Oscillating vision fading
Footing isn't found
It's a simple harm no foul
Unless the foul is finding out
And It grows...
But excusing all excuses
Happens to be my forte
Along with smut and glut and drinking lots
Don't say that’s not okay
And it breathes...
So I pop a couple quiet downs
Cuz I can barely sleep
But its inciting, biting, uninviting thrashing inside me
And it goes...
Gnashing in, your stomach friend
Glowing growing, punching, sobbing
It's the warmest place I've been
Thank you host, you've been the most
Easy feast I've ever leeched now have
Another glass let's toast
Pop some pills, watch me spill
Eroding, bloating, caustic, trenchant
When I dance your body wrenches
Here I am
Here I’ll stay
Made my bed now here I lie
I’ll be here til the day we die
Conclusively the time had come
To call upon the doc
And he prodded poked and scoped
And all the while looking shocked.
And he left...
He left the room and I presumed
The outcome wasn't good
The doctors face was pale and ailed
Hope I misunderstood
And he said...
I don't know how to put this
But there's something near your spleen
There's something near you kidneys and there's something in between.
This force it just keeps growing
And I swore I heard it speak
At this point my stomach burst and the mass began to shriek
Gnashing in, your stomach friend
Glowing growing punching sobbing
Its the warmest place I've been
Thank you host, you've been the most
Easy feast I've ever leeched now have
Another glass let's toast
Pop some pills, watch me spill
Eroding, bloating, caustic, trenchant
When I dance your body wrenches
Here I am
Here I’ll stay
I made my bed now here I lie
I’ll be here til the day we die
