lyrics

I feel insufferable
Stoic and monotonous
A fleshy lepidoptera with stunted metamorphosis
Lulled to be invulnerable
The comfort of the argonauts
Prick my palm on aloe vera
Over time the blood will clot

Hemorrhaging while I paint on a smile
Men do not cry, they discharge bile
Pollinating salts to preserve weltanschauung
If ever in danger, rely on your guile
Never admit when you act in the wrong
Bugs are a scourge and shall never belong

When did I grow so detached?
Jaded and cynical before I could drink
Proximal love taken for granted
Sheltered and privileged with nothing to prove
When will I ever sprout wings?
I've got all six legs with citygaze for days but nowhere to go
I want something to lose

Perhaps it is I that's in need of a soul search

Visions of Wicca sashay where I tread
I gleefully digest all the ergot I baked in the bread
The bread! (x3)
A fungus will soon make its way through my head

Frankly, I'm nervous that I may be losing my empathy for people outside of my niche
I treat my community as if I'm a lich
Sometimes it feels like my humanity is diffusing when I get hung up on why I exist rather than buck the heck up and persist in caring for people that love me
