keep my body warm
that's all i care about
i leave my coat on when i'm inside,
avoid going out
i wrap myself in blankets,
always keep a pillow by my head
they say to keep your spirit full
and mind and body active
but my body feels too heavy
my thoughts all get too massive
i trip up on the carpet
every time that i get out of bed
they say to keep your friends close
but i'm really not that strong
when people say they love me
i just think of why they're wrong
connections that i build up
always will decay
just as i do
so i'm left with sliding down
cause i've lost track of what matters
the roads i put up guardrails
all get torn up after
so stay in isolation
and smoke til i'm concussed
it's what i need to do
cause your world's just what you're use to
and i don't want things to change
so all this efforts wasted
on being alive in a "better" way
i'll shave off different pieces
to fill in where there's holes
so no matter where i end up
something's missing
