.AVI

ITS A SMALL MISTAKE
THAT ADDS UP OVER TIME.
SMALL STICKS BUILT UP
TO STOP THE DAM FROM BREAKING.
THERE'S ALWAYS
GOING TO BE LEAKS.
YOU SAW IT COMING
FROM A MILE AWAY.
YOU WERE CURIOUS
TO SEE HOW LONG IT COULD
HOLD UP OVER TIME.
WELL YOU SURE
PUT UP A FIGHT OL GIRL.
YOU SURE HELD
YOUR HEAD UP HIGH
AND GAVE US A GOOD
THRASHING.
ITS THAT DEEP WOUND.
ITS LIKE YOU SEARCHED FOR
IT SLOWLY.
YOU MOVED SKIN ASIDE.
BLUE AND RED VEINS.
PINCHED RUBBED PLOTTED.
YOU CUT THE WRONG WIRE BABY.
AND YOU BLASTED THIS
FUCKING THING INTO
A BILLION LITTLE BITS
THAT STICK AND
CRACK OUR LENSES.
THINGS ARE TOO EXPENSIVE
THESE DAYS FOR THERE
TO BE ANOTHER DENT
IN OUR ARMOR.
HOW WILL WE
EVER PERFORM WHEN
WE HIT THE BIG TIME?
LETS KEEP SLICING
OURSELVES TO BITS
AND RAISE OUR GLASSES HIGH.
BECAUSE THIS TOAST
BRINGS THE CROWD TO THEIR KNEES.
