    talking to him

    succumbed to death upon my arrival
    here i go shunned through the revolving
    this is the way i go, no problem solving
    no evolving
    i said hello
    him, he said, let it go
    dead
    i know, i know, it was left unsaid
    do you want to get ahead
    blood, like venetian red
    i said, take me before i go
    can you close a revolving door
    can you adore a whore
    can you explore through a trapdoor
    can you stop a third world war
    no, but i still twirled through
    the spiritual world
    i entered
    a brand new world

    dinner with an empty soul

    “what are you looking at”
    i laugh
    “nothing, just your face”
    i watched the sadness consume your soul
    the gloom, shut the door
    sat in the control room
    no common room
    just find me in the dinning room
    all alone
    wearing my favorite cologne
    in my zone
    you postpone
    should have known

    a second beginning

    you walked to the car
    and i opened the door
    is that when i was chosen
    ‘cause your eyes
    they looked frozen
    i was broken
    but i wanted a moment
    no longer a lost soul
    in this ocean
    i wanted to be open
    find something new
    and be interwoven
    feel an explosion
    leave an erosion
    you walked closer
    laughed
    i didn’t want to crash
    so i held on to my raft
    don’t want to move too fast
    i want something to last
    no longer feel slashed
    so here we go
    i’ll start a new draft

    outside my car

    it was subconscious
    the goodbye
    that’s why i squeezed tight twice
    i knew you were going
    you were growing
    omitting me
    committing against we
    wish i would have sensed when it commenced
    ‘cause now i’m fenced
    feeling crisscrossed
    i just want to defrost
    ’cause this feeling
    of being lost, tossed and smothered in frost
    frozen glass
    flip me like an hourglass
    i’m ready at last
    no looking at the past
    take me
    fast

    twenty eight

    28
    i don’t mean to hate
    but don’t you think it’s a little late
    to figure out what you want
    in this game where we’re supposed to create
    but all you do is alienate
    hold a weight
    it’s over your head
    it’s all unsaid, but honey
    i don’t want you to dread
    end up dead
    ‘cause i see the way you tread
    i just want you ahead
    but instead you embed
    all these emotions in your head
    it’s like a thread
    you’re hanging
    and you don’t know which way to go
    just flip a switch
    your life will enrich
    figure out what you want
    it’ll no longer taunt
    and you’ll no longer haunt
    and maybe that’s mean
    but we’re not sixteen
    you need to believe
    i know you’re not naive
    i just want you to achieve
    and maybe i preconceive all these notions
    but it’s just a motion
    and i have this devotion
    i feel like i’m floating in the ocean
    lost at sea
    don’t you agree
    i know i’ve asked you before
    what you wanted to be
    and you had no clue
    all i want is you to come through
    bring to
    debut
    a new you
    ’cause i love you
    more than you’ll ever know

    so wise i’ll leave you cross-eyed

    wild child with a way of surprise
    look me in the eyes
    i’m wild, i’m wise
    i’ve seen all kinds of skies
    i know the lies
    i’ve had spies
    worn the disguise
    had a demise
    but look at me
    i rise
    i hear the cries
    and i’ve had highs
    rolled snake eyes
    didn’t comprimise
    ‘cause i know everything dies
    and there’s no good guys
    you can’t decriminialize
    i’ll leave you cross-eyed
    i’m the prize
    no matter how many times you try
    i’m just a wild child that you despise
    with a way of surprise
    that makes you want to die
    where’s my nobel prize

    a phone call

    overbearing, didn’t use it quite so right
    but i knew what you meant
    love wasn’t quite so spent
    but that was your two cents
    selfish, used that right
    but i refused and excused
    yet i shouldn’t have
    guess i was confused
    yet you sat there amused
    in my torture
    turning into such a scorcher
    listening to your order
    why couldn’t i take notice
    jump the border
    sat so hopeless
    so broken
    going through the motion
    got your gun loaded
    i stood frozen
    at my lowest
    out of focus
    struck your hocus pocus
    and i believed all
    felt deceived
    ‘cause i knew you perceived
    this as what i had
    but potentially saw bad
    yet sequentially
    ignored common law
    and went mad

    turn of evil

    i don’t want to be nice
    give advice
    suffice anymore
    i want it all
    feel it all, nonchalant
    taunt a soul
    create a hole
    feel whole
    no longer console
    be a troll
    and control
    everyone i take in
    break them in
    make them mistake
    be a snake
    feel phosphorus
    be intolerant
    have a doctorate
    in fucking
    people
    over

    prison of fame

    bring me shame
    let me know pain
    try to keep me tame
    i don’t want fame
    let me take your name
    look at me
    don’t tell me it’s all the same
    i don’t want a game
    burn in a flame
    end up on a wall of fame
    because that’s treason
    and i have no reason
    i want seasons
    where nothing is the same
    and i’m not used
    and abused
    and beaten
    by a demon
    in a business
    where there’s no christmas
    and i live in distance
    and everyone’s a witness
    ‘cause i’ve seen a mistress
    and there’s no forgiveness
    it’s a sickness
    ’cause you’ll never be forgiven
    live in fiction
    it’s like prison

    are you ready for your mission
    i mean your audition

    los angeles

    sick in the city
    needing a drug
    for a friendly love
    give it all
    take off my henley

    lie lonely lie
    stay right down
    and I’ll lie down
    and I’ll make that frown
    upside down
    and cliches will fall fast
    as i lie
    and look in your eye
    i’ll make you want to die
    and come alive
    another time
    it’s a crime
    but so sublime

    look me in the eye
    mime
    tell me you’re mine
    pull them to the ground
    say you’re down
    no frown
    i’ll let you wear the crown
    just let me know you’re down

    no tears
    as i move the hairs
    and kiss upon your face
    i’ll take you to another date
    when you’re free
    and no longer hate
    this is fate
    just you wait
