Eris On The Run

Eris on the run

Far beyond the pines

She's been wide awake

Since birth year number nine

Parents belly flopped

Neighbourhood of crime

Pornographic ads

No fucking nursery rhymes

No fucking story time

Just fucking sounds all night

Learned fight or flight

From Smashed out doors and lights

Im damaged

Not like you

Savage

Yeah its true

Salvaged from abuse - been suffering from acute

Paranoia, lost

In the foyer

Court appointed lawyer

Bus stop made of glass - trapped inside its mass

Hauling all this shit

When did my mind split

Pipes and shanks and gowns

I stole from china town

Lost but nevеr found

Can't never shut me down

Mеmories won't die

Bludgeoned from inside

Keep me deep-fried

Keep me fucking high

Yeah kept from going dry

Corrected all the time

I never got It right

Fish pucks purple juice

Trays served at the booth

One cell for 10 perps

Caught stealing drugstore percs

Juvenile yeah!

What the fuck is that

Incarcerated youths corrected for their pasts

Passed out on the couch

He looked really dead

Black and blue was normal

Dog was never fed

All these images

Seeping out at night

As I lay awake

Grasping for the light

Grasping for the straw

That siphons fentanyl

Want to reconcile

Searching far and wide

Casket for the husk

Of my inner child
