lyrics

aw fuck the form and the poetry
I just want you in your completeness
so complete me
I need completing
my happiness it is fleeting
I've got all my eggs in a basket
I'm a basket case
and case in point
people point and laugh
I feel like I'm having a heart attack

yeah I look like shit
and I feel like shit
and I act like shit
I'm a huge piece of shit
but you love me unconditionally
or like me and that's the same to me
every time a girl does a double take
I just fuck it all up
and every time someone says that they like me
I just fuck it the fuck right up
and I know that you're not interested
I wouldn't be interested in me either
and I know you can't look me in the eyes
i know that I can't either
i know that I should gucking die
believe me I've fucking tried
I know that I should fucking die
believe me I've fucking tried
but my friends all got tired of that quick
and the friends that all left, they said to eat shit

and normally I don't write three verses for a song
but more than the booze I think I'm addicted to self hatred
when I look in the mirror I seriously have to choke back vomit
and it's completely foreign to me that someone would look at me and not do the same
I'll be dead before I reach 25
and you can remember me in yearly Facebook posts
but deep down
we'll all be happier
