lyrics
{Lyrics ~2002-2012}
: The past was the past, a cycle of plays
that left me unstable, held tight to all ways.
By day I spent my money, by night I had to write
about the stupid light that I thought you danced inside.
So, out of ideas and into the hope
that I can upstage your wrath, your printed soul
prefixed into a habit (keeps forming), alarming things happen.
Chapters end but run out of ways to stay clever...
{My tether, my wage, my source of existential rage:
The thing that I crave, without it I am not the same,
I need it...
My addiction saves.}
::~~~~::
> To the half-dead gods of reckoning disorders:
Secrets, knowledge, guilt about reckless encounters.
Flung a shoe at the wall and displaced further doubt
of speculations unsaid and better left that way. <
:: Chopped off handsome plate,
crowned the king of unrequited lust.
Hop, skip, jump toward baggage further reflected on.
And though what you say may be golden
I cannot hear you anyway.
And though what you say may be golden
I cannot hear you anyway...
{My tether, my wage, my source of existential rage:
The thing that I crave, without it I am not the same,
I need it...
My addiction saves.}
::~~~~::
>> So true to the deceptive and the hopeless cons.
Toward guided counseling and out of your stare,
for this function of glare
to be inside of you. <<
::: The same hue for eyes to go blind to,
And the tune to not run to
is golden?
