I won't think about the way we move at night just recognize and understand its only to disguise simple things we can't seem to grasp like to how to love how to not fight how to forget the past We can touch, we can play We don't have to leave the house all day Somethings will never change Repeating myself, as my heart still breaks. I told you this was never what I wanted and you told me love's not for the weak hearted We just abuse this idea labeled "love" and empty concept taken over by a rush of emotion our chemical reactions toxic I had a mind but i just lost it

The Math Lovers Shoe
It's like some monster you turn into It doesn't take a full moon Howling No growing claws or nails It's the growing of an ego The changing of the mind The transformation of attitude towards your life Towards anything, really. It's not a loss of control Not a running rampage It's the loss of friends, and respect for the world at large It's the running from problem Chasing impossibilities You grow old, and you grow out of yourself Into a monster. Into what the world made of you

What do you do at the end of the day, when it's all said and done. Do you walk around with your hands in your pockets? Because that always makes me feel like such an idiot. To think of all the things you could do with these hands and yet you'd rather envelope them in a small hot confined area, and waste whatever they could be doing. To put something so useful where it can't be at any help to you. At the end of the day, when your lovers got parents to hang out with and not tell them about you, where do you go? Do you go shopping with your best friend? Because that seems like a waste of what you just spent a whole week striving towards. To throw hard earned money that could be saved and set aside for greater purposes down the line, on Lacey underwear and perfume. Underwear you buy to wear for your lover who is busy elsewhere not thinking about you. When you've worked and you've maintained adulthood and handled all your business, do you go out drinking? Do you take a shot a beer and a cigarette? I just think to spend time only to not remember any of what you cashed it in for might be a useless way to fill time. In fact it's a perfect example of killing time. And there's no need to be murderous just because you can't find better things to do. When you go home, what else is there?

Where Does This Leave You?
You poke and **** deep on the roots of the way I am wired. You analyze the way I tick and react to every possible emotion. You do not do it for my safety and sanity To know me better It's almost like you do this to know me worse. To see how bad you can really detest every receptor in my head. You only see that you do not like what you see. You do not like the way I understand the world at large Or you have decided I simply just, don't. But I do, and I feel I do so More deeply than you could ever imagine I understand the box you're stuck in Your limits of understanding You think you're complex, I think you're caged in. I think you have boundaries, as do your perceptions I am limitless in that I can no longer deny the cynical or sad, or make it anything other. I embrace the places my head goes You just limit yourself to the same glass structures.

I never want to leave But it's good you have options It's great you're able to choose When I am head locked in this position Of needing you, still sometimes It's still your eyes It's good you have options When I have no choice
