Stubborn Ass

The Contrarian

Beacon

Maybe I could have made this even
But overnight it seems to turn out less
Consider images I’m looking
Push down further into nothing

Spend most of daylight in these boxes
If I’m lucky in one is where my body meet’s its end
In this one I hold myself hostage
Sinking further into degeneration

And that really should be good enough
Never really is good enough
For someone else it might be good enough

I watch these creatures fly in circles
Filling the meekness with a life dulled
For the golden gates that you weren’t chosen
You belong in the wrong genderation

And what happens when its not good enough
It will never be good enough
I’ll be sure to blow this out of proportion
I’ll be sure to blow it

But its hard to make it above
When being pulled down by sharp claws
I’ve fallen out of love
With all of these living objects
What have you done for me?
Just this once I wanted to be great
Just try to take it from me
Holding on might be my best mistake


Settle

Feel it caving in
But it won’t all the way
What I have to give
Is halfway encouragement
All this meandering
And middling
It's very tiring
Why don’t we end this

Can I speak freely
Cause he was so pretty
Make myself lonely
Cause she was so pretty

Put it all in here
Doesn’t matter
Just take some from over there
Mental pictures
Just tell me where it is
It was beautiful

Can’t get unsleepy
Cause she was so pretty
Black eyes they struck me
He was so pretty
Make myself ugly
Cause he was

Disinterest

They caught you in a spot
You weren’t supposed to be
You couldn’t stop
Reminds me of something
That I constructed only for myself

I didn’t hear you break
Discovering
The small infectious pain
And all your screams 
They translate to an unending defeated sigh

Didn’t even mean to pass the harm
Didn’t even mean to put you there
Didn’t mean to push you very far

Life was all you wanted
Grab what you can take off
From the next one
I think I have heard 
This fable’s ending many times before

I left you in your state
Clouding the fact that
It wasn’t too late
Wouldn’t be the first one
Your suffering I’ve chosen to ignore

Didn’t even mean to do you harm
Didn’t even mean to leave you there
Didn’t even have to go that far
Hit me so that I could just not stare

Can you sense me
Can you sense me I’m leaving now
I can’t do this

These lives are chosen
These lives are taken I don’t know how
To justify it

We all have burdens
We all have burdens they feel the same
But they look different

I haven’t noticed
I haven’t noticed until now
Never understand it

Oh look, it's one of your kind again
Our combined sighs freezes your hand
Preventing anecdotes abound
Of ennui and stolen sounds
Useless pain, nothing to me
You aren’t sorry for simply existing?
You’re proven wrong
We never even liked this song

Disgusting thing avert your gaze
My body is my own to tame
I know what crawls inside your dreams
I said don’t fucking look at me
I bet you use the term ‘deserve’
What a silly, stupid word
For you especially
Don’t think of getting off
On me

Go into the dark and stay there
Go back where you came from

We are more than yours
We measured it
Pain is worth more
We measured it
Your empathies never seen
We measured it
You can’t keep yourself clean

We measured your output 
Not sufficient
Pupils locked for what isn’t
Why bother you’ll never get it
