Poems
Jul 2010
Outmoded
you stand in the street waiting for your confidence
It's all in your mind, the dankness and the fight
wish you'd have stayed silent and in the right
it broke you apart and you suddenly became a sore sight
All men to their battle stations
we've got ourselves a little situation
despite our most elaborate walls constructed to keep it out
Doubt has found a loop hole and stole what it's all about
I tried to drink the pride of an innocent that died
that night you gave up your independence
And now you're aggravated by anything that shines
Well I can carry you till the end of this gravel road
leading to our humble abode
But you've got to invent a new way to travel
something that your footsteps won't unravel
solid ground seems impossible until your pace is slowed
and sometimes I wish it didn't ever show
We drank the pride of the innocence that prematurely died
with hopes of losing our crooked stride
but with incredible gravity our atmosphere was denied
