My Side
Y'know I flinched when I saw it,
I flickered like bic in the breeze
I had a thought, and then forgot it.
It was right there, like a blocked sneeze
I've struggled. Watching myself, I remember, freeze, regret.
It all hurts, nothin feels right. But I can't die, oh no, not yet.
So I struggle, watch myself set it to repeat, and forget.
Cause I saw it once, that mythical place.
It's shifty, It takes up many a face
I saw it in a drag queen's bed.
It was past those wondering eyes,
It was deep inside her beautiful head.
I saw it, where the bright side resides
Where we're all too tall to hide
She was real, I was almost there
I was looking for the me inside,
But I had never thought to care.
No perfect tone matched plastic faux grass
Still I saw, she found it, the good side.
And nowadays life just goes so fast
I get a pink slip before I ever apply
I make the wrong choice before I ever decide
Oh and if you're wondering where I'm going,
why I left, and what I'm looking for
You can read it all on the note on the door.
Oh I'm looking for that bright side, green side.
The good ol side, shiny never before seen side.
The take your time side, quick slip n slide side
The one without all the suicide side
I'm looking for where the flowers sometimes bloom,
Where there's only the occasional uncertain doom.
Where I'm myself and I'm that's all that's new
Where all the worst parts are already through
I'm so scared every single day,
But right now,I think I’ll find my way.
