big hard man with a flag in his bio
no pronouns 'cause he's just a normal guy
oh, profile picture of a football shirt
of course he's a man u fan
you find him in the wild on a tweet that says
"ugh, i hate men" this guy comes back with a thread
about how not all men would hurt and shout
not realising that he's the man they're talking about
and his bio says
"i hate lefty wankers"
well i got news for you
lefty wankers hate you too
anonymous icon
behind the screen
you fucking coward
god save the queen
and don't make fun of the royal family
big smart boy went to red brick university
shat out the other end with nothing but a business degree
and now he thinks that he rules the world
and he can't talk to girls so that means that they're evil
he upvotes every ben shapenny video
he doesn't realise he's nothing but an idiot
leaves a comment every time like "oh my god so true"
bestie he's not gonna fuck you
anonymous icon
behind the screen
you fucking coward
god save the queen
and don't make fun of boris he's trying his best
well his best isn't bloody good enough then

good morning springfield
good morning dad
i have news for you
but i'm not gonna tell you yet
my sister's living up there in the city now
she sure don't need us anymore
she comes to visit sometimes anyway
and sometimes she brings her girlfriends
and mom and dad don't look, but i do
i try not to look like i'm staring
and i don't know
if i want to admit it to myself
all i know is
the boy who lives down the street is really cute

well i'm tired and sad and i get that way
every time i leave the house these days
there's a nauseated feeling that's decided to settle itself
in the base of my ribcage
and sometimes it feels like the only thing keeping me going
is sitcoms on netflix
and the thought of going to school and getting a job
keeps making me physically sick
i just wanna live out the rest of my days
in a brick house out in the country
and me and my friends have a say in the way that it's run
and the people who live there are just like me
and we'll fly our flags from the rooftop
of our brick house up on the hilltop
and i'll never have to talk to anyone i hate ever again
we'll make it from scratch
when we run out into the wilderness
we'll take our bricks and concrete
and we'll build it up
for the roof we'll use sheet metal
for the windows we'll use recycled bottles
and in a three foot square patch left of the front foor
i'm gonna grow carrots
i just wanna live out the rest of my days
in a brick house out in the country
and me and my friends have a say in the way that it's run
and the people who live there are just like me
and we'll fly our flags from the rooftop
of our brick house up on the hilltop
and i'll never have to talk to anyone i hate ever again
we'll get away from all the talk
i'll plant my feet on a little walk
and we'll drink from the river
and we'll eat from the garden
love ourselves and our bodies
and we'll refuse to harm them
and we'll read books and watch movies
by people who are good
and try their hardest to put good into the world
and we'll cross the borders, won't follow orders
i'll pick you up, not put you down
and i hope that you will do the same for me
i just wanna live out the rest of my days
in a brick house out in the country
and me and my friends have a say in the way that it's run
and the people who live there are just like me
and we'll fly our flags from the rooftop
of our brick house up on the hilltop
and i'll never have to talk to anyone i hate ever again

eat my bones
and throw me prone
wring your neck
as you try to peck out my eyes
crack my skull
and make it full
a vulture's soup bowl from the blood you stole
lammergeier
lammergeier
lammergeier
lammergeier
i see you squawking your little head off
are there bones in it? do you need to cough?
you best stop talking to me overgrown parrot
talon to talon beak to beak it's apparent
that you don't respect me
that i don't respect you
i don't even want you to
i don't even like you
lammergeier
lammergeier
lammergeier
lammergeier
you're circling me
just waiting for me to die
you'll have your feast in time

i think you were evil
but you saved me
i think you were evil
but you did it anyway
running through the desert
i only had you
a pack of tiny beetles
i only had you
wingless we had to run
on spindly podomeres
i thought you were evil
but you would not let me die here
manticora are doombringers
that explains a lot
five evil little beetles
but we are all we've got
we should get together sometime
and it doesn't matter at all
doesn't matter at all

i aestheticised blood at a young age
when i would see it oozing from my knuckles
i would draw it with a spray brush in paint
coming from her eyes
i scraped my hands on brick on purpose
wanted to see them red
and i'd play until the metal cut my skin for me
and it'd come out and out and out and...
and there's blood pouring from the tips of my fingers
and i can't stop, won't stop
and the metal's in my blood and my blood is on the metal
and now everything tastes of iron
you see things before you can fully understand them
saw cut throats before i could understand that pain
i killed all my characters twice over
'cept for my baby i killed her thrice
i imagine my hands inside a ribcage
pulling everything out
my arms are bright red
and i don't know what i've done
i imagine my hands inside a ribcage
pulling everything out
and there's blood pouring from the tips of my fingers
and i can't stop, won't stop
and the metal's in my blood and my blood is on the metal
and now everything tastes of iron
and there's blood pouring from the tips of my fingers
and i can't stop, won't stop
and the metal's in my blood and my blood is on the metal
and now everything tastes of iron

so this is how the story ends
in the back of a honda cr-v
or the back of a ford fiesta
or the back of a nissan leaf
somehow i thought it'd be more glamorous
if we're going by how i feel inside
i think it ought to be televised
i think i'll stop
i'm sorry
so this is how the story ends
in the big stairwell in bronte
i'll throw myself down the gap in the middle
and i'll scream what i'm scared to say
it's a nice idea for certain
scare the kids who made me feel like shit
when i measure the gap in the railings
i realise i don't fit
of course
so this is how the story ends
alone on my kitchen floor
with my friends begging over discord
and i just breathe some more
with the tip of my blade sitting just under my stomach
and my mother not home for ten minutes
this knife is her favourite
she uses it to cut carrots and cauliflower
the handle is frayed and very old
the side of the blade is curved
my hands are shaky and white-knuckled
as i...
my story isn't over yet
my story isn't over yet
my story isn't over yet
MY STORY ISN'T OVER YET
the knife still sits in her drawer
she still doesn't know
what i wanted to use it for
she still cuts carrots and cauliflower

i'll sit in my room at night
and listen to my music real quiet
'cause my earbuds are busted
i'll listen to my mother snore
as i open my bedroom door
and try to keep quiet
i look outside to see the moon
she told me about this afternoon
and i can't see it
when she asks me tomorrow morning
if i saw it i'll tell her i did
'cause it'll make her feel better
sometimes you say things to me that worry me
things that make me think you're gonna do something dumb
you say, just don't worry about me
just feeling a little bit glum
just feeling a little bit glum
with the moon in the sky
i don't wanna see you cry
i wish you would talk more
i wish i could help more
