If everything is not and no and don't you go, sing out your singular heart all alone and in your basement and in my car outside the store to the clap and my start and to Miss Mary Mack, went to the track to sing it out and loud and proud, when the track goes black don't take it back realize what you're really never gonna reach and more and will never want to be then let it go outside when it snows and bury it deep in the sea or in a creak below the stairs where the "don't you" goes because what you aren't to me might be what I'll never be. Even out in the deep deep dark of a blackedout heartbeat rat-a-tat tapping in a car next to you or me but I'm not here and saying no and don't you go somewhere at this point in time I could apologize, my moats are filled with tacks to stop you in your tracks and just so you own't go back out bring back my pack all dressed in gold and black so we might hold you close at the end of one thing and the beginning of a new thing, a possibly cruel thing and I know you wont say you don't do this to me and leave the closest car seat cold but if you do and everything for me is no and no and don't you go then nothing for you will be to do and go and won't be missed I'll clap to see you go out by the tracks, all dressed in black singing Miss Mark Mack to myself out in the black backseat of my car outloud.

there are pieces of me hidden in the walls that you will never forget but that's not your occupation now chasing down younger stars by the seas if you were a good host you would've at least made toast but you never did find the right combination of pills and tries to be perfect so we all go hungry rust-red shoulders, shark-flesh skin in debtors prison before the week begins you've been dying since the day divorce first came around hollowed out syncopated, broken and unborn I'm radioactive and I'm in love I'm ready to go but we can't go slow has anybody seen the gasman goin' round? this is the day and the glory fuel set to fire fractals in the walls all going down the spaces that we share were my all-time favorite hiding places but you knew them all too well now we're planetary alignments on rusty shocks but you're pluto a voyager away gold-veined limbs smashing clocks into scattered ticking parts priceless gems from eras never passed it's the strangest medicine we've tasted the only one we need is this fantasy I learned nothing about dying this year in science stranger medicine I haven't learned to make

Strange Medicine
I threw my muse out a window so selfishly I couldn't hold her any longer I thought my heart would break she did not fall towards earth no not my star she flew up and returned to her home in the sky my muse now warms my days from afar though she is no longer mine I should've known that no one person can hold onto the sun

I've Lost My Muse
Suddenly me without you is colder than a March pool.

Us (10w)
Share your life and fall away infect the world you left behind while we fall apart moving on away, again to Broadway sound a turn you'll never take although the concert halls have your dollars now. When oh when did we start going down? Our vices, come to overspent life while the world keeps rolling, rolling on without you, without you while our sins keep finding sinners to latch onto once again. When oh when did I start writing in "I live for you" and not "I love you"? It's not a healthy mistake, though it's one I wont stop making. Our slippery slope, held in high esteem like true love even though they aren't the same. Our vices, come to overspent life while the world keeps rolling, rolling on without you, without you while our sins keep finding sinners to latch onto once again. You did just the same didn't see the stars falling to stand next to you. can we really save another person? Or do I think that life's just passing while we're all just standing by waiting for feelings to reboot? I liked it. Our vices, come to overspent life while the world keeps rolling, rolling on without you, without you while our sins keep finding sinners to latch onto once again. Why not float away again, never return the same infect the world you left behind? When you're gone you don't get a single word. We're done with you, We're dont without you and you're done without your mind the ones you left behind. Our vices, come to overspent life while the world keeps rolling, rolling on without you, without you while our sins keep finding sinners to latch onto once again.

If nobody means it it's poison on your tongue right when I want you dead. This ain't the real world your friends aren't two-fold & you couldn't keep away from this. All you only are the words your bias can propel. And tell your crowd I hope they lie in wait & in service to you. Don't betray yourself and tell the truth. If and says it it wouldn't be the same, but here it's you. And everybody at this party you weren't invited to knows that you can't quite be trusted at all. Because you'll catch yourself in lies & smiles you're faking because the poison you are spreading are only touching you Medusa. We won't look you in the eyes. Lies & goodbyes are so in style. It's a poisoned life to be lead & leading you. It's something anyone might do but every time, it's you.

Something Anyone Might Do
It's a wet gray cloudy traveling day These are the days that I fear, these are the days that I live for. Because the fear can't last, the planes don't crash, & the clouds are pure up top. It's a wet gray cloudy traveling day. These are the days that I pray. It's the neatest writing I've ever done, it's the neatest end that we've come from. And the skies keep fissuring. The world keeps turning, skies don't keep on burning, 'cept at the 838 mile-per-hour my mind goes to freeze the sun in my eyes. It blinds. It's a wet gray cloudy traveling day. These are the days that I pray. It's the neatest writing I've ever done, it's the neatest end that we've come from. And the skies keep feeling fractal. These are the days that I pray. When the streetlights don't go out & the skies change gray, I beg. Because weather like this is for change. When rain & sky never have a say everything is here on the ground, I say! It's a wet gray cloudy traveling day. These are the days that I pray. It's the neatest writing I've ever done, it's the neatest end that we've come from. And the skies keep flashing flat. It's the neatest writing I've ever done. It's the neatest end that we've come from. The light stays simple, the lives end late, but the clouds don't have a say. Because they're the days I fear to move & do & be. Be neat. It's a wet gray cloudy traveling day. These are the days that I pray. It's the neatest writing I've ever done, it's the neatest end that we've come from. And the skies keep feeling frail. It's a wet gray cloudy traveling day. These are the days that I pray. It's the neatest writing I've ever done, it's the neatest end that we've come from. But the skies keep turning. But the skies keep turning.

atomic nuclear power plant of life and joy and woe here to the bitter, buried end, bleeding in the snow the smallest parts have the biggest burn the biggest thing we build is made of parts of us, all brighter than the gold it's the little things that keep us jumping on turning faces into pictures twisting cries away from us ascending friction goverened lives i say we are unbroken, that we can't be broken bonded here for life plated wonderous processes, slides that aren't all clear and if you're standing there alone, know that you wont be there for long it's the little things that keep us jumping on it's the little things that keep us jumping on everything starts small and sparkling building things with no charge and no weight inherent add a dose of positive self-negitivity and boom. go out and create chains to fallicate your flaws i never knew you wanted me there too well here i go with it's the little things that keep us jumping on turning faces into pictures twisting cries away from us ascending friction goverened lives i say we are unbroken, that we can't be broken bonded here for life unbroken and unbreakable made all out of stars i am the god particle, about to go nuclear turning faces into pictures twisting cries away from us ascending friction goverened lives i say we are unbroken, that we can't be broken bonded here for life

I wish I had a place. I wish I had my own place to be. and be with and whom i please but I do not and must resign myself to measured hair and measured time with those who ought to stay their leisure I cannot welcome in this place I cannot stay and I fear that this is a prison wall. built to be alone. I see them turn away. I'm wont to walk my yard alone. I'm wont to keep my space. but turn and turn again i find these hoops I know I've lead astray. these verses fabled mine and yours. but the walls I do not know and cannot entrust with the heart of mine. and surely never yours. so turn away I'll take my stride. alone along my yard. because the places I called home. contain me in their lines. now call it house and wait for home I place I want to stay this isn't one I ought've known a place I cannot stay.
