High School Feelings

a version of me used to think about eternity

I was so innocent to the worlds misery

my relationships had goals of a future untold

But I chatted to demons that stole my soul

it’s the foreign war that makes me want more

addiction doesn’t mean you’ve done it before

it feels good to work like I’m finally visible

maybe that’s what happens when life becomes livable

the idea of teaching gives me high school feelings

now my genes are a prize that I won’t be keeping

my energy is pure because they all stopped stealing

what kind of happy have you been eating?

if you aren’t afraid, your dreams might go away

take one step forward to get to that day
