American Just a guy trying to progress and figure out all the little things. Mostly re-examining all the little details that couldn't just be passed over. Feels like the oil on the surface that must be scraped off before one can really see what is beneath.
As the devil rises from bed, the wolf leaves his den. I grew from the grave. The country of ghosts and thieves. You trade in. You trade in your soul. Does this eternal fear bring you back home?

Vagrant sketch
The somnambulist son, to whom dreams come no matter dusk or dawn laying in bed awake. Feeling every tear on my shoulder shed. How many have i held? Tears falling into skin. Clavicle (for) acting in retention. Lachrymal in mention. Soporific, i cant see it. Time for the drunks to head home.

Be sure to wave.
She hummed fireworks With our eyes closed What will i find on my hands next Standing on air Illuminated by nothing My eyes shine in the night Moving by a trick of the mind This point wont move Adventure thief

The only life you've ever lead are the reoccurring dreams inside your head. I see you and i know there there is magic, But i haven't felt it in years. I cant feel it here. Too bad. I know its there. I asked you if you kissed him. You said in the parking lot. we laughed. I follow with my eyes I know there is nothing there. Blinking one eye at a time. Maybe we'll end on this.

2 years till bored. The fall holds me in. I tripped over the cord to my guitar. My ears grow cold. Behind blind eyes, bored. I tripped over the door to my bedroom You're the cold hands that keep me stubbing my fingers. You're the cold feet tapping my knees, kick me in bed. Keeping me moving just to stave the chills from running on me, with the smiles from me. We aren't quite sure what they mean. 2 years till the fall holds me in. I tripped over the cord to my guitar. just to stop you're the cold hands, you're the cold feet, you're everything holding me back.

2 Years till
I ride along, I ride alone. No one to know. No where to go. I ride again and I ride tonight alone drifting through the infinite drifting with these bits of rock not cold or hot my friends drift off. No attachment to thee its not really free not trapped but infinitely alone anyone I meet will have no attachment to me

No One to Know
I had dreamt of this last night but i forgot during the day Now the breeze is blowing me back cant seem to keep my eyes open The window as small lets the life in The leaves rattle lets the life in

Whisteria
You laugh in your sleep, I'm oppressed in mine. Drifting leaves will storm the sun. Floating cinders in the sky. Please turn these tapes. Please record this sky, so i can understand this place, and don't lose this time. 'cause i feel twice. Once in the past, and again now.

Some period periodical Trying to eliminate those free radicals. She asked me the color of my eyes I said blue, laughed then walked away. All the hang ups Old room mates Late night calls asking the wrong name Only to hang up at hello Its alright Its never anyone i want to talk to Those people know not to call
