Ground Friend, Boom! (freestyle)

lyrics

Well it's 10:53
Won't you look at me before I have to take the train out of town
I didn't want it to be this way
But you left it all around

How many guitars equal a father,
How many goodbyes equal a mother?
That's what I wanted but I never even got enough
And I sit in the spot where I burned to the ground
Had my heart on the sound of the mix
Did you hear this new mix?
But it burned to the ground

And I saw the flower where I collapsed on the ground
It was purple
I don't know if that's important
But it seemed like it was important at the time

And that's why I sit by the side
But I can't get high
'Cause last time, I got too high and touched the sky

I don't eat pasta anymore
Can't tell you why
Makes me feel sad and bloated
Like I could cry

There's things that I don't say but I want to
There's people I could've been but I forgot to
That's what I thought
But I could never do that to you again
Do that to you my friend

And I could've been a better friend
And I could've been a better beginning, beginning to end

And why do I care what it looks like
As long as it's forward and not backwards and not back in the backwards Of the back of the front of the back of the backwards place
As long as I'm not charging crystals and drawing shit on my face
I call that progress

And I remember the time
When I sat in armchair all day
Because I thought I could travel through time
And everybody who passed on the sidewalk was a relative of mine
And I was looking back from the future
Looking at these grandchildren of mine

Me and my dog
Me and my dog
Waiting for the world to end, end

Me and this time
Me and this wine
That I should not be having
