tapeface - canyon lyrics
[verse 1]
the highlight of her day was when she fell asleep
wishes she didn’t have to see anything but her dreams
wishes she could live life away from earth
live in a lonely atmosphere with barren deserts
and dirt, and no other people but her
as she hears the breaths calmly swell up and down her shirt
as she becomes one with the sun, the savior above
or the wise moon, for who she has much love
and as she stands on top of that cliff, it’s almost like the jagged edge is a gateway (a gateway)
the stars represent her secrets, secrets deepest
the moon’s craters listen to her everyday pains
to her wails, and to her endless screams and cries
to her pleas, to her pleas to end her life
it’d be so easy to just jump off that cliff
and fuse herself with the gr-ss and the trees
green she can’t see, no luck, she showed devotion
to this handsome guy, when all he did was control her
he made sure that he had his message heard
accepted love that he knew wasn’t hers
his life was all about the tubes and the poles, god knows the horrible things he did in those domes
and froze cold
influenced by the angel dust, offered his newfound victim some and left her at the hospital to get her stomach pumped
he’s just jumping along, humping along, can’t know what he’s done
with every single dump and toss and every single tar-
get practice, devilish acts, the fact lies in the meat
behind the bones, but there’s no reason to give up though, see?
she throws rocks over the edge to see how far they’ll fly
meaningless specks in the sky, reaching a high and falling
falling, falling, down to nature’s cement
the girl smiles as she imagines the front page in her head
“girl missing, last seen at the grand canyon”
“get a search party together, folks, let’s go find this girl, she’s damaged”
they’ll finally give a f-ck about her!
it’d be so easy to just let go, her arm’s starting to hurt
[chorus]
[verse 2]
she walked for hours to simply reach her destination
her dad back at home wouldn’t give a f-ck if she burned her house down or the neighbor’s
he’d be way too buzzed to even see the light
he’d be way too hammered to put up a fight for her
all her life, she’s been controlled, can’t know who to trust
and all they can do is give her meds and pretend to give a f-ck
when in reality, she’s another number, and she knows it!
but she’s the chosen one, who manages the most, and she knows it!
puts up with her teachers (all they want is a paycheck)
manages the bullies (99% of the population)
when will they leave her be? well, the time is now
she takes in a deep breath and lets it on out
and she whispers, as if all alone in her comfort zone
“get ready, trees, soon i’ll return home
back to what i was before i manifested
into this physical soul, visibly messed in the head”
and as her feet inch forward, the centimeters turn to feet
the goal is now an unattainable feat
the abyss stretches to infinity, a boundary that she will never reach
until her time comes, until it’s called
so she puts on her headphones and sits in the moon’s warmth
and lulls herself to sleep, back to that one dream
in which she can leave, make peace, for just a couple weeks
leave this h-ll, which she can’t escape, it’s a drug, she can’t quit
she enjoys the pain, but not because she’s a m-s-ch-st
but because, the matter is that rap is all she needs to understand
that it’s not about how fast you get pushed down, but how fast you bounce back
[chorus]
