he might want me to fix him

but he doesn't want to be fixed

and i'd do anything to get him

to do anything but the same

but nothing is going to change

bad dreams eating him alive

consent to me is sexy always

and mutual respect is arousing

but first i need to be conflicted

show me what i'm losing for it

to chase tweets and rabbit holes

the perfect post, by yours truly

by the portion of volume alone

there is nothing more hollow

entire cities replaced by sinkholes

gamble in the bush replacement

none for the one bird already had

all over and covered in crumbs

i know you want forgiveness too

another lie i tell myself for you

i can even justify being your fool

because you said, "i love you"
