Lawrence Arms The First Eviction Notice
a temple corroded. eviction pending. embrace me, old nights, gray sky, streetlight. lyrical descension. attention fading. breathless i'm a mess. kissless i'm in distress. i'm barely breathing. this crowning anguish, looked up nervous reflex. i've got to build up from the inside. a relapse. reflection. distorted. repression's smiling spitefully. longing for you to sew up my seams. i'm barely breathing. i've abandoned old identities, skin i couldn't fit into, songs i couldn't write, my voice will fade into this starless night. can i get much blinder? can i kick myself much harder? have i accepted this, to torture myself? you can't see me. have i invented you? i'm barely breathing.
