I'm not feeling too good tonight... Other than saying that I still feel pretty damn stuck, I'm not into explaining why. I haven't been on here for a while, and that's because I've been a lot busier, therefore not really writing anything. But that's why I'm here again tonight... I wrote these within the last hour. They're some lyrics about this annoying phase, and the title for them is "Extra (and) Lesser One".
"Extra (and) Lesser One"
-Rick, "RiCterMan," Strayer, fecit.
It’s not every now and then that I am set aside;
It’s more often than not.
I’m left to feel left out, and always left unacknowledged.
It’s more than a million mindless shrugs aligned
and sent to my muted heart.
It’s wanting to scream out, but instead scorned to silence.
There is nothing I have felt,
other than this that
makes me shrink down, and also explode,
with always the same result:
(Chorus)
Degradation inbound...
I’m only extra; excluded. -Right now.
Degradation inbound...
I’m only extra; lesser in life and refuted. Now,
just the wasteful one.
I wasn’t the same man.
I crumbled the pavement.
I wasn’t awake and
I wandered astray when
I should’ve known.
-I should’ve known.
-I should’ve
thought of the ways that
I could have embraced, and
in taking them, saving
myself from displacement.
I should’ve known.
-I should’ve known.
-I should’ve tried...
to become the man I am.
(Moderately Long Interlude, envisioned.)
There is nothing I have felt
other than this that
makes me shrink down, and also explode,
with always the same result:
(Chorus)
There is nothing I have felt
other than this that
makes me shrink down, and also explode,
with always the same result:
(Chorus)
So now I’m disgraceful,
and now I’m the one
who serves as example
for “someone gone wrong.”
I am the failure.
-One to be noticed,
then left unnoticed,
labeled “little imbecile.”
I should’ve known.
-I should’ve known.
I should’ve strained some more,
through my bandaged eyes.....
(Short arrangement for Outro)

That's that, and it was straight from the heart. They always are, and these are just another testemant to why every kid should understand that the days of adolescence don't last forever. As there came a time for me, where I should have been directing myself, every one of them, now and forever, will see that time. Missing it has brought on bigger consequences than I could've imagined, but at the same time, I didn't really care to imagine anything in my future. I didn't even care about what was the present... Looking back, I wish I did, 'cause now, no one gets that I care..... Later, everyone. |
