dedicated to my heroes on the other side; may they each live a thousand lives

prisoner in my skull
locked beneath my head

arms are plagued with worms
crawl with existential dread

scraps of my old reading
writhe with pen in hand

circumvent arrivals
loner in a solo band

trapped in blackened rubble
act like a blade runner

still can't know myself
i'll forever wonder

is that truest memory
or another broken summer

choke myself with chains
deep in hopelessness' gutter

my ghosts are thrashing, screaming
saying "let my body out"

self-sequestered meaning
eardrums ringing when i shout

twinkle in my eyes
clouded over, full of gout

crystalize my eyelids
cut my hands and tear me out

i hug my knees closely
clasp my hands to pray
i still didn't forget
you're just a dial tone away

i know you'll always need me
i need to take my time
i'd rather let it ring
but still love you on the line

tap shoes on
i'm dancing like a jester

see it in the mirror
hits stallone sylvester

i want to be cold
i need it to snow

then you'd hold me close
never let you go

my fits all imported
dhl illegal

poetry recorded
open mic my desert eagle

let me cry until we laugh
another fucking breakdown

i want another broken wrist
crushes on the playground

my ghosts are thrashing, screaming
saying "let my body out"

self-sequestered meaning
eardrums ringing when i shout

twinkle in my eyes
clouded over, full of gout

crystalize my eyelids
cut my hands and tear me out

fuck being another rock star
i'm a pop punk

acting shitty backstage
new jeans chopped up

cobain in the long run
pop off with the shotgun

fuck it made my own sub
beats make the trunk jump

drums make a lung pop
tylenol for my skull

hammer like a wasp stung
cock that shit, spiral

automatic rifle
sifting through the silo

always been sober but
can't come off this high low

still live in house of leaves
they're vacant and they're twisted

running down the halls
my feet are broken, blistered

fall to my knees
wrists return to splinters

i'm breathing in a labyrinth
the halls of onyx glitter

migraine songs
worlds march on

stepping to the drums
pounding in my head like bombs

this club shit's too crazy
rather stay inside

could confront my demons
it's more comfortable to hide

maybe it's just posturing
or i've really changed

i don't know anymore
i'm still stuck up in my ways

calcify the meaning
i'd still put it in cardboard box

crucify your teachers
they're still holding off from passing on

ohhhhh ohhhhhh
ohhhhhhh waaaohhhh
ohhhhhh waaooohhhh
ohhhhhh waaaaaohhhhhhh

TRAPPED INSIDE

OUTSIDER ART
produced, written, performed, recorded & mixed by glass eater
mastered by enyang urbiks

dedicated to my heroes on the other side; may they each live a thousand lives

dropped pianos
ravedeath
head full of hatred

one step
two step
i know they just want me dead

paid for it
fated
c-can't let the knife slit

pop star
dated
tat it on my ribs

cross the country
double back
GE with the wolf pack

hit the curb
skull crack
brush it off and double back

skinhead
skull tee
you're no fucking punisher

brain dead
'no please'
rick owens make you taste the earth

archangel
burial
still mix with pretty rave girls

in the pit
crowd kill
wearing fucking jade + pearls

new kids
want beats
venmo me like 5 Gs

two clips
siamese
run this shit like nikes

can't stop playing with razor blades
polish rings and ice my chains
you're an actor: play charades
venom bubbles in my veins

hide in my margiela mask
ride the track like six flags
trip and you get red flagged
passed out from the jet lag

just linked up
2 sessions
i'm a fucking trainwreck

need you back
untimely death
at least i really made it

angel portraits painted
have to make my heroes proud
when i'm gone i'll meet with them
bend my neck and bow down

no i'm not injured
burning metal, spinning gears
tires turn to splinters
where've i been all these years

mastered by enyang urbiks

dedicated to my heroes on the other side; may they each live a thousand lives

play it like i'm fated from the start
i can't get too close to you
without losing my heart

when the day comes that i depart
i hope you remember
we're all fragile works of art
(x2)

all my heroes die
they're all stars in the sky
i feel demons in my eye
every night, every time uh

hear them in my mind
out of time
no punchline

pistol at my side
eagle eyed
never confide

*verse*
focused on my fits
in the strobes
i'm ian curtis

head feels like a brick
notting hull
jimi hendrix

summertime got so sick
asked kurt c what he did
eyes wide and his head split
"found the nearest exit"

i can't let my mom die
almost took myself too
heroes aged past 25 (two-five)
i'm older than some of you

when i sleep at night
dream of the 27 club
every time we meet
say they wish they got to grow up

how can they be loved
devil's date, then not show up
found the other day
hanged himself from his soapbox

mcqueen on my screen
when he screams i get locked out
mental is a compound
up so i can't shut down

hair up on my neck pricks
i feel spirits effortless
hangmen tie their own knots
judas' tree on my thoughts

cut my hair like peep
that spring i felt his energy
terrence malick's hero
but his psyche was the enemy

i feel like a weapon
i can't let my loved ones know me
geriatrics hold me
suicide by police

had to use effects
i'm sorry
for the disconnect

made it hard to hear
all this pain
mental defect

chains feeling heavy like a gallon on my chest now
feel it bubble in my blood like i should lay to rest now

virgil got a padlock on my wrist
going nuts

god i'm in my twenties
please let me grow up

love to my family
hold it down
i'm alright now

i'll go take a walk
count my breaths
make it right now

love to my brother matt
know he'd always come through
pray i never have to
but you know i'd kill for you

play it like i'm fated from the start,
i can't get too close to you
without losing my heart

when the day comes that i depart
i hope you remember
we're all fragile works of art
(x2)

KICK IT LIKE A ROCK STAR
JUMPING ON A COP CAR
WEARING ED HARDY
CAMO LIKE ARMY

COMBAT BOOTS ON
IT'S A S-S-SHOOT-A-THON
SAY THEY WANT A WAR NOW
GASOLINE POURED OUT

night's just starting
pulled up to the party
walking with my legs gone
mental got me headstrong

floating like the phantom pain
know you made me feel this way
why'd i have to feel this way
i cant make it through the day

i can't let you get away
pull out in the getaway
ysl and fendi
pistol whip his red teeth

o-o-off it for the night
curb s-stomping out the lights
straight edge superstar
slugs all in the sports car

cocky then you bleed out
camera k-k-keyed out
boneless with your teeth out
spineless at the scene now

cops come zip your team up
murder spree was deadly
couldn't be dreamed of
by s-s-scorcese

obsessed with the violence
clockwork with my eyelids
demon in my iris
doxxing all their privates

twenties on a power trip
armor with a bat or brick
let me throw my life away
just to save my brother's neck

painting with the opps
think i made a new pollock

bootlicker hostage
ex-workaholic

caught him by the wall
fixed up another rothko

slaughter mode, darkthrone
know i keep it cutthroat

meds still can't control me
i'm on wall street like the psycho

what's your life worth?
put me on the phone with geico

know the inferno
dante never took the high road

after this i come down
something only i know

I STILL FEEL YOU BUT YOU'RE NOT THERE
I CAN STILL FEEL YOU BUT YOU'RE NOT THERE
(x6)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

AHHHHHHHHHIEEEEEEEYAAAAAAAAA

AAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIEEEEIIIIIIUHHHHH

on the other side
i might
be there with you

if you took my side
could i
be there for you

is it worth my time
if i'm
not there with you

is it worth my pride
if i
would die for you

i might disappear
just like laura palmer
i might duck the scene
without a one hit wonder

i'm on eastern time
living like i'm under
i turned 21
looking like no slumber

it's been a while
since my old songs
friends dont recognize me
it's been so long

sophie died i broke down
time to meet my idols
feeling like a lost soul
masterless disciple

dead on arrival
debut with no tidal
wave just to spite you
when you small they bite you

it's colder in the water
than it's been since i was 19
mcqueen on my lock screen
me and him share one thing

we don't fuck with nothing
working as our own team
had to make our own dreams
blocking out our own screams

he could cut the coat seams
on me while it's snowing
i still wear his old rings
frostbite so it won't sting

photoshop on my screen
focused on my timepiece
i just want to die in peace
let me live and die a king

wrists slit, e smith
other side's my wishlist
royal tenenbaums
don't fuck with family business

dropped my first record
thought i made that shit explicit
you still got it twisted
how bout a revisit

i started working out
so i could fight back
kids still on my nutsack
fists clenched yelling "hold back"

don't make me liquidate your life insurance
would rather pay out mine first
5 am on my verse

i could buy my own hearse
complex like i'm miss hearst
victim wouldn't be the first

uh

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

uh
yeah

AIIIIIIIIYEEEAHHHHHHH

what
what
what
huh

i was on blast off
but i'm on ten now
every bar myself
i don't fuck with pen pals

went to turn my swag on
ave just got the leak out
hot boy summer
kept strapped on my alyx belt

i just pulled up
in the cdg black
tried to rob my crib
bitch i still made the track

hyperpop star
now i want to paint it black
tried to keep it passive
but y'all on the attack

city's on fire
i can feel it with my eyes closed
heat from the streets
on my block you get your eyes rolled

stimulus checks
to the morgues not the projects
casket made by pyrex
my city never forgets

could i trade my life for yours
i don't need a future, no gigs or tours

would god take me for all your worth
crush my bones, mend me with the earth

with the earth
oh, oh

i would trade my life for yours
i would trade my life for you

i would trade my life for yours
i would trade my life for you

engines on blast off
i feel so gassed up
might score another goal
activate like charcoal

moving heavy cargo
like death stranding
come and get your girl bro
weight like i can’t stand it

sam porter bridges
feel like i can do this
baby on my hit list
get you on my wishlist

can’t get on my guestlist
that’s too bad vro
your girl is the baddest
she gets into every show

my whip’s moving faster
you can pay my gas sir
streams doing big time
i might need a hundred more

log into my webstore
menu screen on nightcore
traffic got it slowcore
i might need all night for

her to really feel me
drill her down like bad teeth
grind em down like new veneers
feel so wise beyond my years

tell me if you can’t hang
acid in my champagne
activis and woodgrain
spill it out like bloodstains

she just wants the cocaine
i can’t do the whole thing
powder on her nose ring
vodka down the shower drain

and i’m wearing wes lang
i’ll give it my best ay
passing when i switch lanes
feeling like cobain

silent like shinobi
i want you to hold me
she just wants to fuck around
knee socks like a goalie

fenty purse, i’m in a skirt
look on freeze like mochi
can’t show any time i feel
can’t be your emoji

lip gloss and a roley
still i feel so lonely
she looks like an angel
guess i’m feeling holy

angel please don’t go
feeling like ecco
purple got me slow mo
looking like a rothko

she looks like an
aaaaaaaaaaaaaangellllllllllllllllll

she looks like an
annnnnnnnnngeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllll

mmmmhmmmm

oh oh ohhhh

would you

be my ‘forever’ girl
let-let-let me be your world
you know that i couldn’t stop you
you know that, you know i love you

heartbeat racing getting faster
feels like watching ari aster
bending backwards for me tonight
morning after see a new light

it feels like just yesterday
i didn’t even know your name
then i found your private link
now i’ll never be the same

stay-staying up say-saying i love you
high school memories try to haunt you
hold your hands and think about then
band aids, spray tan, headbands, webkinz

looking out from behind your ray bans
jansport on right next to the cool kids
four loko shots with the hometown punk bands
late night calls just trying to make friends

sneaking out every single weekend
sweet sixteens going off the deep end
strobe lights fist fights all night don’t stop
stolen heels sold on your depop

speeding down i-95
pretty rave girl by my side
would you give it up tonight
press your lips to mine so tight

stick shift, kiss you, grip your thigh
off my face i start to drive
lamp posts blur as we fly by
with you here i feel so high

snapchat flash i’m in a trance
stay here while i hold your hand
night falls as we start to dance
hold me like you understand

let’s get away just for the night
just one drink will make it right
starting to think i see your light
3 more tabs in your sprite

feels like back in 2010
younger like i was back then
skrillex logo, chew my pen
headphones on, bass generation

just last night we had it all
blacked out in the shopping mall
we both danced on our own like robyn
up the next morning feeling like goddamn

what are we doing tonight ?

where are you babe i can barely see !!

hello? is anyone listening ???

hello .?

i know that you’d never leave me
see sparks at night when we’re dreaming
electricity through your body
with you here no one’s ever gonna stop me

hold you close underneath the streetlights
take you home even just for one night
let’s make this moment feel like bedtime
moon and stars shimmer like a nightlight

eeeya

eeeya

5th avenue spins side to side
in the uber take a ride
windows down when we’re inside
tip 25 w-we’re so high

young in love we both felt timeless
straps slipping down when you wear your white dress
baby girl oh i’m so obsessed
fingers through your hair in the club half undressed

drop the world each night to the beat
lip gloss selfie in your tweet
friday night looks like a dream
like a painting, it’s a scene

at the line friends store in times square
can’t remember how we got here
catch your pretty brown eyes with a quick stare
kicked outside, see our breath in the night air

ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhhhhhhhhhh
ohh ohh
ayeeeaaaaaahhhhhoooohhhhhoowoaaaaahhh
mmmmmmhmmmmmmmmmm
mhmmmhmmm
mmhmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
