You shattered me
and I need to be fixed.

I taped my heart together,
using all the splinters I could find.

But my hands are shaky
and my work is cheap.

Oh what music
Hides behind
Such rosy puckered lips
Such sin in a smile
But the secrets kept
Cannot be seen
While we're both
Wrapped into a failing scene

A gold dipped world
Still decays beneath
With a grotesque air
Of loss and death
As the wars wage through
The bombings ensue
How much hate can they take
With guns to pierce their loved
What a lovely place.

Drag me down
I don't want to be found
Drown me in
You're a beautiful sin
Just like a cigarette
Inhale me into your lungs
And I'll flow through your veins
The addiction will drive you insane.
Don't exhale me out
You're the oxygen I need
I'm far too deep
Without you I'll no longer breathe.

I built a magic time machine
I tinkered through the night
I erected it with art and skill
I knew I had it right!

Off I went on this fun flight
In my bubble made of gloss
I saw the future and the past
Then found that I was lost!

I saw the moments where I'd failed
I'd hurt my loved ones dear!
I saw the future bleak and dark
And viewed it with great fear

I tried to change the things I'd done
And found that I could not!
I practiced on the future, too
Was frozen to the spot!

I found the present compromised
Came back to my square bed
The empty place between my ears
The space inside my head

I learned a precious lesson
All that I can say
Is once you're off in time machines

You're vacant from TODAY!
