Deja Vu/ Too lazy to put on the accent marks

Deja vu

Deja Vu

The time is in line with deja vu

Dreaming it again with deja vu

Gonna live like this

Gonna die like this

Let it alllll unfurlll with deja vu

I know I’ve peed this way before

Right here in this bathroom with these pants and shirt and stance looking right through this window at the outside world behind tilted lenses yellow and white it’s deja vu

I know all these ghosts that surround me

Archetypes on archetypes

All old friends I used to know

That I’ll know soon too

And it’s all happening again

This is the way it is

The way it spirals through space and time

Doors open and doors close

Appear in front of me with every object and subjects too

I like to crack them open a smidge and see what’s on the other side

Sometimes the right ones open

And the Grateful Dead are on the other side waiting for me in the future the Gorillaz too

There are some that glow bright with scalding heat

That I’m too afraid to touch

Is my fear itself a door?

There are doors I know I should open, but I don’t

Just don’t!

And I don’t know why

I haven’t even tried…

When coincidence fades

Is it all meant to be?

Are these socks I’m wearing meant to be?

Hindsight is 20/20

Is it all hindsight?

Is it all deja vu?
