it’s just a cord
pull it, turn me off
time to storm
let’s leave the port
fear for short
feel the force
end up, such a lovely morgue
are you bored?
do you mourn?
are you torn?
travel with me?
we’ll go to luxembourg
all before the storm
feel it, it’s lukewarm
are you ready to perform?
what? you’re confused?
i see your firearm
and you’re telling me to disarm?
sorry, i don’t know who you are
anymore
just remember
you swore
and shut the door
i can see the storm
i told you
i was warned

i’ll pick you up
yet we meet instead
smile as i make my way
“you look nice”
thinking back
what a surprise
how i miss that time
i just smile
the look in your eyes
forget the lies
forget the wise
you, the prize
thank you
wish we weren’t past-due
that i still knew you
but i look at the moon
think back, the class
how i walked you to the car
kissed you at the door
i just wish i drove
but you liked alone -
Read more: children
i wish i knew you
when we were kids
how we’d run
the thrill
through the hillswe’d play ball
that was allnow we’re grown
one of us
almost baldour topics
always broad
but they always
revolve around youno longer
just trying to tie a shoe
now our thoughts, words
so complex
they misconstrueit would’ve been nice
if we didn’t need to think twice
or melt like icewe were just kids
without sins
not looking for a his -
Read more: nuclear winter
what a winter
i say with a shiver
you should ask
how’s your liver
occasionally a quiver
as i think about the river
still a sliver
of you here, killer
i’m still rather bitter
especially when i’m at dinner
and i think of you
as i taste my liquor -
Read more: there’s no hate in love
i turn the light off
take my walk
i think about you a lot
it never seems to stop
i’ll be eating
see you in the sauce
turn on the computer
your face appears
when it’s supposed to be microsoft
i can’t get enough
i can’t get a break
i wish i forgot
that we could still talk
that the door was unlocked
but instead i walk
i get lost
you always taunt
i turn up my music
my loud rock
your edm
i can’t ever void my thoughts
you’re always flying across
leaving me rather distraught
i can’t seem to stop
at any cost
it’s not even your fault
i just can’t halt
come to terms with your bolt
get over the cold
figure out the code
sometimes i even get scared that you’ll end up alone -
Read more: monopoly
we yelled fuck the police
carved our names in trees
ran through streets
living piece by piece
listening for a beat
life’s so sweet
sometimes it takes the heat
to win the freeze
seventeen to sleep
a bee to sting
an elite to lose
and a game to complete -
Read more: glance in peru
desirable among others
so you search the rubble
entering my bubble
the despair
came so subtle
left with a rumble
lost in a tunnel
fixing the puzzle
yet what can you do
when they strike at random
expect us to file
let’s go, tandem
but i’m made of a zillion atoms
i won’t let one handsome
crush my mansion
so the day i’m in peru
when i know fate will try
i’ll salute
remembering the root, my mood
i’ll exclude a take two
so i can retain my youth
and myself from you -
Read more: tell me everything
sat on top of you
as i spoke to you
tell me everything
your mind
come to life
time to feel alive
this is no crime
giving you time
flip the dime
i’ll interrogate in rhyme
forever a lime, no lemon
when the clock strikes eleven
i’ll be in heaven
with helen
but there’s no felon
that can take my weapon
not even seven
which, in turn, means i’ll never learn a lesson
pay attention
this is at your discretionoccasionally, i forget
didn’t i ask the question?
