we’ll I’ve been getting older
But I ain’t been growing up
Lately my self evaluation
…isn’t measuring up
I’ve been putting paint chips on a wall I’m never going to paint
Raking leaves into a pile I’m never going to scoop
It’s been about a year since I turned 27 and I been thinking about Cobain
…
But 27 isn’t going to be another unfinished challenge
This ain’t like the paint
… but then again I started this in 2020 and it’s nearly ‘22
It’s 1:00am and I’m spiraling, cause sleeping is something I can’t seem to do
And god what is this
Loathsome chain of thoughts
I can’t finish even one thing anymore
I’m afraid I’ve already lost
The person I would have been,
should be,
might be?
The loves I’ve had and things I did have all forgotten me
It’s been too long since I did them right
Too long since I did them true
Too long since I did anything at all from beginning all the way through
And fuck, I gotta ask myself
‘hey me, who are you?’
