Cut you out
then I need you
the sky is so dirty
looks like it’s flirting
tried so hard
to get rid of you
but know you’re back:
don’t know what to do
I know I’m weak
I’ve got no heart
and It’s no good
is this a curse?
let’s try this out
just one more time
just one more time baby
just one more time
I’m going blind
losing my mind
come on be mine
show me your sign
you can be yours
I can be mine
I doesn’t matter how much we fight
I’m gonna make it,
make it so right
I’m gonna kill you
I’m gonna die
gonna make it right
just one more time

You drive me crazy
blue eyed lady
can’t answer all you questions
but I sure can try
listen to my confession
and say goodbye
I want to take you
way deep inside
I want you to see me all the way
without the lies
I want you to love me
no matter what I’ve been
Come on, please don’t judge me
I’ll tell you all my sins
I want to be your baby
just for a while
but I’m afraid to give you everything
cause it might let you down
I can be real bad girl
you better believe it
but when you tell me it’s not true
I feel I can leave it all behind
I’ve done a lot of bad things
you’ll soon find out
but I just want to be child again
and you can help me out

Messing around

Polyamory is the new thing:
he wants to swing
she wants to swing
get rid of your wedding ring
monogamy stinks
chain links
She don’t want a home or a family
don’t want to sell her soul to productivity
we’re an autopilot society
crashing into eternity
blowing up and burning down
introspection in all directions
messing around
we’re just messing around
We’re not running on the same schedule
I’m standing still, running backwards
the new failure is being successful
kind of like the Roman Empire
pulling in and putting out
domination and submission
turn it around
it’s all inside out

Wake up mama

I had a dream last night
now I don’t know what’s going on
I’m out here rowing towards the shore
but there’s nothing in sight
I push my oar through the clouds
look at the water above me
and when I close my eyes
I’m at the bottom of the sea
Wake up mama
turn your lamp down low
pull me out of bed now
I’m ready to go
but there’s fog out on the rocks
and the ghost ship is in shock
Wake up mama
We’ve got to make it to the docks
When you’ve lost your hidden treasure
there’s no pleasure in the coastline
I used to know right where we were
but now I’ve got my eye on the other side
wake up mama
smell that coffee and bread
I can’t seem to get myself out of this waterbed

Virtual paper

Open up a new page
save that one for later
my mind keeps jumping from A to Z
and hey, what’s that over there?
No time for us to be
What’s beyond the screen now?
can we make it out of here?
labyrinth that speaks to me
mirror of my basest needs
blown away by quick desires
never satisfied
People getting fucked
right under my nose
like all the other things I see
done by amateurs
No more time for us to see
What’s beyond the screen now?
can we make it out of here?
labyrinth that speaks to me
mirror of my basest needs
infinite digression
near obsession
lobotomy
I want to see it all again
like it was before the flood
I want to feel frustrated
because I have to wait for it
I want to build my images
with the building blocks inside my heart
Save it all for later
Notes on virtual paper
Layer after layer
No more time for us to be
