New Best Friend
All my friends, they fly too high. Just to get burned. But it looked like fun, so I gave it a try. Danger tastes so good. Yeah, it always does the first time. What could go wrong? We gave them wings with nowhere to fly. Gave them broken wings and told them to jump. All my friends, they fly too high. They all got burned when they touched the sky. Now I’ve got a new best friend. I can’t remember the last time I could live without it. We gave them wings with nowhere to fly. Gave them broken wings and told them to jump. So they crash landed at our feet. They crash landed like charred remains. My new best friend fills me with promises. My new best friend fills me with dirty blood. My new best friend just took my job. I think my new best friend is trying to kill me. So I watch as we all fall like dominoes. Spending my days swaying in the streets. This is no longer fun for me. The party’s over. But I can’t go home to a burning building. At least my new best friend is with me to the bitter end. This is the last time I give it a try. This is the last time I say goodbye.

We are the freaks. And we dare to believe. There is a place for us in this world. Full of narrow lanes. And rigged games. And confidence masking as intelligence. We dare to believe. That empathy is more than a nice idea. We dare to believe that you don’t want to fuck with me just because I breathe. We are criminals with no crime. They twist our words into crooked lines. We may win this war. It won’t be today. We have walk through fire first. We have to die of thirst to purge the poison in our veins. Television gives me dirty looks. Feeling guilty all the time. If you’re going to make me the criminal, let me do the crime. We may win this war. It won’t be today. We have walk through fire first. We have to die of thirst to purge the poison in our veins. We are the freaks. And we dare to believe.
