Vomiting

Vomit

I used to think my thoughts made me mad - then I realized I was just mad, with thoughts
Taught my hands to speak my mind - the inside of a fist is soft
Had 6 strings to take my mind off of things - to ventilate hostility with positivity
And control my aggressive tendencies - cause what I am is what you hear
It's a piece of me to outlive my flesh - and continue my bloodline
Like a child, yet complete in it's form - like a child, but you can't mold it wrong
An angry kid becomes an angry man
And the pendulum swings like a thinking mind
The pendulum swings and it passes time
Like a mood it swings me wide
Until I've lost my balance and fallen to it
Like a mindquake it puts me through it
Like a hand shake it greets me
As it cheats me of a content life
And in the end we bend to make amends
Before your own angst eats ya
And to those that made winter so cold
I hope your food repeats ya
And in my darkest room I feel my way through - guided by a short leash
Made of sound to keep down - the part of me I fear
It's a piece of me that puts my flesh to the test - gives it power
And devours my awareness - of what's waiting under my skin
It's a piece of me to outlive my flesh - and continue my bloodline
Like a child, yet complete in it's form - like a child, but you can't mold it wrong
An angry kid becomes an angry man
And the pendulum swings like a thinking mind
The pendulum swings and it passes time
Like a mood it swings me wide
Until I've lost my balance and fallen to it
Like a mindquake it puts me through it
Like a hand shake it greets me
As it cheats me of a content life
...And in the end we bend to make amends
'Cause any one of us can blow up
And so I'm not covered in your food before ya do
I really hope ya throw up
An angry kid becomes an angry man
And the pendulum swings like a thinking mind
The pendulum swings and it passes time
Like a mood it swings me wide
Until I've lost my balance and fallen to it
Like a mindquake it puts me through it
Like a hand shake it greets me
As it cheats me of a content life
...And in the end we bend to make amends
'Cause any one of us can blow up
