[tardy sweep]

[verse 1]
i tire
of procrastinating
stalling
i’ve failed the system more than it failed me

i’ve fallen behind
in every aspect
art and passions deadened
with busywork

across these empty halls
i’d find solace leaning against a wall
letting it out

but instead of running from myself
i run from the intercom voice
will i make it before they sweep me up
spit me out
or will they have mercy

[chorus]
lend me an eye into the future
i’m unprepared
promising what’s great
but running late
[bridge]
i’ll fill my head with facts
and facts
but i’ve got nothing

no discipline
no gpa
no credits
and no resume

no sk!lls
no direction
no realistic aspirations

i’m lost and infantile
being hurled at new horizons
fast as sp~cetime expands

i’ll eat the crumbs of gatekept opportunities
from a plate of dreams broken
since my path was on a misread map
less traveled, left hand
never bitumen paved

[chorus]
lend me an eye into the future
i’m unprepared
promising what’s great
but running late
[friends in the back]

[chorus]
i’ll make my way
turn it around
soon i’ll be winning
widely grinning

[verse]
sitting in the corner
wanting out
wondering as always
what’s the point

it’s not safe in a school now
threats every day
but the grind is a necessity

they’ll cram our heads with facts
and facts
my thinking, it races
but no switch engages
i’m taxed and lost
oh, sleep is calling

[breakdown 1]
but what is life if not memorized
what is death if not synthesized
what is life if not memorized
what is death if not synthesized
what is life if not memorized
what is death if not synthesized
the need to shut my eyes reiterates inside
[bridge]
and i’m still
practicing to audition
for roles i didn’t get
and as the lights descend upon me
i realize i don’t know i am

amidst the systemic maelstrom
draining my lifeblood
the panic attack continues
undiluted
monotonic
all i can ask is the visceral question

[chorus]
if i’ll ever be winning
or find myself grinning

[breakdown 2]
(good afternoon. this is a message for students and faculty
testing, testing, 123…)

someone

take me back in time to start again

you hurt my ears
you grind my gears

friends
in
the
back

(that’s all for the announcements.)
