Throw Your Phone in the River

I feel trapped in my inability to get you through this I can't let this fall apart And it hurts too much to do nothing Can't eat, can't sleep Consciousness is destroying me My eyes are heavy, with no relief Just rusted anchors of frozen meat Circling a locked groove drain Failing to drown in its filth Just burn it all away Remove me, I'm scared Scarred I feel trapped in my inability to get you through this I can't let this fall apart And it hurts too much to do nothing Can't eat, can't sleep Consciousness is destroying me My eyes are heavy, with no relief Just rusted anchors of frozen meat

I'm unravelling so much faster than I used to Like distant blanketed lightning for the impending storm With an unnatural tenure This pure cold wave Pulsating in its dominance And eclipsing all focus You felt it too Like the beating wings of the thrush You felt it too Then brings the storm Without release, without relief Then brings the storm A ruthless simplicity of which we've become detached To usher in our greatest fall Then brings the storm Without relеase, without relief Thеn brings the storm To usher in our greatest fall Then brings the storm Without release, without relief Then brings the storm To usher in our greatest fall Forgotten, erased Unresponsive, replaced, abandoned Forgotten, erased Unresponsive, replaced, abandoned Forgotten, erased Unresponsive, replaced, abandoned Forgotten, erased Unresponsive, replaced, abandoned Forgotten, erased Unresponsive, replaced, abandoned Forgotten, erased Unresponsive, replaced, abandoned

I don't want to become that Just a lesser version of what you once were All the while, it feels so painfully arbitrary I’ve got nothing worthwhile to say And you've got no reason to listen Whatever gets you talking more We're trying to keep you engaged with the platform Whatever gets you talking more We’re trying to keep you engaged with the platform But this is my story, so I'll narrate myself as whatever I want to Hero, victim, victim, hero I'm just trying to keep myself from drowning No valuable lesson lеarned, only loss Drag me deeper, strip away еverything I hold All of your failures condensed, removed, controlled Whatever gets you talking more We're trying to keep you engaged with the platform Whatever gets you talking more We're trying to keep you engaged with the platform All grow frail and die No power lasts Success is fleeting Existence, temporary

What would you know about greatness? The longer you talk, the weaker you sound This is not about you It was a mistake to ask me for help It was a mistake to ask me for help I interfere with everything For no reason at all This is not about you This is not about you I'd likе to congratulate you I'd like to congratulate you For buying into thе exact same narrative as everyone else I'd like to congratulate you I'd like to congratulate you For buying into the exact same narrative as everyone else This untasteful place This untasteful place This untasteful place Something is broken, something is fucked This untasteful place This untasteful place This untasteful place Something is broken, something is fucked Is fucked Is fucked Is fucked Fucked This was a mistake This was a mistake This was a mistake Something is broken, something is fucked This was a mistake This was a mistake This was a mistake Something is broken, something is fucked
