Television remote in hand, sweating motel made of sand
Past wives and dollar signs were once the starfish speak now, who owns this man
Mind control of the demons he held closely only to redeem them
They return now to drain the blood and burn the coal of a lonely dreamer

Return the favor
Greet your neighbor
And tell him softly
How you never knew the damage would end up being so **** costly
She appears now from the curtain
Bear my beast of burden
Seeking redemption under the illusion that he’s just a hurt person, snuggle

Master of illusion
Wake from slumber as he chooses
Radiant thoughts, alcohol induced in tangent solutions, breathing becomes useless
Pulls himself from the comfort, indecent love
He’s seen too much hurt
As the blade from the kitchen is stained red though his plain white T-shirt

Happiness is sirens
She’s in shock from loss of iron
Anger follows questioning
And self reliance is just a time when
All that we can see
Is all our lives will be
Concern for where the wind blows just holds you back
From being free

Telecast and I wear my mask
I want to go but I haven’t touched shore
Emulate everyone knows
I come back more and more

Under fire the rain seems soft
Coming home I never get lost
Pixie dust ice cream truck
Paperback heart

Free will I sit still
The blessings count me so I get my fill
And I wake up in the sun dried mud
Talking to my hand

White curtain blue collar work
Stitch up my spine so my smile still smirks    
I got four kings in a jar of dirt
Waiting for a train

I’m unsure if she’s right but I’m right that I’m sure I don’t know
And if the truth truly hurts then I don’t want the truth to show
I’m trapped in this bliss from the gaze that emits from the floor
When she opens the path with her light, I want to be sure

When she lie
When she lies

She tells me I’m one with manipulation of words
She kiss me goodnight, hitting me right where it hurts
I don’t know the why but the window and sky made me think
I looked at the moon and right there decided to leave

When she lie
When she lies

Lurking hermit, corridor snake
Predator owl, behavior lake
Social depiction deficiency
“Living at sea”
When all that matters is you
                                           And me

Innocent world please watch me sit
Politely while you crack your whip, again.
Teddy says he likes your boots,
I told him that were born to lose, again
I giggle and smirk while you strike past
Teddy says he likes my laugh, again
Innocent world please love me tight
In your monstrous arms I feel alright, again.

He see’s in color
He see’s in black
The season’s summer
The leaves are back

Innocent world please tuck me in
Relive from me my deadly sins, again
Heaven will wait for teddy too
I love him to death but that’s nothing new, again
Check the closet, don’t close the door
Please pick my night light off the floor, again
And in the morning when we wake
The shimmering sun across the lake, again
Oh innocent world please learn with me
Of past and present for eternity, again.

As desperate as the king might be
I want your subtle cry
The rain only gestures for
The sun and moon to collide
The changes in December tolls
To carry the souls to hell
Your touch alone can save the man
Who lies, but never tells
A child all tattooed at birth
Remains a broken sigh
Redeemed yells at Tuesday’s voice
A child, who lost her mind.

She calls my eyes mysterious
My therapist calls them depressed
I say she’s schizophrenic
See says she’s underdressed
They ask us how we met
She left it for me to address
“From one lunatic to the other-“
“In your mind?”
-“Be my guest.”
