A silence begins between us and it doesn’t end.

Pleasure is never as pleasant as we expect it to be and pain is always more painful. The pain in the world always outweighs the pleasure. If you don't believe it, compare the respective feelings of two animals, one of which is eating the other.

Just tell me what you've got to say to me
I've been waiting for so long to hear the truth
It comes as no surprise at all you see
So cut the crap and tell me that we're through

All we are is breath against the glass
Just like the ashes of a fire fading fast

I will come back from the dead for you.

Let's skip it and get straight to the rabid dog at hand. This is some weather we're cowering from. Would you please touch my face like a blind person?

i don't like the way my voice sounds when i'm asking for help
don't wanna invite you into my problems. i'd rather help you with yours, and i will hold you up with hands trembling

You got a 9-to-5, so I'll take the night shift
And I'll never see you again, if I can help it
In five years, I hope the songs feel like covers
Dedicated to new lovers

Let's switch places.
Let's switch places.
Lucas. Lucas.
Let's switch places.
You're more...
You're more...

The same love never comes twice.

no—
You knew this would end in a knife fight. An exchanging of teeth.

I place your name in my mouth & spit

Love is not a fraud but there are many rumors.

STRANGER.EXE @strangerexe.bsky.social · 14h

the air smells like rain & you've started to forget about me.

The millionth end was vanity
I thought I saw you smile at me
The billionth or the trillionth end
I gave up counting how many

Here is the part where everyone was happy all the time and we were all forgiven, even though we didn't deserve it.

STRANGER.EXE @strangerexe.bsky.social · 17h

I am forever chained to myself; that's what I am, and that's what I must try to live with.

STRANGER.EXE @strangerexe.bsky.social · 18h

WE FORGIVE BUT WE DON'T FORGET

STRANGER.EXE @strangerexe.bsky.social · 19h

Do you love yourself? I don't have to answer that.

STRANGER.EXE @strangerexe.bsky.social · 20h

There was the time I came to your side
It was 3 AM and you were begging me to die
Another year was all it took for you to forget the best friend that always carried you

TO SURVIVE, I HAD TO KILL HER INSIDE ME.

Can we love nature for what it really is: predatory?

You won’t walk away, won’t you?
You don't walk away, don’t you?
You won't walk away, won't you?
You don't walk away, don’t you?

Yes, I know that love is like ghosts
Oh, and what ain't living can never really die
You don't want me, baby, please don't lie
Oh, but if you're leaving, I gotta know why
