I'm dreaming that my teeth are chipping
once again the feeling's different
want a faker smile but my feet are slipping
crocodile's listen
all the while this was just a prison
chipper shit's too much a bitch
and all the vicious circles liquify
like the lipids
I exist on a different plane of quiet bliss
the blisters pain me, paint me as lies and lips
I know I'm changing
but I try to hide it
never too drastic
We are always divided
I'm always stuck in the middle
just a rough image of an island
I watch the sunrise as it rises
watch the sunrise as it rises
rises rises rises rises
I watch the sunrise as it rises
rises rises rises rises
I watch the sunrise as it rises
watch the sunrise as it rises
I'm living a life that's all the rage
but it's like, living in a cage with the key
but no light to see the lock
and stopping before you beat the block
against your head
beat the clock by taking out the batteries
it's sad to leave what's never been
we believe that this life will never end
because there's always more time
for reaching around that next bend
but it's below waist that the all the water sits
gaining weight as we hold out for the apocalypse
And so
I lift my eyelids when the sun picks my team
to fight the night shift, I ride with the chariot
cherry-picked by I don't care that it's a scary flick
I flare the bits of ash toward their faces, kicking ass
and making names for ourselves, but the flakes hit
the bigger picture, making waves in the type
of blog-based scripture, like nothing you could wish for
this never goes right
I watch the sunrise as it rises
watch the sunrise as it rises
rises rises rises rises
I watch the sunrise as it rises
rises rises rises rises
