You were a rock to me

On a rocket ship

To nowhere, where you float like me

We had our ups and downs

Can’t tell up from down

I’m too wild

When you ain’t by me

Did you or I leave?

My recollection hazy

Memory clouded because we kept it wavy

Day trippin, vacations from ourselves

Now I do it by myself, and I’m swell (fuckin swell)

Wyn told me before DRUGS dropped to tell ‘em who I am

I’m a sad man, melancholy Dan, speak of plans

Self-aggrandized grand-standing brand, front a band

But when I step off stages or podiums, can’t stand

Canned responses and fake smiles with somber eyes

I punched a card til the day that I craved to fuckin die

Overdramatic, I’ll wear the shoe but it ain’t a lie

If it fits my size, I live to try on a different vice

This is nice, we don’t do it anymore

Conversations without pressing record

I forget how depression’s a force

‘til I find myself by myself, miss your support

You were a rock to me

On a rocket ship

To nowhere, where you float like me

We had our ups and downs

Can’t tell up from down

I’m too wild

When you ain’t by me

Did you or I leave?

I’m the short side of the wishbone

I piss prose to fix those inconsolable wrist holes that drip gold

My kiss cold

I twist cones to blitz O’s, thick smoke I extoll for shit shows

Time’s up - 27’s upon me

Prophesized end to the ennui

Wave length is fin if the conch sea

Word bonded, been to the mommy

It’s my own fault, reliance is weakness

Gettin headaches from the way that my teeth grit

Every vice and high, trip - I need this

The hole inside my floor is ever-growing

Some are evergreen, I am never going

To escape my own winter, scrap me for tinder

I am tired of the inner dialogue

I could either die alone or die a log

...wood for fire turned to ember
