stronghold embrace; absolve old skins of absent selves
lay friends to waste, and race back to the gallows where
you don’t get so flustered
shot by some praise, a slight inflation at the wound
hats off, too scared, ease and contentment all consumed
by some frailty complex
onset insight, inside the numbers don’t match up
takes up my time and prompts me to count backwards
eyes on your back, a conundrum magnet
lay waste to soft devotion just to amass more corrosive habits
while curbing exposition sickness on the way
sanctioned by a need for acceptance and a lack of attention
subtle hints of a vague reaction,
condescend swelling, and equipped to cower
stronghold embrace; absolve old skins of absent selves
lay friends to waste, and race back to the gallows where...
eyes on your back, a conundrum magnet
lay waste to soft devotion just to amass more corrosive habits
while curbing exposition sickness on the way
sanctioned by a need for acceptance and a lack of attention
everybody's got their secrets leading them to special hells,
in the end we're all delinquents even if it's hard to tell
