1
I know the rules
still I tap the gas
test the flame
mouth open
beggin for the burn
the world says wait
I say fuck that
I’ve never paid attention to warnins

2
my voice shakes
when I sing
too honest
too raw
I liked it better
when the notes blurred with whiskey

3
sobriety feels like
holdin glass in my mouth
and callin it recovery
spit or swallow
either way
I’m gonna bleed

4
silence from the radio
fingers drummin anxiety
into the wheel
red stretches too long
like it wants me to think
that’s the real danger
thinkin

5
there’s blood in my metaphors again
guess that means I’m feelin
guess that means I’m alive
guess that means I’m still not done
cuttin pieces off myself
and callin it art
