Oh, Scarlet's got a boyfriend now She says she thinks she found the one Well I don't what love is all about I'm happy for her anyway Oh they say that "You've missed out" Cause you don't understand the misery Oh they say that "you've gotta find out I'd rather keep it all a mystery My friend don't you worry about me I'm fine I got my head on my shoulders My friend only cares about things like time She say we're only getting older

Don't mind me...
God It's almost one AM And I'm still thinking of you And how your hands touched me Like my body was a land to explore Cliché dreams gone to waste But I still endlessly loved you. God It's almost two AM And I'm still thinking of you And how your lips tasted Like the leftover cheap whiskey Cliché dreams dwindled to dust But I still carelessly loved you. God It's almost three AM And I'm still thinking of you And how your eyes sparkled Like icy oceans meeting deep seas Cliché dreams faded to grey But I still senselessly loved you. God It's almost four AM And I'm still thinking of you And how your voice sounded Like rasp and rough melodies Cliché dreams turned to nothing But I still mindlessly loved you. God It's almost five AM And I'm still thinking of you And how your body smelled Like stale ***** and strawberry wine Cliché disappeared to air But I still hopelessly loved you. God It's not six AM And I'm tired of thinking of you And how you made me feel Like a powerless, punch-drunk fool Cliché dreams I won't hold on to anymore Since I've learned to stop loving you.

Midnight Barrage
Buses are emptied unlike many minds at this time in the trudge to work beneath the canopy of buoyant barrage ballons. Another factory day ***** in the dark figures downcast with bad war news and routine ritual. But there is comfort to be had in the chorus of familiar talk.

On Lowry's 'Going To Work'
Firstly Hand me over to the pouring rain Let me be soaked in that flooring pain Be sure to let me me enjoy my goring gain For I surely believe not in my plastic fame,but Let me enjoy this acidic game I designed , Cos I   know not  the rules of this drastic shame Lastly Let me enjoy my intoxicating Oxytocin that preserves my metamorphosis To an ignominious state that will prevail Through my youthful altercations.
