She said i'm new in town
can you show me around?
I like the finer things
my puppets on strings.
i'd love to get messy
with such an amazing
specimen but just looking
at you can see where
it goes...
Although you got me
thinking with my stones
I prefer more substance I need
meat on the bone-
best for you to move down
the road...but I'm all alone

Well you look sweet enough
A good ol' country girl
Hop on in let's
*give it a whirl

feeling your pull like a tractor beam
beaming you up a little piece of me*

can't give you my all;
transmission incomplete,
initially

i'll ship overnight red be there by 10
just make sure your home to let me in

kiss my face i'll string your parse
scream my name and kick my ****

drive me to the edge
exceeding light speed
slip off your belt for a tourniquet
gotta slow this bleed

let's try to take it easy this time
and see how it goes

if it works with just a little
then maybe we
make it whole

something between
you and i
does not divide
but won't combine

you are a secret
between my soul
and the mask i wear
is taking it's toll

this thing between
you and i
kept a secret
will never die

so many words
never enough action
almost closed the deal
then lost all traction

never saw the bottom
before it dropped out
navigation failed
north became south

so i dug in deep
the ultimate reward
felt the tips of your wings
and watched you soar

beautiful broken
perfect scarred
they are all out there
don't look too hard

they spread their wings
to welcome you in
don't try to resist
you won't win

they are powerful allies
loyal without fail
they will defend ferociously
with tooth and nail

when you find one
pretty quickly you will know
you can't hold on too tight
eventually you must let go

i woke up one day
and she was gone
i guess the burden was too much
she couldn't keep dragging me along

she made me unstoppable
pushing through boundaries
but her ultimate gift was fully realized
when i learned the strength
came from within me

i get caught up watching
all your little routines
make the bed
fix the pillows
relentless
pristine
everyone self-medicates
for me it is you
as I scraped my pegs
the sparks flew
drop into third
back up to speed
you give me nothing
but it's all i need

you never lost faith
bend never break
locate the center
you are my mentor

encouraged me
be true to self
pursue for passion
not material wealth

forced me to stare
become the reflection
take what is yours
create perfection

reeled me in
for your greatest lesson
what appears to be
always in question

mind never broken
body always sore
whisper goodbye
my sweet mentor

happens to the best of us
some things just slip away
before we know what's happening
it's already too late

the harder we try
never works out as planned
better to just roll the dice
see where they land
