while you’re out there doing things and making a name for yourself
i’m writing down the names of shitty people from the exploring age
and the bread i had for dinner was blue and molding
and i didn’t know till it was rotting inside of me
the alcohol dries too fast on my teeth
i’d rather suck it down, i’d rather never sleep
i’d rather throw it all up till i had nothing left in me
so i didn’t have a job or any responsibilities
stacking up the books i’ll never read
52 percent on my math test
and i’ll blame it on being 9pm again
texts from a friend so sporadically
didn’t talk to them for two months after i came clean
i need to say i’m sorry that’s the first thing that i’ll say
but i’m too scared to walk up in the halls
i’ll probably walk away
first thing
reaching the highest shelf is unseen
the one that has the better part of me
i'd rather let it go (i'd rather let it go)
i'd rather let it go, let's not talk anymore (i'd rather let it go)
i'd rather be alone (i'd rather be alone)
i don't think i'll talk anymore
