Forget This

Straining your neck to get a second look At distant locks Shaking "I tried" Turning door knobs inside out Anxious patterns spinning ties Sweating for warmth Stepping into socks, enclosed travels You're too cold to exist Grabbing anything you can grab in sight Twisting your mind To escape living ecstasy Dreams of you and me The moon falls upward The sky falls below while the cars fly Like a limousine to me You used to be considered fancy Six feet under, in my mind Forgotten parts of cringing discoveries Lost and found inside miscellaneous medicines Remodeling harsh eyes Confused expressions set on autopilot Degrading, regenerating Organs and miles of dusted feet Lost between them that are you Emotions trample your face Tracking slush in the cracks of your flaws Where is the army fleeing? Desire to feel them burn Spines form to given foam But as you lose yourself they trade for former homes Laying themselves down, unaligned In different storylines Dictionaries have answers to everything known Owning all meanings, meaning nothing at all Labeling individuals and all things From avalanches to eruption of mankind Fix my eyes on you Scribble languages on napkins To bring education from there to near Forget this just to remember.
