Degenerate

 I’ll put on the nice dress

Go to the nice party

But always escape

You’ll find me in an alley with my drink getting warm

Making a new friend

Living an old dream

Degens, dissidents, deserters

That’s where I go

That’s where I want to be

Fuck This Day (RBG)

 Fuck this day

Things don’t work the way I understand they should 

I stomp my feet at atrocities that are nothing while

Heroes die as we watch a tiny glass screen

Evil prevails and prevails

And we can’t believe it

This is not the world we know, or expect or were promised 

Good does not triumph

Greed and lasciviousness carry the day

And the populace is stupid

And white girl that I am

I’m just pissed that my new couch will take nine weeks to get here while

Rome

Fucking

Crumbles

(down is up)

I tried

 I need you to know these words

The love I feel

The regret I ignore

The dreams that happen because I can’t stop them

You’ll never understand 

You’ll blame me and villianize me

Even the devil has a reason

We’re all just trying to get by

And everyone has a reason

Like it or not

You’re not good either 

And I tried

Birthday

The last day I saw you it was my birthday

Now it is yours

I looked across

I said god you are beautiful 

Knowing it was the last

Now you’re hanging there in a cloud

Just above 

Out of reach

I can see you

You can’t see me

You can’t hear me

You don’t know that I’m here
