Call It A Day
In a haze
I can hear the wind
Climb the willow
Anything
That I have to do
I’ll delay
Angry thieves
In a tribe of one
Lie in the cold for days
Anything
I have had to do
Am I to blame?
And if we win
We can hang a bell
From the willow
Anything
That I have to do
I’ll obey
What if I am
Would you still go?
In and around
Or above and below
A similar sound
Out of fear you must
Call it a day
Suddenly there
Was he there when it hurt?
A ring and a crown
From the foot of the Earth
Blood in her hair
I can feel the dirt
Call it a day
And if I offend
Would you still go?
An ear to pretend
Like you didn’t know
A thread in her hair
With a still glow
Call it a day
Suddenly there
When the feral elope
The ugly affair
Had a minute of hope
Blood in her hair
As she sings, in lust
Call it a day

Stereotype Therapy
Float up and curl
Both your arms around me
And shiver low
Earlier no,
So then how can this be?
A sigh and a smile
At the sound of no voice
A corner row
Sinning from thoughts
Without words to compete
Tired and tame
On the stairs of some road
We whisper low
Fear to remain
But we’re frightened to leave
Further apart, then closer
A touch
And tangled prose
Exit the moon
And the rain will bleed free
Into the colored night
End of the waking light
A riddle, a chance to find
Four-hundred and twenty-five
They are the chosen kind
We are electrified
The devil can take her time
Four-hundred and twenty-five

Never Is
Hit what you want with those eyes
All that is left of ineptitude
Safely gauge and attempt
For the sake of a sigh
A lasting wish
New to what you’d expect
Whatever’s left of the rest of it
Be as it may it will pass
Better to hurt
Than avoid the risk
Assume, remain rest assured
All is not all without all of it
We confide and ally
Afraid to reveal
The mess we’re in
If he ever was or wasn’t there
The fault of a whim
More were made to turn and stare
So how can they live?
To leave alone the heart of a liar
And trust him again
With all that was but never is...
Here’s what I believe
A pretty little dream
Silence was your best gift
And silence you'll receive
We're only here to leave
Ask and we’ll deceive
You captivate your own kiss
A silly little fiend

Flags
Where can I go?
We are whom we love and loathe
You are where you live
As I seem to forget
Will this ever end?
Will it ever begin? No.
We are where we live
But I, I’m not convinced
I never said I could run
To begin with
I never said I would go
To begin again
I often thought I would know
What to do and when
I often thought I would know
Now is for them
But I’m here and there, so...
Where? And show me when
To hide, and finally give in
I never said I could love
To begin with
I never said I would go
To begin again
I often thought I would know
What to do and when
I often thought I would know

Apparently
How can it be the same as alive?
Can't even find the attitude
We are the way we are in those eyes
Can’t quite explain the solitude
Here and away,
A way to lose
Tempted to free a thought, and I might
Exception to save a partial truth
Reckless to say the least is a lie
That only remains to fuck with you
Here and away,
A way to lose

Jewel
I dreamt the whole world
To find her
And sell her eyes
A tale I once told
Through virtue
That I learned when I died
But I’m right here
To help you
And tell you a lie
Unfair well
That is true
I fell from the sky
For one,
There’s no turn to turn to
I am strange
And unkind
And still,
There’s far worse
To sort through
That I must find
So I’ll land here
To help you
And tell you a lie
An outcome
A symptom
We tend to deny
I dreamt the whole world
A funhouse
For the sake of my mind
A tale I once told
I spit out
Then I burned it alive
Through no fault
A kingdom
Descriptions aside
I don’t count
The quick hit
Or colors that blind
I don’t want to kill them off so soon
Whoever I become it can’t be two
I don’t want to kill them off so soon
I don’t want to spare the world,
Her jewel

Oct. 1st
Isn’t it sweet
How they fall to the ground
Softly to you
All of the leaves
How they fall without sound
Fall all around and encircle you
So hard for some
As they sit, and they hold
Onto what was alive
So hard for some
As they sit, in the cold
And they call out at night
