How about if I ride off into the sunset,
With my eyes closed.
Never have to remember leaving,
Never forget how nice it was.

We're all just a figure in space, a mould once made of clay.
But until we see the day, our thoughts just fade away.
No one really cares, so why should they obey?
Their actions are just like mine, it's their eyes what will betray.
Your footfall I hear behind me, or maybe I will someday.
I will keep walking astray, but not to your dismay.

Debating for indifference**
Only for the world to see,
The bats they know best,
All the details in the world.
Seep in all the light,
Shine with all your might.
Publish all your thoughts,
Copyright your words.
The population knows your name,
As you're debating for indifference.

I'll shut everything off
Because I don't want to think
About you anymore,
And it just so happens
That everywhere I look
I am reminded of
The things you do,
Then I realize,
I probably won't forget
Any day soon.

As you spend your days
Waiting for night,
Life passes you by,
or so they say.
But they don't stay around
To watch the stars,
To see the moon.
They don't really know
That it's always darkest
Before dawn.
They won't ever know
The absolute silence
Of the dead of night
Because they're too busy,
Rushing around,
Being frantic,
Waiting for it to be day,
As they sleep through
The real peace in the world,
They'll never know
What it's like to listen
To absolutely nothing.

Dates are irrelevant,
For now.
One day they will matter.
When someone forgets
Your birthday.
But that's only because
You pay too much attention.
If you hadn't known the date,
You never would have noticed,
Never would be stressing
That you're getting older,
That you've lost your youth,
Because you'd still be living it,
Not knowing who's birthday
You've forgotten,
And not having them remind you.

fly
till you defy gravity
break all the rules
of authority
live by your own
directions
though a map may
come in handy
to mark where
you've already been.
follow the road
ahead of you
remember the one
behind you
what has been
has been.
what is, is.
what will be
we do not know
