Prideful Things

 Song in the process.

People are prideful things.
Aren't they?
People are prideful things.
Aren't they.
How come that apology
couldnt fit
out of my big mouth?
I just want people
to be wrong.
How come shame hurts
more than heartbreak?
I just want people
to keep their
word.
Cause it sounded quite nice.
People are prideful things.
Arent they?
People are prideful things.

Lifejacket

Sexual Morse code

like the beam of a lighthouse

lured me into,

jagged rocks.

Far from the shores of

your affection.

You swayed and swelled like

a crashing wave

and as always,

I drowned without a life jacket.

I sunk like a captain,
meaningless,
without a ship. 

Get your breast stroke down.

 Arm over arm 

and foot over mouth. 

Stay between the buoys, 

where they want us to do laps. 

You swayed and swelled like

 a crashing raft. 

And as always, 

I drown without a life jacket. 

As always like a captain 

meaningless, 

meaningless 

without a ship.

Im drowning.
