Artificial Energy(isms)
don’t want this thing in my chest
its odd and it beats bump bump
in all a rhythmic ways
but yet, the coffee, the coffee, endless coffee!
Adderall, prescription Adderall
And Rockstar Times Two Caffeine
Can’t be swell, can they
With the ciggyrettes
And the starvation
My little pittering pattering thingy
In my little chestal cavity thar
It must be very
Uhhh
It’s working too hard.
Stop it!!! I don’t ever listen though
‘cuz I need the energy, you see
false though it may be
I derive it from endless caffeine
Without ye caffeine
I would be asleep
Constantly sleeping
