Rabid

black mascara streaked like skid marks down my face
red blood brightening my black lace
excuse me if you will I'm a basket case
sanity is such an underrated trick
it's easier to prove I'm completely sick
broken doors tangled cassettes
I'm hindered by everything but regrets
who matters now who mattered ever
connection is a noble endeavor
what is left but a psychotic wreck
give this disaster her proper respect
