Laughing Gas

I, I'm on my way
Aching inside until it's so late
Letter from my therapist
Had a heart attack
Do your best,
Sometimes you miss
Daydream of laughing gas
Crunch into a space
Pain in my chest, it's probably okay
Separate the thick and thin
Stretch from front to back
So awake can't hear the din
Daydream of laughing gas
I was on my way
But the brakes are wearing thin
Life comes at you fast
So I wait to get back in
Daydream of laughing gas

Filling in the Blank

Say what you want
But I think I'm done
Beating myself up now
I found the secret map,
So happy to be free
Say the magic words,
Heavier than sun
Beating yourself up now
Catch me breaking my teeth
From chewing on the key
When you're filling in the blank
It's like watching paint dry
It's like laying awake in the middle of the night
Had a good idea,
Put it into words
Left it on your desk, now
Beneath the office door,
Locked from the inside
I'm having fun
So leave me alone
All in the same breath now
I guess that we made plans
But I think I should've lied
When you're filling in the blank
It's like watching paint dry
It's like laying awake in the middle of the night

Wanna Be Walkin

I wanna be walkin
Without stepping on you
Familiar substance sticking to my shoe
You say that you mean it, that it's all the same to you
I'm just gonna pretend
Until it feels real
Until it feels true
Easy to remember
When you have a different brain
Pretty sure I let up,
But it's a guessing game
Smothered in answers, but they all appear the same
I'm just gonna pretend
Until it feels real
Until I'm insane
Softly approaching feet
Hovering over me
Said you could not believe
Until you made the change
I only said all that
Part of my ugly past
But I'm trying to undo all the things that make me me
I just wanna be walkin
Without stepping on you

Mutt's Revenge
by Mutt's Revenge
I've been waiting for these guys' record to come out for a long while, and it's sweet! Totally shreds but is also pensive and, at times, pretty.
