American Minute minutes made up of me
Everything I've done I've done alone My memories are mine And mine alone

Cold
I slip my sore neck Through the noose to get my feet   Off of the cold ground

I'll be here all week.
Simplify what is. Sell your house and belongings. Become a gypsy.

Conscius Dramatica
Mother was in denial, Pretending that I wasn't going to grow up In a normal world, To be a normal man, To meet normal people, And to make normal friends. To go to normal schools, to not care about homework ...but that was always normal. To have a normal attitude "Things will always work". To make a normal GPA. To not know what to do. To send himself away, the way normal people do. Off to some normal war, to off some innocent men. Off to watch some friends off themselves because of some normal God-awful feelings. Then back to his normal home, to tell his normal self and all his normal friends or whats left of them, that everything's back to normal. To live in a normal world of uncertainty being told it's normal to lack clarity for the rest of a normal life. To live for a normal death, then die fighting the normal fight.

Private Normal
I find myself conveniently deep When the weather is bad Or when I cant sleep. And so I count sheep. So I sit there, in the cold, In the very same chair And I feel myself getting old. Slow, I feel the growth of hair With the same green cup of tea, Self-obsessed, trying to find me. So I give up and go to bed. I sit up when I should be lying down. Sitting there, lying to myself, Prying out reasons why I'm still myself. Denying, trying to convince myself That I haven't given up Pretending that I'm still the same man That I once was, but no luck. I do this until I fall restlessly asleep. Wake up and turn on the t.v and the Weatherman says: "Cold, with a chance of sleet."

A Restless Winter
Wash your pants, dry them too. Silly noise in from the machine? Only to find it tumbling. Pluck it and back in your denim pocket. An infinite abyss of fluctuation. A cesspool of narcissistic hypocrisy. A contradiction. You LOVED the way that pair of size 2's used to fit. I guess happiness is a jeans and T kind of gal... And so I remain in this suit, uncomfortable. But **** Don't I look sharp?

Acculturation, Simply.
Split myself in half To take a good look at myself. And the only thing I found Was half of him missing I asked him, he told me The only thing he found Was half of me missing Sewed us back together And got lost, so I Split myself in half To find A Good Look in myself

Do not live. Flourish. To flawlessly express love, Is to master life.
