about

“Failure is extremely straightforward in meaning, you’re sick of being a failure. You’ve tried and tried, again and again, and can never seem to reap any rewards. But, you should never surrender to these failures. Become the better you and overcome your issues. You live one life, use your one chance to leave a powerful effect on humanity. Everyone is human and makes mistakes, everyone has regrets. Identify your problems, admit you aren’t perfect, but realise you aren’t imperfect either. Use your strengths and passions as a tool to lead a life of fulfilment.” - Riley Fox

lyrics

I fucking hate your basic style of suicide. Zero-sum game, you're the only one to blame. I said I fear a lonely death but my death to loneliness is my only fear, I said. Blank apology - I would love to borrow three. But can I trust these cunts when I tell them 'promise me?' Such a fucking waste of time and space and air and taste and care and face and hate. // I'm just binary, just strings, just atoms, just pixels. So violently, ears ring, relaxing, I miss this. Go quietly, listen, I've captured the witness. Non-silently, it begins, old masters, new systems. // It seems so abstract how you don't believe me. Minute after minute I still get that feeling. It seems so abstract how you don't believe me. Minute after minute I still get that feeling. // CLIMB, CLOSE YOUR EYES, STAY CALM. EVER SINCE I'VE BEEN A FAILURE. EVER SINCE I'VE BEEN YOUR FAILURE. // Mental issues leave its scar tissues. As my theorems turn to deliriums. It's not a case of this or that or how or when or where or why or what or who. Counting backwards, when will I reach negative? Here's my confessions and don't redact the expletives. Not enough time is left - I'm blind and deaf and 50 seconds till I'm dead. // I'll never be a cunting failure. I'll never be your cunting failure.
