love handles 04:01
i have not, I have not been looking after myself, i am lost in a sea of amber hue, without a paddle, without a paddle, i am frantically thrashing my way to any shore, but without guidance, without guidance, i guess i don't really know where I'm going at all, i'm not feeling well, i'm not feeling well; that's not really anything new. and i can't justify, i can't justify, the weight i'm carrying around these days, and yes i realise, yes i realise, that complaining about it won't change a goddamn thing, and all the world is mad, all the world is mad, i guess i fall into that particular category. one more word from me, even if you're not really my problem anymore. you will never really know me, 'cos even i don't know the real me and everything is wearing thin, and the clothes I still wear they just don't fit. and everything is wearing thin, and the clothes you bought for me, they still don't fit.

and this flush of youth has left me, still arrogant but aware, as a man i am second best, and as a lover hard to please. i am just a bottom feeder, i spit black into the brine, i hide away from light and science, and i drag divers into the deep. i consist on meat and misery, i cause and lap it up, my ambition is capped by laziness, and i'm critically missing a heart. i guide with a golden light, but only to deeper seas, there i wait for the end of days, in the safety of this shell. and i'll be fine on my own, still arrogant, but confused, i'll be fine on my own, i'll rest at the bottom of the deep.
