[ENGAGE ROUND BOY]

lyrics

the only way we meet is through the shoes on my feet
and everything is murky, i cant feel complete
no, i dont wanna compete (no way)
this solitude has left me feeling heartfelt defeat
my momma says there's more to life but I can't change the deceased
i hold my body up as though it's my own casket
goin through the motions like i aint no basket
case you cant recall, ive taken one too many falls
i shoulda stayed down
if dying meant youd live again id pop a pill and skip town

im off now (out)

regaining all this space, ive been delivered from grace
and no, i cant forget, i got these scars on my face
trapped inside my head im just trynna find my maya
i cant tell if im insane or just a little psycho
cant relate to bates, but ill be damned if i aint hollow
guess that i was trippin then but i cant go and blame the blotter
i picked up foster wallace realize that this is water
mindfulness is easy when im mindful to support her
i conceal my fragility, depressive disorders

this my last quarter, imma toss it in the ether
yo, i tried to make a wish, but wishes didnt want me either
callous and exhausted
i could use a breather
the only things ive left of them are memories and sneakers
dodging all the tweakers
and the creatures
feel 'em crawlin,
feel 'em fuckin' clawin at my feet like fuckin reapers
i cant follow no procedure, i aint bout to follow leaders
