Seyi Ezikiboy Noibi - Regular Girl


We Were Regularly On And Off So I Got Used To The Lights Being On Full Blast & Then Suddenly Our Wires Would Cross & Short Circuit The Fuse & All There'd Be Was A Blackout.Then It Got Irregular No More Texts & Calls Blowing Up My Cellular I Tried To Message Her But All I Got Was 'Duck Out' So I'd Act Out Then We'd Repeat The Process.Regular Girl Living In My Regular World Where The Lights Flicker Everytime I’m With Her They Can Spontaneously Combust & Send Our Starry Eyes Shooting Off Like Fireworks Into The Night Or Just Fade & Get Dimmer Fading Into Dust Till There’s No More Light Just A Jammed Off Switch.Back To The Irregular Set Up I Wonder Sometimes Why I Put Myself Through This Uno Choosing To Be Foolish & Stay Where Consistently Isn’t A Game We’re Too Familiar With Playing We’re More Interested In Tank Music That ‘Sex,Almost Love & Pain’ Emphasis On The Almost Cuz I Can Just About Get U To Keep The Lights Glowing But Then When The Going Gets Tough & Crack Starts Showing U Cave Into The Pressure & Retreat Into Ur Cave Ur Lair & As Much As I Try To Illuminate Whats Inside There I’m Stuck In The Darkness Where Irregularities Is All I Can Get To Answer To My Screams For Intimacy.Regular Girl,We’re Back Here Again.On & Off.Hot & Cold.Yes & No.Here & Gone.Boomerang,U Come & Then U Vanish But I Sure As Hell Hope U Come Back.Hoping,Yeah I Guess You Could Say I’m A Glutton For This Type Of Loving.Regular Break Ups & Makes Ups,Not Knowing Whether I’ll Wake Up Next To U Or U’ll Take Up Another Guy So I’ll Just Be Stuck Missing U On Loop Like A Sad Love Song & I’m Broken Hearted Just Tryna Get By.Why Does This Predictable Instability Have To Persist We Could Just Firmly Place Both Hands On The Light Switch & Turn On Instead Of Getting Turned On & Then Turned Off I Don’t Know How Much Longer I Can Handle This Being On Rocky Ground Treating Our Everyday Like Its Fragile A Piece Of China & If Earthquakes Disturb Our Peace & Volcanoes Erupt That Force Us Away From Ground & Into The Sea I Don’t Think It’ll Be Long Before We Drown We’ve Run Out Of Earth To Cover & We’ve Become Our Own Enemies.Friends To Lovers & Then Back Again & Again & Again Its Become Routine So Back & Forth I Think Messages Have Been Telling Us We’re Not Right For Each Other But We Refuse To Listen Till Regular Girl We Finally Become Permanently Irregular.Not Blacked Out But Knocked Out.A Number In Love’s Mortuary....
