everybody's doing something
I'm at home
I'm doing nothing
I get self conscious
with how my times spent
must be productive
every second
I sit inside for one day
I start to lose my brain
I wonder who I'd be if
I never felt this way
I do the opposite when
I'm trying to relax
get tense and nervous
I wish I could just kick it back.
cousin Chris is
a data analyst
he's gonna help me
start making sense of this
print the t-shirt
with the catch phrase
quit your day job
you can work no stop
I sit inside for one day
I start to lose my brain
I wonder who I'd be if
I never felt this way
I do the opposite when
I'm trying to relax
get tense and nervous
I wish I could just kick it back.
I bite my cheeks all morning
until they start to bleed
I wonder if this is what
they call anxiety
or maybe I'm depressed
or maybe it's a.d.d.
or maybe it's just nothing
there's nothing wrong with me.

slice of life

in the kitchen I feel normal
it just feels like
I'm in control
try to stick to
some sort of routine
even if that's
just one thing
I drink espresso
every morning
it makes the day feel
WAY LESS BORING
I JUST WANT MYYYYYY
slice of life
eating chicken and rice
for the hundredth time
without losing my mind
there's joy in repetition
why is it so hard to find
ice breakers just aren't as fun
when you feel threatened
by a gun
but my names John
I like pizza
I hate board games
except backgammon
(directions for making rice a roni)
I just want my slice of life
eating chicken
eating rice
searching for my peace of mind
shouldn't be this hard to find
I don't care if I've done it a thousand times
if something makes me happy
I'm gonna do it till the day I die.

painted hands and a face in the sky
then suddenly the wind kidnapped me
I began to fly in an infinite sky
I think such a dream
will never return
flying oh
singing oh
in the blue
painted blue
happy to be up here
I flew
towards the sun
the whole world disappeared slowly
far away
down there
they played a sad song for me
I think such a dream
will never return
flying oh
singing oh
in the blue
painted blue
happy to be up here
happy to be up here
happy to be up here
take it away Harrison
Sure thing Johnny

mirror men are everywhere
look at that one standing there
maybe you don't understand
maybe you, you just don't care
one day all of jersey will be
apartments and quick checks
dig your grave
lie in it
every cause has an effect
I don't think I like it here
but I don't like it anywhere
I want a dirty pizzeria
a dim lit bar
don't wanna walk two blocks
after I park my car
I passed a vacant lot
now it's a coffee shop
two weeks later it's a tapas spot
it's a souless scene fueled by franchisees
destroying towns till we live like sardines
give me the quirk
give me the charm
go somewhere else
buy the farm
crossing over the bridge
I used to take when we were kids
graffiti tags are finally gone
I guess the world is moving on
it spins
so fast
nothing is meant to last
I don't think I like it here
but I don't like it anywhere
