[please think of a random phrase or sentence, you’ll need it later. examples include: “hello” “Caution, wet floor” “All gender restrooms are on the fourth floor” “Hail satan” “I wish I could take back what I said to you, and believe me if I could I would” “fuck this” and “no”]
And I can't stop unraveling myself every time I see my reflection
I should really give her a break, you know?
she's trying her best or something close to it at least
My eyes are spinnin' in my head like those big slot machines in casinos and I'm just hopin' they'll land on the same dumb little image of cherries
Sometimes when I see my reflection it's like walking through a haunted house maze and getting kissed on the mouth mid scream by a scare actor with one of those cold sticky-not-sticky rubber masks on -
kinda hot if you're into that whole sorta thing
Honestly this whole country song and line dance is so pathetic
Who cares what the bouncy ball in my head is hitting as long as I'm still breathing?
Me. I care. Deeply. Reverently.
but when I pick up the candlestick telephone and hold it to my ear it’s just
…
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
…
Alllllll dial tone.
I want to hold my stupid little wet-paper-peeling heart in my hands and read what's written on it
“[enter random thing here]", it says
I don't know what you thought it would say,
But I think I thought it would be more profound
Or at least some lottery numbers
Right?
[please comment what phrase you added, I'd love to know!]
