Been a while
Been a while
I brushed against confusing
still spinning to the music
I lost something
But I don't know what
I'm looking around
The world doesn't revolve around me
It looks like it's falling down
But I hide my frown
I smile today
It doesn't matter what yesterday said
Anger made a play on me
Now I knocked it off the tree
These limbs are strong
But I still won't step out to far
A giant leap for me
A twitch for all of mankind
I searched for you
What did I find?
A desperate housewife
You broke my spine
I spin my wheels to therapy
What will tomorrow bring
Watch me roll
Watch me sing
The outsiders are gathering
Where are you?
Blue
Through
Too Untrue
Virtue Knew
I knew it too
I'm no Saint
I'm not ordained
I don't speak scripture
Just pictures of your brain
This is your activity.
This is someone else
I've got to do what's right for me
I'm setting myself free
I know the things that don't get taught
Noboby knows what I mean.
But I'm not compelled to scream
I lean to the right
I swing to the left
I feel cigarettes taking a toll in my chest
I'm not the best, but I'm getting better
I don't know you
But here is a letter
To whom it may concern
This is my poetic requiem
Silence me to the masquerade
My reflection fades
My pupils constrict to see what you see
I blend into the crowd
I stand upright, as always
I'm proud, not so loud
Patience draws me away
I love you

Love of mine, someday you will die
But I'll be close behind I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light, or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight, waiting for the hint of a spark
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
