once a playlist, always a playlist

you're a song i can't forget
always running through my head
i can't press stop on that
pesky playback set
you're an infinite playlist
always running through my mind
oh how i wish you could
simply shut up and die
stop invading my private thoughts, where you usually reside
strumming away on your acoustic guitar, as i lose
my mind to your parasitic love
sometimes i don't make any sense in my own rhymes
how is it that you can look into my eyes?

[pre-chorus]
with some insane thing i don't
want to call love
emotions crawl out of my mind
as we look forward to your
demise
[chorus]
some dreams
don't make any sense
in my messed-up head
scattered memories
mingle with present-day
horrors
i'm sleep-deprived, the hazy blessed
stormy eyes, blue with ice
haunt my conscience.
i don't know what i've done
to deserve your mess.

i'm lost in translation
directions don't matter much
in the middle of LA and Oceanside
Venice screams away, ocean waves
crash upon the shore
my thoughts don't feel so scattered
anymore
you reach for my scarred hand
and I lean away
you've already done enough
damage to my broken heart

[pre-chorus&chorus]
bridge
the sky falls down
little pieces of my soul return
i had been lost, but now found
in the midst of your, my, apologies
[chorus]

i am falling
falling
down
i am falling, i am falling
into your once reluctant (arms)

[chorus]

maybe your playlist is here to stay.
