I got bad news the moment I woke up today, took one last look at you and threw my phone away. Weeks go by and you don't hear a word from me. When will I discover electricity? Robot love song, programmed to feel this way. Synthetic satisfaction feels good all the same. It's all my fault, I watched you fade away. The only thing that's certain in this life is change. Now that I'm old everything just hurts. Now that you're gone I just want it to get worse. So get me off of my feet. I think I'm learning to bleed but there's no way to calculate what's inside of me. Wake me up when I sleep. I am falling in dreams. Keep me up with a story, put me down with morphine. Now that I'm old everything just hurts. Now that you're gone I just want it to get worse. Fuck me up when I'm clean I'm yearning to scream. Fuck being young. Fuck you're fun. I'll pull the plug. I am done. Friends are dangerous but they contain us like the sky contains the night contains the stars contains the moon. If the universe contains us, do we contain it too? If i could contain myself, there'd be no room for you.
