Ready 4 the World

I stick my fingers into the soil
And I make moves like I pick roots
And all I want’s to do the things I like
So I get prudent
Instead of brooding
But here he comes, the product of the transfer
Solvent to the things he finds distracting
And all the way you’ll fall
Harder
Faster
And now I think I’m ready to go
Are you listening intently?
What am I saying on the outside?
Is it friendly?
In your mind is it interpreted as honest?
When the words flow is it total?
Are you honest?
Is it total?
Silence is imploring such intentional motions when all I see is upwards
It gets written out so I remember
And all my words remind me of that house
It makes me shaky
I miss it dearly
But when I stick my hands into that ground
It’s amazing
I’m amazing
But here I come, the product of the transfer
Solvent to the things I find distracting
And all the way I’ll fall
Harder
Faster
And now I think I’m ready to go
Are you listening intently?
What am I saying on the outside?
Is it friendly?
In your mind is it interpreted as honest?
When the words flow is it total?
Are you honest?
Is it total?
OH ARE YOU READY
FOR THE WORLD
I’VE BEEN LATENT
MAYBE
HEY

Hey, I’m tearing it up with you my friend and everyone I know believes the same as me
They all believe the same as me
Now you sit perpetually undiscerned
Incredibly enraptured by your mind right now
The words no longer in your mouth
You didn’t notice missing out
I see it in those weary eyes
And now because she’s all you have
I’m hoping that you take it all
My eyes, I have seen you all your life
I’ve seen you grow in many different ways to use up all your time and slowly waste away your mind
Consequently, I’ve been figuring it out
Therapy has really helped me understand your mind right now the words no longer in your mouth
You didn’t notice missing out
I see it in those weary eyes
And now because she’s all you have
I’m hoping that you take it all
BREAK YOUR LIFE INTO PIECES
WHY WON'T YOU DO WHAT YOU TELL ME
I JUST WANTED TO LOVE YOU

I'm looking around up here and I decide
I say bubye bubye bye byebye
I stop to stand and breathe
and appreciate my life
Don't help me
When I fall
Please stand there
And just watch
I try to ride this landmine
Feeling better and better off
Stress encloses my mind
All these obligations
They're piling and stacking with no sense of resting
Images of burning up but I can't help feeling the silence
In my mind there's no way out
Cause i'm turning into ashes
I'm turning into ashes
I'm turning into ashes

Eighth year
My mind was a black hole
And everyone I knew could see
Everyone I knew could tell
Sucked in
My mind was a spaceship
And everything I had would go
Everything I had would go
Now I’m standing tall
I’m a tree
Now I've landed here
To just be me
Daydream
Of what is out there
Until it seemed to wipe away
Away from all my memories
Wander off beyond the blue walls
Cause I thought I was stuck inside
I thought that there was no escape
Now I'm standing tall
I'm a tree
Now I've landed here
To just be me
Now I'm standing tall
I'm a tree
Now I've landed here
To just be me
