The cube of your quirk
swaddles the malleability of each
gap, whistling bones in your mouth
sensing each flicker of the tongue,
where the start of commas halt,
and periods huff their first breath.

When you pause,
the temperature of Chicago's
bittersweet icing shivers once more,
good-bye's of sodden mittens
lacking any human warmth.

Let me tremble again,
an aura a sense of plowed gratitude
that reaches the confinements of
wingless teachings.

If your pupils would embark
to the shameful crumbs of soil,
passageway to mass of mind,
I'd delve deeper to blinded chambers,
the cooing a menacing siren.

sometimes, mama would cut
willow spruces while summer blinked
and with each eyelash it torn,
i swear a piece of her apron
just disappeared, too.

then there were splitting ends
of cut-off stories, words in
snippets, laid in tragedy
with no sunset or
whatever the hell it is

i grimaced at books,
at glossy illustrations

and dawn's the vagrant tear,
evaporated into blisters.

Faces on the ground.
Great Good God on high.
Bring back the peace,
that we used to let fly.

We were... all that we were fighting for.
We were... all that there was to fight for.

Sweet sleep come to me.
And fulfill my needs.
The rain on the ground,
covers the bare leaves.

Is this... really all we are fighting for?
Is this... all really worth fighting for?

In the fields and in the flesh.
We have come here to die.
Pages of the pain,
cloud up my once clear mind.

It is you... that I am fighting for.
It is you... that will break me no more.
This love... is all that we can own.
This love... is all that can be known.

And late one night we'll both be sleeping,
dreaming of our innocence.

Summer nights alone,
breeze blowing through my hair.
Just me and my boat,
and the cool ocean air.

But being alone,
is not always nice.
I'd love to love someone,
before I die.

But I find myself alone,
sailing the sea.
And I am living a life,
were I'm not satisfied,
with the summer breeze.

All I need is you,
we'll sail the ocean blue.
Just you and me,
out on the sea,
there's no where else,
I would rather be.

So I took my boat,
down to find some mermaids.
But had no luck,
my love began to fade.

So I turned around,
cursed myself some more.
Arrived back at the docks,
to find you waiting on the shore.

Now I wasn't alone,
sailing the sea.
And I am living a life,
where I am satisfied,
with the summer breeze.

All I needed was you,
lets sail the ocean blue.
Just you and me,
out on the sea,
there's no where else,
I would rather be,
than with you.

On and off, on and off,
Lights are on,
Now it's dark.

This is the reason for my despair.

On and off, on and off,
Lights are on,
Now it's dark.
    
This is my love affair.

Light's are on,
Everything is great,
You and I,
A pair destined by fate.
Creating memories for us to forever know,
Neither of us wanting,
For this love to go.
It seemed the sun always shined,
You could make me smile anytime.
You knew my ins and outs,
All of my mental routes.

On and off, on and off,
Lights are on,
Now it's dark.

Light's are off,
Everything is covered in dark.
A giant part,
Is missing from my heart.
And as for the memories,
They are being painfully hammered into my head,
Every time I remember, one is nailed in deeper,
Causing me dread.
Can't be removed,
Can't be soothed,
My heart is now grooved.

On and off, on and off,
Lights are on,
Now it's dark,

Light's are on,
Everything is fixed.
Couldn't be happier,
I really missed this.
We decided that this wouldn't happen again,
Let's keep our love safe.
It seemed our thoughts wouldn't bend,
Closer and closer we got.
All my feelings of darkness,
I had forgot.

But then you stopped caring,
If the lights were on.
Claimed you could see in the dark,
You said that I was wrong.
This really is your fault.
But the sad thing is,
I wish it was mine.
So I could say sorry,
And we can flip the light switch on,
For one last time.

On and off, on and off,
Lights are on,
Now it's dark.

This is the reason for my despair.

On and off, on and off,
Lights are on,
Now it's dark.

I need someone that can have my heart repaired.

On and off, on and off,
The light bulb is broken,
Now it's forever dark.

This is my love affair.

Remember when we would lay with each other?
Remember when all I needed was you?
Remember when you broke my heart?
Why am I even asking, of course you do.

Remember when the towers fell?
Remember when Osama died?
Remember when I loved you?
Do you remember all these crimes?

Remember all the smart *** comments?
Remember how your dad teased me?
Remember laughing together?
Remember what we used to be?

Remember all the good times?
Remember when we fell asleep on the chair?
Remember all our stupid fights?
Remember how much you really cared?

Remember when the towers fell?
Remember when Osama died?
Remember when I loved you?
Do you remember all these crimes?

Remember when I remembered,
All the things from our past?
Remember how you pushed me away?
Remember the thing we did last?

We held hands,
In a reassuring squeeze.
And I felt sick,
Right down to my knees.
Yet you gave me that look,
To tell me everything was gonna be alright.
That was a lie though,
I am too blind to have sight.

Remember when I wrote this?
Remember the pain I felt?
No, no you don't,
Because I kept it all to myself.

Remember when WE fell in love?
Remember when YOU lied?
Remember when I loved you?
Do you remember all of OUR crimes?

Remember?
I can't forget.

Imagine a world,
with no Holocaust.
Imagine a world,
where no soul is lost.

Imagine a world,
where nobody cries.
We only need to,
when somebody dies.

Imagine,
imagine,
a new world,
the new world.

Imagine,
imagine,
the strength of,
the worlds love.

Imagine a world,
where all love is strong.
Imagine a world,
where no one does wrong.

Imagine a world,
where nobody lies,
and everyone loves,
each day they're alive.

Imagine,
imagine,
a new world,
the new world.

Imagine,
imagine,
the strength of,
the worlds love.

Imagine a world,
where there is no war.
Imagine that world,
no one serves a tour.

Imagine a world,
where peace rules the streets,
and we learn to love,
everyone we meet.

This can be our world,
only if we try.
We can live in peace,
or we can choose to die.

Imagine,
imagine,
a new world,
the new world.

Imagine,
imagine,
the strength of,
the worlds love.

Imagine,
imagine,
the flight of,
a white dove.

Imagine,
imagine,
the strength of,
the worlds love.

The words slip out of my mouth,
I can't keep them inside.
I can't keep holding this in,
I can no longer hide.

But I can't pick the right words,
I don't know what to say.
I don't know how to tell you,
you save my life everyday.

Something is inside of me,
it's ravaging my soul.
That something is killing me,
it's swallowing me whole.

And I can't pick the right words,
I don't know what to say.
I don't know how to tell you,
you can't save me today.

This disease, inside of me,
will take my life away.
And I still do not,
know how to say,
you take my breath away.

Spending nights together,
under the moonlight.
Sharing laughs together,
everything feels right.

All of the stars reflect,
in your light brown eyes.
They light up and sparkle,
just like fireflies.

And we go together,
like apples do with pie.
And we'll live forever,
I promise I won't let us die.

We can dance, and make love,
in the streets tonight.
We can do, anything,
under city lights.

People will ask us,
why we are so crazy.
Because you have to live, before you die,
or life's a tragedy.

And we go together,
like apples do with pie.
And we'll live forever,
I promise I won't let us die.

You have to live,
before you die,
or life's a tragedy.

I'll love you till,
the day I die,
you are all I need.

Hey you, lets run away,
find a quiet place to stay.
Lie under the morning sun,
and realize that we are one.

Lets turn our hate into love,
make peace with whatever is above.
Spread our love throughout the land,
and we'll do it, hand in hand.

Tell you what I'm going to do,
I'm going to lose myself in you.
Lets show the world what we got,
and lets do it while we're still hot.

Lets do it while we're still young,
sing every song that can be sung.
Lets show the world just what we got,
run forever, till we get caught.

Now I know that you’re still young,
but I know you want to run.
Run until we're old and weak,
but our love will still proceed.

And our love will still go on,
proving we did nothing wrong.
Our love will always be here,
it will never disappear.

So                   you were
          naïve
So much of a wolf was
I
Silently
We lay
                       sharpening our claws
Things began in love                      seen through a filter
Numbed by
                        buzz
                        and tamed by drugs

Of the lingering calmness of a


                                                              ­                 comedown
And the
                       ricochet of our fingers

My sweet dope,
You                        were
Your last pull was

                                                         It's beat.
