Chum Bucket

Chum Bucket
By Completely Inadequate

[C.I.]
Run and hide
Shed my hyde
Dr. Jekyll
Mr. Hyde
Mystified
Missed our time
I was never good at byes
I don’t want to say goodbye
I just want to be alright
Elephant, you’re the mice
Plead the fifth, time to lie
So who am I, (yeah) who am I?
Taking it all personal in a skull i think is mine?
Just a - tiny dot, in a world filled with speckles
Of course I forgot, I’m so fucking forgetful

Remind me -

Who I really am and who you get to see
What mask am I wearing, who will people get to meet?
“Thought you were an asshole" became such a common theme
Overthinking every moment, when will I get to be?

Is this person really me
In the reflection that I see
Or should I peak
Inside a lucid dream
Catch me as I fall asleep

Hopefully
Hope will bring peace
I’m hoping for a sweet release
Hope fools, its fear it seems

Gaslight - where'd you sleep last night?
Never left, I passed right, just leave it in the past right?

What's real? All these people look like mannequins
I'm leaning towards the dark side, you can call me Anakin
You call on me, I'm panicking
Love is just a gambling
Outta be, abandoning
Cuz honesty's a man made thing

We'll never work out - together we’re obesity
Searching all around - for your suppos-ed deity

Let's play:
I'm the cloud
You're parade
I rain down
Constantly
What about?
Simple thangs
Simpleton sifting through his tender skin
Let em in, settle down to settle in, this is not settling
Mending turned to meddling
The world doesn’t stop just because you’re not peddling
Love’s more than wedding ring
When you get mad over anything
Digging my own grave, can you help with burying?

Death after life is just life after death
Yet this voice in my head, says to "do this instead"
I'm rooted and stretched and these bruised reach depths while confusion infuses as soon as you left
I’ve lost count of your steps so now where did you end? but wait Why does it matter, I'll never admit
No I'll never forget, yet I'll always submit, yeah I'll forfeit myself just to please you again...

Help me, with this.. decompression…
Sunken feeling … disconnected…
No more link to… recollection..
Start confessing … polygraph testing..

Help me…

Help me with this decompression
Sunken feeling, am I really disconnected?
No more link to that recollection
You better start confessing, I'm polygraph testing

Help me with this decompression
Sunken feeling, nerve endings disconnected
No more link to that stupid recollection
You better start confessing, I’m polygraph testing
