Fell asleep on a Tuesday, I woke up on a Thursday
I tried to to get out of bed, you said stay
I couldn't leave you there all alone
So I stayed in bed for a week, I read a book about cannibalism, I read a book about meditation (they were all right)
We broke up on a Monday, it didn't hit me till a Wednesday
I tried to get out of bed, you weren't there
You asked me is this what I really, really want
So I stayed in bed for a month, I read a book about decisiveness, I read a book about hatred (they both sucked)
Chase that feeling, I'll hurl it from the coast I'm leaving
every outcome on the table.
Hell is in the detail, I'll lie with my feet still.
Force adjectives upon your face, I'm wasting
Hurry I'm wasting.
I got out of my film class
I bough a ginger ale pass
details into my brain
study new ad age
I bought a lot of sorrow
To get a big idea you break it into tiny ones
You take a shower, write shit down
Do prose, do fun.
I gave it all back.
