It’s out of my reach There are always vultures hovering pensively above for any remains And your sad blue eyes have seen a million disappointments From Sea To Sea And I don’t think an “It’ll be okay” Will stop them from sinking And the ****** addicts, and the prostitutes, and all those corporate men Will live on blithely While you slowly wither Whatever they say Love is never enough It is a merely a puppet show Colorful and loud With a Shakespearean script During its duration It’s master drinks a fifth Until his cheeks are rosy and his eyes are bullets Until he stumbles onto the stage he built piece by piece Filled with liquored-up animosity He’ll rip his wooden companions apart Wood rigid like claws Protruding with unabashed vehemence Paint seeping like a thousand comets gone awry The audience erupts with laughter Destruction being The only logical way Hearts are suppose to end up I’ll pull you in until my veins scream with purple agony But you’ll simply unhook my line and smile Your face will dismiss me with false reassurance You just crack open a beer And the storm continues it’s unwavering journey You look down at your bottle and your blue eyes fall into it You’ll take a sip and glance up And the sky is nothing but pestilence Face solemn and unmoved Eyes filled with white You crack open another

I Would Drain all of the Oceans in the World to Find You.
It’s out of my reach There are always vultures hovering pensively above for any remains And your sad blue eyes have seen a million disappointments From Sea To Sea And I don’t think an “It’ll be okay” Will stop them from sinking And the ****** addicts, and the prostitutes, and all those corporate men Will live on blithely While you slowly wither Whatever they say Love is never enough It is a merely a puppet show Colorful and loud With a Shakespearean script During its duration It’s master drinks a fifth Until his cheeks are rosy and his eyes are bullets Until he stumbles onto the stage he built piece by piece Filled with liquored-up animosity He’ll rip his wooden companions apart Wood rigid like claws Protruding with unabashed vehemence Paint seeping like a thousand comets gone awry The audience erupts with laughter Destruction being The only logical way Hearts are suppose to end up I’ll pull you in until my veins scream with purple agony But you’ll simply unhook my line and smile Your face will dismiss me with false reassurance You just crack open a beer And the storm continues it’s unwavering journey You look down at your bottle and your blue eyes fall into it You’ll take a sip and glance up And the sky is nothing but pestilence Face solemn and unmoved Eyes filled with white You crack open another
