There’s a tension across the floor Can’t believe that I’m back here stressing It’s Stretching and pulling It’s stabbing it’s dulling Unrelenting and it’s back for more Breathe out and lift up and hold and let go Smooth and controlled and always go slow Meh fuck your linear time It’s all cycles and will always come back to you There’s a tension across the floor Once again I’m back here stressing pelvic relations and painful frustrations Unrelenting and it’s back for more There’s a tension across the floor Should have known I’d be back here stressing One inflammation has toppled my station Unrelenting and it’s back for more

I got a bug brain, I think Some kind of Robert Heinlein cancer There's eggs or something in there I can feel the wormy bastards There's a heightened sense of calmness as they growth into disaster I screamed into the dark But got back only laughter I GOT BUGS! I GOT BUGS! I GOT BUGS! I GOT BUGS! BUGS! I closed my eyes and mouth and ears to suffocate them all I tried to smoke em out with weed Get em to drown in alcohol But the burning never stopped Even Ambien's not working I'm spitting out their bodies I can feel their larva squirming I tried Ritalin and zoloft, Xanax and Wellbutrin Benzos, beta-blockers, But all of it was useless They said I had depression Or perimenopause But deep inside I knew it was all because the bugs. I GOT BUGS! I GOT BUGS! I GOT BUGS! I GOT BUGS! BUGS! I feel it. Can you feel it? Can you feel that? I feel it. I screamed and ripped my clothes off Cuz I knew the end was near The bugs were in control now I could see the future clear I jittered with excitement When I heard nobody listen Instead they thought that it could be Undiagnosed autism I GOT BUGS! I GOT BUGS! I GOT BUGS! BUGS! I GOT BUGS!

nobody’s gonna seal my fate but you and the god of wonder nobody’s gonna steal my face but you and the pangs of thunder and while you build me up it comes off so unfair because my buttercup your clinging unaware to a room where no one sleeps to a man inside who creeps to a sample size fits all to no one nothing at all

nobody wants to go, they think they are going to crash...
