Deeper shit und so

von Charlie Beerhold

Play pretend

he gave her lemons

she tried to make lemonade out of ‘em

but she died drinking

the lemons were poisoned

by the hand of the picker

Their own mess of a mind

talking ‘bout hiding behind a smile

people hide behind because they’re sad

am I right?

what about a secret file?

what if they’re just mad

they took off their mask

showed who they are

analyzing their mind is not our task

The cold air of six months

friendship

friends

what makes them who they are as friends

being near

being far

tell you their biggest fear

friendship

what if that’s their biggest fear

being far

being near

time’s gone

and still – we are here

Definition of morning

a new day, finally

sunrise, toast n tea

a warm bed, peace

at ease

sheets protect you ...

.. against what will make your day

.. from what you must safe again

Indigo

it took me years but now I’m almost ready

this is for you

I don’t know if there are any words left

I don’t know if I’m able to talk to you

I talked to you

twothousandandsixteen, twothousandandseventeen

teen

teens

we were younger

and maybe if I’d understand your words

Checkered neighborhood

house beside house impressive

garden next to garden magnificent

desperate people trying to live

selling their soul for paying their rent

silly talks about how life’s going

well

there’s a cannabis plant growing

inside my room

can’t you tell

zoom and see

please don’t sell you soul

ustJteens

glazed eyes; a blink

a blink; decisions

we’ve got desire, deep inside

and desire as a tough word

is not that deep

not that hard

we’re trying things

wanna know things

for sure

wanna cure
