Dead Horse

i fantasize about driving to douglas county a quiet place where i can douse myself in gasoline i am openly contributing to the opioid crisis for selling oxy that i get for my bad neck / hey you get fucked you lose you suck who’s next? you’re up show me what you’ve got / and i wait patiently for my name to be called / i wish that i could create my own set of physics to hurl this earth into the suns of distant solar systems i am openly contributing to the opioid crisis but make no money cause i’m too busy abusing it / i can’t shake off this feeling of something inside me clawing out / just maybe it’s time to quit when you wake up next to the sink just maybe it’s time to quit when i wake up next to you

breathe in patience sit hold it and release pause / do you feel it? when the air sits still and your heart slows to a stop as the heat swallows you / facing that big empty where i dream of you / just pacing in cadence / and nothing will save me from the dust / i’m facing that big empty where i dream of you where i dream of you / watch your back take what you want time and time again the dust seeps through my lungs and sweats out my skin

i guess it’s true what they’ve been saying bout you look what they took what the blue light did to you / can’t seem to get an answer on why i’m stuck here baked in cancer wading through my filth i thought you knew i’m famished and my brain feels damaged and my eyes are dry like the mojave desert / and to suffer is to live without relief to have everything in life but peace

i have seen a light just past the hillside machinery so bright piercing through moonlight / what has one beseen to speak such blasphemy i can see a light it invades my dreams at night floating through the sky hues of unknown sight / am i alone in these glories i have seen? the glow of these unholy machines? / i have seen a light it lurks at night and i start to feel it’s pull i’ve seen a light it shines so bright burning holes in my eyes was i’ve seen a light / to see colors never once witnessed by man to see life extend it’s other hand

take my insides, tear them out, crawl inside me, carve your route / i feel fine, just waiting here to die i’m all right, just one more day alive / life’s less peachy, underwater. with no air / sleep, endless sleep i hear it calling me, i hear it taunting me (i feel it take me with i think i’ll rest my head and) sleep

why does it ache all the damn time? watching the minutes scrape by cashing out pennies and dimes waiting for someone to call stuck like a pig / i am not well stuck in a sea of pastel i am primary cell one use, one great swell / i can’t fake it, i cannot take it this fake wallow, the constant crawl / when i look past the ledge i think how easy it could be i’ve got skeletons in my closet and they’re fucking scared of me / unrechargeable / (i am not well) i am primary cell i need help (stuck like a pig stuck in a sea soon to be so free) i am (stuck like a pig) primary cell (stuck in the sea) one use (soon to be free) quell.

pause readings show nothing out of the ordinary until i shift my gaze to the supply room doors / insufficient hydrogen fuel / the alarm blares as i stumble upon this girl not much older than 18 years old on the homeworld / insufficient hydrogen fuel / so i lead her to the airlock to impose frontier law / “i’m sorry. i’m so sorry, but you must understand...” / we will both die it's cold hard math

once again the soil has produced no yield / the dust is permeating, black mud begins to clog my lungs whatever the sun leaves you, locusts will take / no such thing as fertile land round these parts / black clouds they seem to tumble over the stretch of these great plains watching the land discipline us for man's ignorance / dust is factored in / crops have failed livestock’s dead think i’m next

hit that sinking feeling to course my veins with liquid death shame reserving nothing thinking it’s funny to off myself / i’ve let myself down i’ve seem to fallen down back to square one / defensive systems seem less efficient with no one there left to protect and you sit and you float away from all this / bliss is silence, quiet and dead / humans seem to destroy all things once seen to be cherished by me

guess what i’m not having no fun trekking through the same old mud i think that i’ve been hearing voices again / it’s just one small thing, compiling into something obscene feels like my life fucking sucks lately / guess what i’m not having no fun trekking through the same old mud i think that i’ve been hearing voices again / it’s just one more thing, compiling into something obscene feels like my life fucking sucks lately / i feel the push and the pull, like waves against the shore the levee cannot hold this i watch the structure break, as water dissipates and i feel at home / wake up, i feel the push and the pull, like waves against the shore the levee cannot hold this shake off, i watch the structure break, as water dissipates to feel nothing at all / it’s just one small thing, building into something obscene feels like my life fucking sucks lately / it’s just one more thing one more fucking god damn thing and the phone rings one more thing one more fucking god damn thing one more thing

i smell blood that metallic taste of something never loved and i feel it’s touch / wait for the pressure to arise let it normalize til tension begins to suffocates this room of light dragging my weight up this hill to say i should leave / i smell blood that metallic taste of something never loved and i feel it’s touch the swift release of pain sent from above / welp big sell cause truth is that i never loved you
