Unattainable unforgettable

Harvesting in my mind

Like and idea, like a song

You are a ballad


I am on repeat, a skipping record

That's on repeat, a skipping record

That's on the edge, wobbling

About to topple over

Cracking my skull

As I crack my knuckles

Which mimic the music

Snap. a pattern, a pitch

A sneak peak

Of the next album

I'll be listening to


Break it down

Scratch the record, stop

Then start, old school

This is not a new problem

This is just new hardware

It's the same songs again

On a different format

A CD,with headphones.

They scratch at my ear

To get in

I'm crawling out the other one

I'm finished with this song

It starts playing again


Can't write new music

Notes are foreign

Lyrics scattered and fleeting

Stuck with these same sounds

Other's truths

Other's pain

Hit play to find out

How to ruin your life next.
