Living in Comfortable
This is how it feels
to live in comfortable
where we can complain
and have anything
I have a job
two free days of my life
and I'm comfortable
arguing politics
we're allowed to argue
and eat anything
to keep comfortable
who's going to give up there things
to do any real changing not you, and not I
because this is how it feels to pretend to believe in anything
would you like to do, I'd like to talk about what we can do
and here I can talk about me
and all the things that I don't like that you do
and here I can talk about we
and pretend to the people around
that I'm someone others should know and be
working 5 days a week
keeping comfortable
This is how it feels to live in comfortable
where we can complain and have anything
I can have anything
I have a job
And I'm comfortable
yes I'm comfortable
This is how it feels
Always Distance the Lonely
Here's s a beautiful day
where we sleep underground
dreaming underneath warm grey skies
she swims past
our past
and we wake
we wake
to find a beautiful day
today
for the rain, wind, and sky's
sun to explode
and lift eyes
no time
always to peak
we wake
and lift eyes
swim on glowing necks
streaked with lakes
as warm as the devil
will keep his eggs
and distance the lonely
where we can be lonely
Always distance the lonely
just let us be lonely
and listen to space
as hard as the devil
will keep her legs
and we can be lonely
always distance the lonely
It's a beautiful day
tangled in hair
where we sleep
Anything for Free
I'm free
with other ideas of being free
Just me and me
Collecting Opinions and beliefs to share with Nobody
Is this feeling true
let's do whatever we want to
and whatever we want, we can do
while alone and free
I must of done someone good
to discover an open ended word
and it's good
to find a perfect open ended word
that makes me feel
I can do something for free
and I'm free
dreaming, leaving, loving
anything
for free
I must of done someone good
to discover an open ended word
and I must of let someone go
to find myself all alone
But now I'm free
Just me and me
yes I'm free
To share with nobody
Living free
A freedom to move
and there's laws against
what we used to do
Operator and Machine
It is a machine thats the way it works
It is a machine let us talk about it
we can disagree until we speak the same things
It is a machine and that's the way it works
Can't you see this is a machine
it might take a little patience
don't you see I operate this machine
there are many useful functions
many of which I am still learning
some parts tend to make a fuss
some parts move just enough
to give me what I want
and I want meaning
Believe
Mr. where red sinks deep
I see you following
I did nothing but believe
I believe our story
where fallen angels weep
is that you watching
Mr. where uglie thoughts keep
why must you stare with such hunger
I did nothing but believe
I believe your story
Is that you in me
lost again in our story
I dream, you speak, I sleep. we sleep
this is our story
is this me
who are you
following
The Sport of Hunting
Under covers
come and take us into dream
it's much easier to ignore all the ugly
please don't keep us waiting
just take us into dreams
above buildings
where stars burn then and then
we're all part of the same thing
I hear you sobbing
Oh rivers
wash away time
microwave foods in vacuums
In the dark I can see and hear everything
Oh rivers
eating her beaches
drilling holes in windows
elephant trunks blackened in birds feathers
tigers weeping crocodile tears
tigers weeping birds feathers
elephant trucks blanketed in crocodile tears
Take me into dreams
and fill one another with someone other than ourselves
Under Palms
Bright bright scar, the beauty you ware
pressing hands threw splinters in skin
You're imperfections are perfect
Was it in youth when they mistreated you?
Semen tastes just as ugly and we want more, please lend me more
Remember the caged dead dogs in the creek, sister you ran away
their coat pushed past the wire entangled lovers
Wide gaping holes, dialated broken skin
a drowning forest curved the lines around teeth
Here lay the beauty in everything
She told me of the junkie draining money from her flower to keep warm
I talked of friendship and love and excrement
Loving daughters and sons, well we are all one
so take my hand and please remember how to smile
A perfect imperfection imagination
Nature hikes, these trees have seen all things
when we can't hear a sound
peace and quiet here on my side
Are you a good man or did you do this for the money
All I know is we fill our stomachs every day
This old woman said something to my mother, I know she watches over
it's ice cold, I lay next to her working to dream. I had no right choking that thing
Under palms we lay awake those dead dogs speak
"Master streaks in time fight where we are breed only to listen, perfecting actions."
You We and I
This is where we get lost in the I, the eye of ourselves You we and is it due to such a sunny day? Flowers and beaches rest a smile on the face selfish This is all about you. Lost in empty rooms Is it due to such a dreary day? We you and I the soils rain Hello to you a new day, I am everything We you and I are slipping fast into the now!
That's the Way it Goes
Da da da da daa
Da da da da daa
and that's the way it goes
swans songs
in damaged lungs
swim with old friends
I'm counting to trade
for all the new ones
Slow reader listen wait
why can't we please hold on
I'd like to find out
about lady luck
I noticed your little
girls are doves
it's no big thing
we all have to grow up
monkeys and barrels
I hear she screams
the insects sing
I'm lonely
and that's the way it goes
