The Stickler

LETRA

The Stickler

The pen and pad that assembled my life
Was just a rag in an oil field
I could grab any word like a knife
But when I stab I annoy you
Paralyzed the barrel pointing at the page asking for a chapter
The perils in the careful
Am I getting weak?
Can’t I do this faster?
The torrent of average little stanzas that came
I ain’t got a secret bitch
Just make yourself a slave
There’s no peace for me
I’m your medicine
Can you tell me what you want
That’s better than
There’s no end to this
I’m your sisyphus
Can you tell what you want from me
That’s better than this
Where’s my sanctuary
Pushing up this hill is getting pretty fuc*** old
Showering
Empowering
Devouring
Until I feel complete
Aspiring
Acquiring
Conspiring
Until I can defeat
Summon up the beast
Let him of the leash
Alt control delete
Born into the spawn
Terraform
Throw the ring away
Go back to the shire
You’re so righteous and patronizing
Wave goodbye while your life’s capsizing
What’s beyond the black hole?
Where we lose all control
Vines
Weaving through the slain
They wanted the best in the business
We’re showing our age
Hell of a weight on the reigns
Hell of a way to the grave
Hell of a favor to give what’s intended
And stick to the principal man
I think I’m ready to get out of my cage
Should I try?
Who needs to rescue who?
I think I’m ready to grow out of the rage
So I bathed
And God made me choose
It ain’t nothin’ but a happy meal in a cup
I’m fake laughing at the crappy feel
In my gut
I think I’m wise when I’m wearing the guise
Either close to being savvy or I’m ruining my life
Am I done?
