bruises from event horizon by deer in headlights
i was so scared people wouldnt understand the meaning of this song i eventually wrote out that final post chorus monologue to kind of lead people to the conclusion. its essentially just a 3 part argument.
1- i was a sensitive child that cried too much
2- became a walled in person that hides too much
3- now i'm too defensive to actually feel pain and have stuff to write about, so all my songs are shams

Lyrics
i used to fall and cry
flinching at someone just was holding up their arm
i soon realized
we're just bags of blood
and were set to burst
so i always feared the worst
even if it wasnt serious
you could bet on my tears
to make giant storms
in small paper cups
the one thing i could count on
was my father telling me
stop being a sissy son"
you bleed yourself out
something to write a sad song about
you used to fall cry
but you dont even get bruises anymore
now im careful with my steps
i barely even fall
now i just create walls
timid full of self defense
paired with a demeanor
and a resting bitch face
now im close to adulthood
but in reality
im a lonely touch starved child
trying to pretend they're not
you bleed yourself out
something to write a sad song about
you used to fall cry
but you dont even get bruises anymore
now i explore fake sorrows
im to careful to even experience
in the form of long for msongs
emotionally fraudulent works of art
these walls are umbrelas for my feelings
but if i walk alone in the rain
the sky will do the crying for me
in reciprocity
(epic guitar solo)
