Mangy

Mangy
By Completely Inadequate

[C.I.]
Protective
Selective
& I take it all for granted till I feel neglected

Suspension
Ascension...
Up and up until I feel a connection

Recycle, Rehash, never learned to Relax
Criticize feedback, microphone throne - no seat-backs
Wait who’s that? Mr. backtrack?
Cracking backs just to force an acid flashback?

Looking for links to the past
Wheres the ocarina?
Gazing through the looking glass
But I haven't seen ya
After birth, before death
We’re just in-betweeners
Human breeders scared of being seniors...
On our last breath, shall we take a breather?

Wait..
Do I live to work or do I work to live?
Do I live to work or do I work to live?
Do I live to work?

No rest for the weary
Protest - oh so leery
Confess cuz I'm clearly
Depressed it's not a theory

Mangy Mutt
Preparing blunts
Too scared to jump
Debbie downer looking around for the right side up
I'm Upside DOWN, wait, where's the upside NOW?
Roadside CLOWN, okay, last act watch me DROWN
So tell me…am I, man enough now? Mismanage my doubt
Inorganic clouds, keep on following around

It's been a Short week, but a, long day
I just Can't speak, i don't, know what to say..
So Judge me, Since I'm, yours to take
But Lately, it all comes in waves

Little bit of good, little bit of bad
Little bit of mom, little bit of dad
Now look at that, a combination of thoughts, I'm stagnant
Passive, how could anyone let this happen?
It's madness, that everything we do becomes past tense..

We're fractions - of who we wanna be
We're ashes - in a phoenix style of belief
We’re matches - let desire be gasoline
We're addicts - hooked on drugs like sex and caffeine

24/7 grump
The curtains closed and times up
Serpents exposed with knives right behind us... so why trust?

In god I trust - If that god is us //
If not I must say something’s up//

(yup.)

I can not accept something just because//
Man doesn't know a thing
He just thinks he does//

Just a busy bee, searching for a buzz
Just a little boy, searching for a FUCKING hug
Just a human being, searching for some love
Just a little decoy awaiting to self-destruct

Toe to toe with never letting go
Hold it close but never let it show (x4)

Just a busy bee, searching for a buzz
Just a little boy, searching for a FUCKING hug
Just a human being, searching for some love
Just a little decoy awaiting to self-destruct
