the spectrum of emotion isn’t a spectrum at all, it’s the deep-end of the ocean.

relying on the swing from point a to point b is a funny way to live.

highest highs

that lead to lower lows

falling off the edge of the world

is a synonym for your norm

nothing surprises you anymore

you do it all

even what you’d call

“a bore”

yeah keeping yourself alive is such a fucking chore

you say the cup is half full

you say “it’s alright”

you take it like lessons in school

but who’s refilling the cup?

when you’re so busy from sunset to sun up?

what if one day

the cup goes empty

that low feeling doesn’t fade into a higher high

what if you get stuck?

stuck thinking that you just...

you really don’t want to wake up.
