I was the duffel bag carryin guns
to the bank robbery dont get crazy son
there was a splish and a splash and a boom and a crash,
there was a bang and a crash and a pow pow smash.
I was the handgun tommy the handgun
i was the tommy gun handy the tom gun
i was the bullet bill slowly destroying
i am the fire building always rising
I am the television puttin on shows
for the kids and the teens and adulterinos
there was an ad and a scene that the ad was in too
because commercial-merica could sell a didgeridoo
i was the pom pom shake-a your pom poms
i am the joke teller show me the punch line
i am a book baking pizza elitist
i am a human and i dont give a shit
i wasnt born to become a bad drinker
i wasnt born to pay bills and die
im not alive to live a lonely life
im not alive to always wanna die
Not I

Days pass me by
and i dont really wanna die
night after night
i cannot get the feeling right
small canopy
pineapple tree
beer in my hand
smile with me
dim sidewalk lights
arrows pointing to the right
disneyland ride
take me to another sight
happy with me
hold my hand please
share with me wine
share with me cheese
broke but alright
im poor but i dont wanna fight
this mountain climb
is higher than I am tonight

i am the trees you are my sea
the water moves across a dream
the boat it swims like fish to be
to stop the bad and evil things
you are all i need to see
hold me call me love ill be
your hand in health and warmth believe me
when i say these things
our hearts they bleed in sacks of things
the goo it moves and warms our knees
our last and only shed of hope
would be too great to overthrow
you are all i need to see
hold me call me love ill be
your hand in health and warmth believe me
when i say these things
you are all i need to see
hold me call me love
I'll be.

If youve got problems and you know it too
people are gonna try to break down you and if
you hate dancing and they do too
then youll sit with them and talk til the whole nights through
and if you really wanna feel alive
theres just one thing that you have gotta do
youll stand at the end of a mercedes benz
kick it in while you can just to break some shit
and when youre down at the end of that mercedes benz
youll run away from the trouble that youre already in
so run baby run while the goin is soft
cause when you get to the end your heart will already stop
and when it finally feels like life makes some sense
youll find another trial and it will be shit
and if you really wanna feel alive
theres just one thing that you have gotta do
youll stand at the end of a mercedes benz
kick it in while you can just to break some shit
and when youre down at the end of that mercedes benz
youll run away from the trouble that youre already in
so take a little break from that strawberry cake
leave a slice for the homeless or just save the whole cake
cause in the end when you find youre already dead
the world will stop and you wont have any real life friends
and if you really wanna feel alive
theres just one thing that you have gotta do
youll stand at the end of a mercedes benz
kick it in while you can just to break some shit
and when youre down at the end of that mercedes benz
youll run away from the trouble that youre already in

I wish there were a forest here that I could walk away to
running is a fearful childs game
and i am not afraid of what might lay beyond the trees
im only scared of what might lay beyond my grave
and i dont really think about the things that I thought then
nowadays im just thinking of you
i guess that you are something that i thought about before so im a liar and a hypocrite so true
people are a person of interest
interest just distracts from sadness
ugliness is inside everybody i have met
and you are no exception you might as well be the worst person ive met
talking about myself like the center of attention
its stupid and i cant rely on me
i guess its sorta hard to put myself in others shoes because the only thing ive ever known is me
every single day i live is just another burden
and i cant help the awful smell of it
like a dead cat laying at the bottom of my heart
its no surprise that i had ever butchered it
wish that i could live life just like kendrick lamar
live life like a gold chain fucking superstar
shoot out garages like a flying car
and go real far
and go real far.
and its hard to stay awake every day
broken bones and broken heart and arms and legs
wait room talks and people sharing empathy
acid baths and lsd make mold realities become a thing
