Jones told me to remember this feeling
eyes dilated running across the ceiling
a challenge to be exquisitely pleasing
but they catch the express to experience something more dominating
she said shut up you’re overcompensating
too much then too little it’s invigorating
plastered to a device and scrolling
call it social desynchronizing
who’s to trust when they’re all evaporating
both itching for differences so no hookup
didn’t care to text why I think we just gave up
arrive slightly on time like hey boy sup
questioning everything about him became just my luck
my body displayed art but he didn’t give a fuck
sips tea alone after the date totally stuck
somehow I electrified him yet I’m feeling like an ugly duck
Whataburger forgot my onion rings now I’m saying they all suck
the privileged first world still with a funk
loaded with anticipation shocked in failure
try again and again crying to Jesus for a matchmaking tailor
second-guessing whether his father is truly my savior
crying loudly on the floor by the refrigerator
someone banging at my door I think it’s my neighbor
neighbor says shut up and figure it out on some graph paper
why’s everyone turning into an insignificant dictator
reverted to God saying thank you for voiding the incinerator
almost totaled my car a minute later
4:44 in the morning and I’m not tired
skin tight and smooth I’m one to desire
passions set sail in dreams but only once admired
just like the rest, he knows how to make someone feel fucking expired
whirl around a corner on heavy blame
journey to find love seeming untamed
the devil claimed me by claw and fang
numerology keeps me sane engulfed in ylang
dial tone click like thank you next I profusely sang
