The Lie

The Lie

The lie feels so good while you’re lying it 

You’ve not nothing for sale, but I’m buying it 

The smoke blows a veil 

Over my eyes so I fail to define it….  

Over the years 

It’s become more and more clear 

That standing next to you  

I disappear 

Just remember that I’ll still be here 

When the curtain goes down 

If I don’t believe in what I can’t see… 

Then how do I believe you love me?

The minute you’re born 

You sign a contract to die 

The minute you speak 

You sign a contract to lie 

The minute you love 

You sign a contract to cry 

The Untreated Depressionista 

Feels so bad but looks so good 

The Untreated Depressionista 

Does everything that you think she should

Tragically Tortured Hippie Chick – Makin’ it hip to be sick 

Self medication 

Zen meditation 

On a journey to find myself, ha 

Need a vacation 

Hyperventilation  

Don’t you worry about my mental health 

Stop go 

Fast slow 

Up down 

Spin around 

Hurray up and fuckin’ wait 

I think I’m gonna suffocate

I'm super hard to program and I'm not very user friendly. I'm basically the Apple iHuman of people.

Everything or Nothing at All

Dear Everything or Nothing at all 

I hope it’s not 

Too late for my call 

Dear Everything or Nothing at all 

Just want you to know I’m feeling so small 

Dear Everything or Nothing at all 

I’m doing my best 

But keep hitting the wall 

Dear Everything or Nothing at all 

I know that something will catch me when I fall 

You know I get so excited 

Then I’m so let down 

It’s the roller coaster 

That keeps my head in the clouds 

And my feet on the ground 

Dear Everything or Nothing at all 

I hope that I’m not 

Standing too tall 

Dear Everything or Nothing at all 

Life’s never boring 

I’m having a ball
