by the new day i hope the clouds come out and around not above my head but i've been patient like if somethings there it will move me where i need to be
do you believe in truth beyond comic relief
if life is faked, my artificial heart is in pain
on a play date a mother-child embrace builds a smaller world within this space i capture fractions of memory like this and watch them sum to something more than me
do you believe in love beyond biology
do people change or are we changed impassively
if love is faked my artificial heart will have to
good things come to those who wait my someone has told me
good things come to those who wait my someone is not me, i am free

penny in the well
will you turn my life around
we were happy, healthy, living for the gold
that's how the story goes
single file line
i don't trust em, keep my eye on em
i can't have no friends to call my own
so to my companions:
look before you jive
might seem a little trite
when eyeing me up
like i'm out of luck
but who will run the family
courtier of mine
i got love for you no lie
sometimes the better half of me gets overthrown
don't take it personal
single file line
count em: one two three and five
out the corner of my eye i spot the fourth
i really oughta go
but if i turn around
would you think twice
i know you're up in arms and
i'm incredibly fucked
guess that time has come
but who will run the family
penny in the well
all moved out of wallet hell
hope you're better off now living for your own

he said he's unlike any other man
his right arm extends
trees cry shit dies
i never wonder why
fuck that i don't need to give him mine
i tried so hard to see him as a friend
i'm foolish for it
i've seen him talking out the gut
before and one is more than enough
"first you gotta be tall
show your brawn
show em all that you've got
you're too smart
for your own good
where's your brawn
be the man that you want"
that hungry urge to not belong
it's something on the tongue's tip
he held it out
the sword of cowards
that oozes doubt
no common ground unto rely
if you ask me he's one of us
if you believe i'm not alone

birds start singing
i don't know what about
could be blues about the weather
no doubt thats got them fucked up
high on feeling
call my doctor
~dial tone~
just deserts for wanting to be left alone
some things happen
some truism hits you slow
sayonara alma mater
i get my degree i'm gone
till i want to come back home till i need to
take a break from living
its time to sit and wait a minute
the road you're walking
has long been followed
get off it

human take me back to land
hollywoods calling
i'm no alien i'm friend
i wanna be famous loud
don't care what they talk about
as long as they're talking
i've been back and forth again
i think i might stay a while
next time that i go away i'll leave you no answer returned
back to land
down to earth
you wonder why you want it
be honest you forgot it
i'm too good to go away

one is the way i wait for you
two are things that i wouldn't do
three and four, we both want more
under the weight of missing you
i can only tell the truth
i might be sipping juice
i am and i feel good
baby's comin home
and i want all my friends to know
i found something good
i said i'm good
baby's comin home
it's just one more night of "i'm alone"
and "am i loved?"
there go my guts
baby's on the line
i come to crusty-eyed must be morning
telling me i'm alright
telling me one more night

what is black yet unopaque
what is naked
horse led to water drinks
when he is convinced
all i see
lookin at me
truth beyond relief
get old and see
its nbd
its just its happening
now its done i take a break
i don't get broken
next time he wont be so snake-like
he might be rodent
all i see
lookin at me
truth beyond relief
to know is a tease
repeating sneeze
unnerving little bees
to be wholly free
to go unseen
unburdened by the week
its all i see
its lookin at me
he's lookin right at me

hangman
you don't have to make that statement
i wonder where the two of us will meet
time makes me seem late
and i can't sleep till i know where we stand
okay you've got the game-plan
hangman
you don't have to make that statement
i wonder where the two of us will meet
time makes me so lazy
and i'm the sheep but if shit hits the fan
i'll head west for the weekend
i won't rest for the weekend
but if you give me one more chance
i'll be the one to love you oh so selflessly
i want my way
we live that way
it was that way

ONLY FRIEND

coming back down
never had it quite like me and you
riffing for days on end
now you're my only friend
i can forgive that
shake it off to a catchy tune
we let it play four times thru
we noticed the third time thru
one and one half a piece
threading my arm thru your sleeve
what could come in between?
theres no room
you wanna give back
you wrote songs that i thought i knew
assigned me a different past
and i accept yours as fact
fog the glass and draw square
fit myself in
feel around i'm eighteen years
in love again
looking up at a shrinking square
are you still in there?
