Early mornings, late nights, and nobody leaves until the ball drops. Sound familiar? College, internship, all those drills take a lot out of you. I hope they don’t start with the teeth!

I’m stretched thin, looking for a new place to live with all those online systems that never mesh well. It’s not all about grabbing that perfect deal either. A house isn’t a home unless you make it your own. Still, even if I’m not looking for perfection, it’s a whirlwind to deal with.

If you’re looking for a cool time today, grab a hike after work. Mondays are hard enough as is. Here’s a piece I prepared just for you. Keep busting back your monsters, alright?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Throw Me a Bone

Sinking an ocean for science
Thinking of ways to get by
Nobody’s certain
What’s behind the curtain
And everyone’s asking me why

Red eyes or purple
Hoops or a hurdle
Will it do tricks or devour

Or is it innocent
Give us another hint
Feeling a sweat drop down like an hour

But I can’t tell
The wishing well
It’s keeping it hidden away

Keep me unwilling
Undeserving
Speeding
Never swerving

Find me in the end when I’m sucking cologne
Never meet your heroes, throw me
Throw me a bone

Strike a guess
Monster mess
Why won’t it come out to play

Somebody tell me I’m awful
Praying you’re safe for another
Cause me my empty
I’m spilling my jaw-full
Killing my sister and brother

Tell me I’m nothing
And I can’t escape
Sell me my royals for diamonds

As long as I’m alone
I’ll blindly stumble home
Defining my fortress with lions

With steel and latex poking through my lung
I won’t remember how I sung

Keep me unwilling
Undeserving
Speeding
Never swerving

Find me in the end when I’m sucking cologne
Never meet your heroes, throw me
Throw me a bone

Popping the pills in a showroom
Painting myself like a joke
Working my ass of
A quarter to one
Selling my lunch for a toke

Kill me or leave me
Love me or see
Nothing is quite as it seems

But if you give a shit
Then do the opposite
Give applause with the raining moonbeams

Some say the people closer know you best
So why has no-one killed me yet

Keep me unwilling
Undeserving
Speeding
Never swerving

Find me in the end when I’m sucking cologne
Never meet your heroes, throw me
Throw me a bone
