Name: self care (interlude)
Duration: P00H01M43S
Description: i wrote this within 15 minutes of waking up one day and this wasn't originally supposed to be on the album, but thought this and coming to an end would juxtapose the last two songs being so heavy. these two are at least lighthearted and serious. this was one of the two songs made on ableton instead of FL, the other being the outro. also, enjoy the earth <3

lyrics

i love your soul for the sole time
console mines, but when lines get blurred
the borders confining coal mines
the whole time was saying that, was saying that

but now i don't feel the same way no more
don't sleep away the day
instead i use it on myself
i pled, and bled too many times
to rest, ingested all the medicine
and shit, and still not finding peace
within my head, i need some help
i put the food i stare at longer than eating
where it don't belong, back up on the shelf
til all the keys was dealt
and all the peace and treaties kept
and every burnt up secret left
i'm slowly relearning how to feed myself

every time i'm meager
every step i take that's weaker
mind me that i can't make it through the week
sans entire seasons leaving, it seems, it seems

when treated with a regal greeting
i drop to my knees, shaking, humbled
due to all the praises fleeting
case be leaking, brain is weeded
frame is rigid, time constricted
life is frigid, i don't get it
gotta find ways for me to be resilient
without needing pills and
outseeing shrills, the thrills distant
done been broken, hopeless, need fixing
trees twisted, wreaths hitting
