Just as soon as the emotion comes in The emotion has vanished from my ten fingers Those god awful tweakers have failed me again Like a mouse on speed, I’m running into the streets
As I revel across the kitchen floor Socks drenched in dirt and adolescence I find that the only true time I’m happy Is staring at the screen in my mind Watching life whisper in my ears
Veins pop out like a loud mouth I dream of two dozen men Walking a tightrope toward me And I only find that none of them Have made it, they only fell Down to another who loves them so And just like that, I’m walking it too
