a pill a day keeps the doctor at bay ( Read more... )

a translucent parade
the trail of the dead
i only know the remnants by name
a grave without a tombstone
rest in pieces
ghost hands swimming in the breeze
winding around the path right past my window
pale faces bobbing in the breeze
a lonely smile lingering
sometimes i hear her singing

no matter how many you take you will never know the white light of stability
i will never be warm
order another drink
i'll have a whiskey on the rocks
& another
& another
until my night is blurred black and blue
feel the burn in my throat
but i will stay cold
& no longer long to see the light

i should apologize
you're in over your head & you don't even realize
my smile will be your demise
ain't she sweet?
you can not handle me
you can not handle me
you can not handle me
you are not the only one
you'll see
my apathy puts me at ease
i can not play guitar & i'm a tease
i am not the the one
but you'll never forget me.

fragrantly fragmented after midnight
so long solitude
solemnly inquiring late at night
what it is like ... to be like me
so far I've seen nothing more than you scoffing at what once was
break it off & swallow the dust
settling was never in my nature
we mustn't forget how we got here

socially specifying wrongs
writing off self-imposed maniac doe eyed hoes
maybe I am well off compared to these degenerate stoically morose folk
harmonizing the connection that I'm stoically imposing
well maybe you're whispering you love me
well maybe none of this matters anyway

lately I've been elsewhere
swimming between the tides of here and there
maybe I could land on your shore
maybe you were looking for so much more than a shipwrecked disaster,
the most unnatural
make the most of my moans
faster, faster
the ache of the want
stop me before I'm lost in the idea of trying to make you mine
in the process I'll lose my...

well you claim you know me well ( Read more... )
