I Can't Get Myself to Go Away

Mason Vollman

I can't get myself to go away,

I'm lost and I cannot change,

I need help in every way,

I've always got something stupid to say,

I can't get myself to go away,

I'm always in sight,

standing in plains,

Why'd I let rage overtake what I say?

Why am I so stupid?

Why am I so messed?

Is any of this in my best interest?

Why am I still here,

Why can't I go away,

I can no longer steer,

There's nothing left to say,

Living life in the rear-view mirror,

For there's no other way,

I don't think I'll stay,

I'll set off to bay,

My flares have been rigged,

My hearts been betrayed.

Why am I still here?

Why can't I go away?

Go start running until your far, far away,

Why can't I fly?

Why cant I change,

I can't even die, when I'm standing in range.

Shoot the damn bullet,

Im here in the plains,

I'll close my eyes on creation,

as the slug penetrates,

I'll feel a burning sensation,

And the pain remains,

Ignoring the inflation,

And the invasion, of crayfish,

Entering the brain.

Why can't I get myself to go away?

I'm Going Insane!

I need to be tied to the front of a train,

in a stray jacket, upside down,

In vain,

As it gets hit by a plane,

full of jet fuel, and nitrous oxide,

and call in hogs,

To abide, and devour my remains...

..

...

.....

..See I'm going insane.

.

Why cant I get myself to go away?
