1.
Unknowing forever And never at rest The burden of gravity on our shoulders All of us Slowly circling the drain No Nothing escapes The gravitational pull Everything that was will be undone Matter and mind Spaghettified And scattered all over White on white Our attempt At transcendence A coating of white on a canvas Gaze into this void A place of soothing darkness Entranced godlike Nose diving all the way down to the singularity As we melt into the background White on white

I dream a little dream A dream of misery Every single rotten day I wallow in decay Neck deep into the sludge Can hardly feel a thing Ill-equipped for life Living on repeat Too scared to kill Too lame to live Master of bad luck With a taste for the grotesque I scorn my entire life Better not fuck with happiness I don’t fuck with happiness One gets used to everything Even the smell of shit You can’t trust What you don’t know Better stick with What you’ve got 'Cause it can only get worse It can only get worse It only gets worse I dream a little dream A dream of misery Forever asleep Hoping not Not to wake Up again No

Voices Screaming in my head All my life Made to crawl on my knees Memories crippling me Born of degradation Only one way this could end Never meant to know a little love A life of self-loathing on his own The only friend he thought he had Wearing a grin behind his back Endlessly in pain Silently waiting For the day He’ll draw some blood In my mind I hear them say: “He was a quiet one” I am just another one of those Bizarre fuck-ups nature throws about To be pointed at and ridiculed A horrendous piece of news Couldn't you just let me be It was bound to end this way Make it stop Only one way to One way to make it stop Now it’s for good The cries of my tormentors Like songs they rise above The noises in my head I’m getting back at you Before my eyes the bloody hands The voices silent now
