my
heart is really itchy today, this type of dragon can't be slain. this
pining, this waiting, this element is fading, are you awake? are you
okay? i ripped up all my journals, just like a teenage girl would, i
could't trust my memories. do you even remember what the captain said
to the colonel? "yes, yes i have been wincing sir" - you led the birds
right to me. |

planned? 'cause if so, i think we can do better. the winston brigby
boys are gonna get her. i'm impressed you came by, unless the candle
was all you really wanted. |

you
can't take turns with her, but we all took our turn with you. it's a
genuine relapse, a trap. some kids have all the bad luck, born and
raised in self destruct. i'm not too old to be dangerous, pass the
knife i'll scrape off the rust. the deer hum softly: stay wild |
| 3/02/06 |
i was so turned on
|
3:51 |
i'm
so true the abstract is my natural habitat. if you see to beleive, take
a look at these, a handful from azazel, to mc pseudonym - look at him -
completely at war with the score keeper of eternity. i'm taking off,
i'm a spinning top. look at your knees, i was so turned on. i got a
room for that stuff in back. as many walls as ways to attack. |

Awake & Adream
|

it's
even smaller than it seems: the space between awake and adream, the
truth speaks in your sleep. i still believe your lies set you free -
enabled you to be what we came to see, as you burned yourself clean.
but between you and me, the waves kicked up (a tempest), a kraken born
lipless and your refugees all raced to the shorlines, just hoping, one
more time, you'll give us a sign. |

give yourself away, with everything you sing and say, what we all

stain on your hands from exploding stars, open it up, we've all had
enough. |
