Rushed this song but its been so long since I've put anything out.

lyrics

Monster is out of bed again.
Yelling at each other, neither understands.
"Everyday feels like the last one",
She said "you're telling me,
Like I've left the house in weeks?"
I wouldn't suggest going outside anyways,
this world will tear you to shreds,
like the bed which you lay.
Lackaday through everyday,
Daydreams of kill or be killed.
Empty and the bowl is filled.
Pendulum bait is overhead.
Sick illusion, single option, hanging by a thread.
He just walks out the door,
pretends he can't hear the beg.
still find a way to practice on the legs.
And the altitude that can't be deduced.
Shitty mood and a life I didn't choose.
Swingin' door, another excuse.
Never knew the opaque person.
Only ever scratched a human face.
Rabid alley, (search for) natural daylight.
Do (what i can) my best to forget my name.
(did you have a better home?
somewhere to appreciate the mess.
was your best enough to scratch ends meet?)
