rather

I'm twins with a mattress, Gemini of a test

you're in thick pajamas rest in my damn chest

butterflies justify eating me with stress

I stutter cry, punch the sky, screaming ill never rest

endeavour to be the best, remember you'll be distressed

you'll defend your life pretend you're right and probably drown in sweat

yet I guess that's the price, to be found in signs and break

-fast cereal, household, outsold, plates, necklace

and serial murderers stained red dress

church workers crucifix

students with views of things, that first sentence were

its probably improbably the possibility of society presence heard

but present form quietly finally the items he said he'd never get he gets, the irony

so with iron fist I wish to be an anomaly oddity commodity so sorry B

no sorry seen to be found in me

but to ground keep me the hounds bark, speak and they scream

 

would you rather sell your soul to the devil or never have a soul at all

would you rather drop the ball or never have a ball to drop

would you rather jump the shark or never jump at all

would you rather loved and lost or never loved, full stop.

 

it should be clear, you risk it all and never listen to the backwards calls

 

 

I'm not quieting down, I haven't found the highest ground

so I'll pry around, ill scavenge now 'till I lion growl

while you're lying down, I'll wake you up and fly on, pounce

I've waited enough, you're waking up, no more sleeping on my shoulders

like boulders or ice holders no more creeping older

scaring me like the final night of October

sharing? this is the final fight no do-over

mess it? no followers no stock holders

I'm growing colder so I'm showing bolder

imploding freeloaders recording the gold words

aborting the old words and reporting the cold worms

so I'm sporting a cobra spitting venom saying no more

 

would you rather sell your soul to the devil or never have a soul at all

would you rather drop the ball or never have a ball to drop

would you rather jump the shark or never jump at all

would you rather loved and lost or never loved, full stop.
