Blessed are the anxious for their the ones who know,
that life is all about waiting for the safety of alone.
I know you hear them talking in hushed tones and in sighs,
all about the way that you’re a failure in their eyes.
I know it’s hard to accept it, but people hardly care,
about what you have internalised or what you really fear.
Blessed are the anxious for their the ones who know,
that pain can be eternal and you should never show.

Cut cut cut the sickness out and throw it in the ocean,
until the glass glass glass break break breaks.
Stick your hand into the gaping hole,
until the po po po come vroom vroom vroom and bang bang bang.
It’s to find a light that is approximately same thickness as your skin.
I know the pain can only see the difference in your hands,
from the warts and the cuts and the bruises and the,
CUT CUT CUT CUT CUT CUT.
You’ve seen the blood that leaks from,
your brothers and your sisters and your mothers.
You’ve seen the blood that leaks from,
CUT CUT CUT CUT CUT CUT.
How does one even begin to measure the pain pain pain?
Me don’t want to feel the pain lol.

Why would you take the job in the first place,
if you had no intention of sticking around?
His fragile ego is a ticking bomb.
This fallacy is our authority,
and interference is not what we need,
or his ideas from between those cocked eyes.
If this carries on the whole thing will be gone,
lost in a cloud of fucking smoke,
and pink buns for pink boys.

Fenestra let me down again,
so violence is the only thing that can stimulate me,
and distract me from coping.
Can you cope?
Can you Sofia Coppola?
Standing above the ground he realised why,
the weight of the concrete had liquified that guy.
Provocation leads to friction,
Friction leads to reaction,
Reaction leads to vengeance,
Vengeance leads to action,
Action leads to mess,
Mess leads to regret,
Regret leads to sorrow,
Sorrow leads to coping.

The smell of gas leaks into the hallway,
Replacing the smell of absent children,
and absent grandchildren who don’t talk to him anymore.
Grandad hasn’t been the same since granny died,
and building model airplanes doesn’t fill his time,
and his children don’t invite him to christmas dinner,
so grandad is sticking his head IN THE OVEN!
So grandad died and the gas kept leaking,
and a spark from a faulty plug,
made the house explode,
and it killed all the children in the park next to the house.
Oh I wish it could be christmas everyday,
blah blah blah blah blah.
No roast turkey, just roast grandad.

I tried to let go of the flag pole.
I tried to stick it in the ground.
I tried to stop terrorising my meat.
I tried to stop over-whisking the eggs.

I want to assess the risk to my own personal health.
And if he launches himself down at this angle,
he is sure to break both his legs.
They have no clue guerrilla martian.
What if I told you, to be employed is to be android?
And does it really matter is a young fella tops himself?
What if I told you, that he has you wrapped around his pinky finger?
It goes on and on and on.
I want to assess the risk to my wrong shape NO!
No, not again.
And if he carries on with this shite,
he is sure to get his head kicked in.
It’s ok to leave the song just like this.
