all too familiar (with guessing)
Don’t know where she wants to go (go nowhere)
She spends her days pretending (just faking)
Already lost on the road (go nowhere)
If it were me, I’d lose it all, just drop it
Divine ignorance
If it were me, I’d fail them all - disappointment
Is the new best friend
To live, to live free
Go nowhere, with guessing
With guessing, go nowhere
