lyrics
..I’m pretty sure there’s not much left, so
Here it is, a selection of beat poems
A selection of songs, while I’m in the throng
Of thoughts and misnomers
Inscribed by the "tomers" [sic. writers]
Writing the histories, the victor decrees
What is remembered, likely not me
And just like that, ten years rolled on
What happened to the promise I bet on (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled on
What happened to the promise I bet on (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled by
Pretty disappointed, hoped I‘d die (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled by (deja vu)
…
I won’t misrepresent
It wasn’t a lapse of judgment
But a full on fucko-boingo
Error rate max, synchronization lost
What it takes to get accosted, by
Ill thoughts possessed by demons
Waking up screaming
You goddamn, fuck
And just like that, ten years rolled on
What happened to the promise I bet on (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled on
What happened to the promise I bet on (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled by
Pretty disappointed, hoped I‘d die (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled by (deja vu)
I can only talk in vague terms
A skeleton buried so deep
But not far enough into the ground
It still emerges when I try to sleep
I put it in the closet and threw the key away
It still tried to escape
In that room underneath those lights
With the oath that was caught on tape
Past transgressions come to haunt us
Past aggressions love to taunt us
Getting thrown underneath the bus
Left me just a big ol’ husk
Because I’ve been eaten away from the inside
I promise you I never lied
Well that would be affront to my mission
Well I guess I only lied by omission ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And just like that, ten years rolled on
What happened to the promise I bet on (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled on
What happened to the promise I bet on (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled by
Pretty disappointed, hoped I‘d die (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled by (deja vu)
And just like that, ten years drifted away
Fuck what happened on that awful day (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years drifted away
Fuck what led up to that awful day (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled by
Pretty disappointed, hoped I‘d die (deja deja)
And just like that, ten years rolled by (deja vu)
