they don't make ceilings for people this tall

at one point
everything breaks
somewhere
silently
somewhere
violently
everything breaks
at one point

if i knew then
what i know now
if i knew everything
somehow
if i knew everything
knowhow
what i know now
if i knew then

give me a break said the metal plate
rubbing up against the rubber grate
so i turned off the sound and dulled it down
we stopped rolling round all on the ground
sucked on my death and thought for a sec
maybe your lips never really met my neck
or maybe i imagined this whole damn thing
and i'm not such a giant, it's not what i seem
is it not what i seem, is that so obscene
to think i am so tall looking down on everything?

took what i took
swallow or suck
stay down
lay down
stay down
grey now
swallow or suck
took what i took

rained in my room
gray cold and wet
it's funny though
because
it's not funny
enough
gray cold and wet
rained in my room

looking back i stuttered when i spoke
and maybe you could have seen me choke
if you would have ever tried to look close
or ever once decided to keep something closed
i've got a lot of death left and life i've spent
but nothing else to compare it against
everything at once, nothing at the same time
thesis and synopsis caught both in the same rhyme
life isn't hard when your living like me...
it's only hard if that's what you make it out to be
like me.

the buzzards ate her dry
in the heavy sun
and i was one
it was a heavy sun
and when i was done
i decided to run.

i take pictures of angels
like that's the purpose
i take pictures of angels
not that they'll develop
i just take pictures of angels
so i knew i was there

i carried the world on my shoulders
and still opened doors
lay my body on the floor
just to be sure
that i was the y in your
until i got sore.

i take pictures of angels
like that's a purpose
i take pictures of angels
not that i'll keep em
i like taking pictures of angels
because i can

getting lit

falling higher to the ground
how i dissected the sound
when i hit when i hit
getting lit.

no matter what the vibration
it follows through space and
i flip i flip
getting lit.
