about

OUTSIDER ART

dedicated to my heroes on the other side; may they each live a thousand lives

lyrics

play it like i'm fated from the start
i can't get too close to you
without losing my heart

when the day comes that i depart
i hope you remember
we're all fragile works of art
(x2)

all my heroes die
they're all stars in the sky
i feel demons in my eye
every night, every time uh

hear them in my mind
out of time
no punchline

pistol at my side
eagle eyed
never confide

*verse*
focused on my fits
in the strobes
i'm ian curtis

head feels like a brick
notting hull
jimi hendrix

summertime got so sick
asked kurt c what he did
eyes wide and his head split
"found the nearest exit"

i can't let my mom die
almost took myself too
heroes aged past 25 (two-five)
i'm older than some of you

when i sleep at night
dream of the 27 club
every time we meet
say they wish they got to grow up

how can they be loved
devil's date, then not show up
found the other day
hanged himself from his soapbox

mcqueen on my screen
when he screams i get locked out
mental is a compound
up so i can't shut down

hair up on my neck pricks
i feel spirits effortless
hangmen tie their own knots
judas' tree on my thoughts

cut my hair like peep
that spring i felt his energy
terrence malick's hero
but his psyche was the enemy

i feel like a weapon
i can't let my loved ones know me
geriatrics hold me
suicide by police

had to use effects
i'm sorry
for the disconnect

made it hard to hear
all this pain
mental defect

chains feeling heavy like a gallon on my chest now
feel it bubble in my blood like i should lay to rest now

virgil got a padlock on my wrist
going nuts

god i'm in my twenties
please let me grow up

love to my family
hold it down
i'm alright now

i'll go take a walk
count my breaths
make it right now

love to my brother matt
know he'd always come through
pray i never have to
but you know i'd kill for you

play it like i'm fated from the start,
i can't get too close to you
without losing my heart

when the day comes that i depart
i hope you remember
we're all fragile works of art
(x2)
