"Little Star"
(dedicated to you)
there you are
my little star
blinking on and on
euphoric phenomenon
releasing me
from this fantasy
that i can't believe in
my demons are unwelcome
here this season
so tune in to the music
my friend, we're more than human
don't fret, it's just illusion
don't get caught up in confusion
no one knows
no, no one knows
even if they say they do
they're probably trying
to sell something to you
yeah, no one knows
seaside skyline
coming at you live
i fixate on the light
i softly shut my eyes
i see it from within
watch it fade to nothin'
unattached to all sensation
sight and sound
i'm nowhere bound
but what do i know
i know no one knows
even if you think you do
it might be just your mind
controlling you
yeah, no one knows
no, no one knows
no, no one knows no's nose
head shoulders
knees and toes.
"He He He"
(dedicated to @fakefan333)
passive agression
isn't a fair reaction
to implicit biases
my apologies
i have a tendency to
write people off if they
unwittingly mislabel me
idiosyncrasystematically
he he he
he is not me
you’ve got the wrong guy
no, he is not i
god in disguise
only fulfilling a role
until the body dies
no need for me to be an asshole
i am not defined
by these imaginary boundaries
just dissatisfied
with this arbitrary binary machi-
he he he, no
she is not me
you’ve got the wrong guy
no, she is not i
i am, i am, i am
i am, and that’s it
i am, i am, and this is
as is as it gets.
"No Sense"
(dedicated to those i've let down)
it’s exhausting
simply existing
with people unable to be
on the off-beat
is where i find my peace
in between breath
living alongside death
work in progress
no sense in rushing
it’s a process
oh, oh
legerdemain
no, no
one-word refrain
maltodextrin
oil of turpentine
got defensive over
somethin’ never mine
a phonetic checklist
a shallow alibi
bland and ambiguous
disguised in/sincere design
got nothing to say and
so many ways to say it
been trying to see
the commonality
between you and me
but all i could find with
these widened eyes
is i’m gonna die
oh, oh
legerdemain
no, no
one-word refrain
