Could never understand
the finest line;
and where on it
your hand could just reach mine
Now my heart's slipped far away
to distant shores 7 it all feels a bit like its too late
Years, to never see it
and months, to not quite find it
these days, its all becoming me
Hours; once shared in harmony

Just Another Reaction
04:21

When this all boils over
washed-up nowhere & standing on two feet
I want to see your action movie;
your letter to me; play it on repeat
Coloured all in orange-and-blue
a distant view all thrown across the shore
A dimming smile, a familiar sound,
an arm around that walks you through the door
This goes above me
maybe someday soon, I'll fall asleep
it's taken far too long, for this unsure
these chemicals don't feel quite like they're the cure
This is only the beginning,
where no one is winning
But I wish you all the best
Waiting for a train to leave
"What's up your sleeve?"
the reaction & all the rest
Contemplating the defenses, through different lenses
Is this just another cut up above me?
What if two wrongs can make a right?
What if paths drift in and out of sight?
I am just another face without a name worth writing home about.
What if the dark is in the light?

Automatic, your way with words is static, at best
It's in the way that you walk;
It's spelled out plain on your chest
Although I've only met you, its no surprise we've come to an odds
I guess I'm all alone in this
you're 'port out & starboard side home'
It seems as if I have stayed just a little too long
and it would be a shame to have stayed, when my perception of interest is gone
Should all the weight of the world come unfurled,
you're so "over it"
Just make sure everyone knows this web of woes is so delicate
Although I've only met you, its no surprise to be two sides of the same coin
I guess you're all alone in this
I'll put on a smile & head home
It seems as if I have stayed just a little too long
and it would be a shame... this malaise; I feel it coming on strong...
and it would be a shame to have stayed, when my perception of interest is gone

The Showman

Caught her thinking about heading North; before everything goes South
Absent-minded she was sucking blood from the corner of her mouth
When I told her how, "getting older is another of those moments..."
Can't see it clearly, even now;
I've never been much of a Showman.

You Are Not
04:32

You are not the one I dream of each night, when I close my eyes
Blue-sky-sprites, the flow of static through the powerlines
I am not supposed to be here, half-drunk and out of time
Not again, this drive is useless
You sigh, I sigh
We are not the same
we were so young
maybe I'm to blame for the brightside
All dressed up for going nowhere;
bent knees and crooked teeth
This party's wearing on me
I swear, I'll be safe. I'll take it easy
You are not supposed to be here
I've been meaning to call for days, but, you know
I'll cry, then you'll cry
Maybe you're to blame, but we were so careful
so thoughtful
wide-eyed and satisfied
so mindful
intime, thistime, itsmy...
it's hard to find the words to say 'goodbye'

True

Not lost or found, she's walking around in just a white T-shirt
Undercover, a dreamer & a lover hiding from the hurt
I just don't believe that its true
What a pity!
It's a memory of a city underwater
A great nation to buzz about creation and the reasons that I fought her
And I don't;
I just don't believe that it's true
We can talk about it;
Find a more reciprocal view?
Between now and never, I don't know I'll believe that it's true
She stole a Lexus & drove it down to Texas when the air turned cold
A conversation of meaningless reservations,
"Dare I be so bold"
Sometimes it happens, dull-do-you-part in lapses, ever growing old
And I don't;
I just don't believe that it's true
We can talk about it;
Find a more reciprocal view?
Above storm-drain-ashtrays;
a million different versions of you
Between now and never, I don't know I'll believe that it's true

Blue
02:55

Brightsiding, forever hiding all the thoughts that you hold near and dear
and somehow always feels like there's one day too few
Everything is everybody's fault. You're rubbing salt into the wound
and still I'm searching for the right words to come through
I hope you know that it was all for you
and maybe next time when you're feeling blue,
you'll think of me or what I'd do, remembering that everything is for you
You'll ask for some where I have none and know its all been done two times before
and sometimes we can't always make the best of this
Shallow 'syncro-nicities' & deep, world-view philosophies ignored
feels a bit more like paralysis
