mmm. lyrics.

if you know me, you know i live for other people's words. specifically, song lyrics. poetry is still alive, i tell you! i am officially stealing from amanda, and posting some.

apparently we all should go listen to eyedea.

just let me breathe
while I wear a game face
in 10 years don't check for me
i'll be in the same place
this planet is just an overpopulated mental hospital
each zombie walks around, constitutes another obstacle
so here it is, I'm finally coming out my shell

all 19 years of my life have been in conflict with myself

i'm insecure by every facet of my existence
from my addictions, to the conditions I choose to live in
who you kidding? i suffer from excess anxiety
a product of pollution in American society
stare into my eyes and see the hell that burns inside my mind
and I no longer have an ego I can hide behind
but I've been trying disregarding my insanity
every form of hurt isolates me from humanity
but it's provoked against being force fed
so fuck education for a decade and 3 years
of headaches from my peers
cuz now I realize I could have learned more on my own
they taught me how to know everything except my soul
which is everything I need to grow
everything that keeps me whole

[sigh.]
