Just Before the Storm

i’m a junkie honestly
and i’m married to the high
of blowing up and blacking out
each and every night
and i would stop if i could
but nothing’s ever ached 
as much as that

my love, at the vending machine
in the hall in between classes
whisper your dreams in my ear
and buy me a pepsi, will you please

of course, you say
in that sweet patient voice
that’s when i decided
that’s when i knew
i’d ache only for you

home room teachers and school yard dreams
gym class heroes picking teams
teen romance and high school dances
stomach pumps and best laid plans in

hotel rooms small town dreams
cheering for a losing team
empty bottles, prescriptions run
i’ll be your opioid baby

i’ll be your opioid baby
i’d ache only for you

ache

I'm realizing it's kind of hard for me to turn happiness into a song. I'm good at making moody, dissonant stuff. I think this one turned out pretty up beat, even though it is still kind of discordant (:

you can search your whole life
and still not find what you’re after
you can search your whole life
and you still won’t find what you’re after

Realizing you could really do damage to the people you love is terrifying. All super-villains were once people like us. It's a lot to process.

This Could Be  y o u .

It is rare to be disciplined and that is sometimes isolating for me, but I don't care. At least not now. It makes me free.

Is That All There Is?

The issue was not Icarus flying too close to the sun; the issue was that his wings were made of wax. However, he had nothing else to make them with.
