should vs.could/ my mind isn’t always my friend

”DENNIS THE MENACE” WOKE UP TODAY

and in his mind i could hear him say, ”that mode of travel might give things a jolt, but i probably should consider that it will leave a lot of smoke”

and if i remember lessons of the past, although it’s fun, fast doesn’t last

so i sit on my hands and curl my toes shake my head and twitch my nose

if i wandered down every path i see, wouldn’t be long till the end of me

thrills are like pills that others take, they move you around from place to place

where you end up is anyone’s guess, and you always are left with a heck of a mess

we are always at our own set of scales

trying to determine what to keep and what to sell

and we weight the consequences if we are smart

and determine how much blood it’s going to cost

how much blood is it going to cost
