about

Written in 2013

lyrics

take a sip


of this sordid air


this floating atmosphere





then dive deep


into my despair


this heavy blanket


of rusty nails





at your place


make a list


this heavy paralysis


on my face


break your fist


this isn't even over.


is it?



Take a knife to a gunfight, threaten to cut off your own head.
Speak to the world despite your stagefright, and when your done go back to bed.
I've never been one to cause a problem,
If you saw me now, you'd never know.
I was always the one who never got it when you Hinted that I got to go.




take your mom to the movies, this is relaxation.

take a break from the bookstore.

this is all you know

take a trip

to the taphouse

this is a local landmine

throw a brick

right off the bridge

see if it hits the little fish.




I found myself at a gunfight, realized I cant pretend. I spoke my mind that starry night when I found out you are my friend.

I've never been one to cause a problem, cuz the problems lived in me.

Open my eyes to the issues, help me to release this grief.

I couldn't take it anymore. So I gave it all away.

The well dressed man at the corner showed me something you can't fake.

I left my knife at the gunfight, my machine heart is on the mend.

I'm guided by the greatest light now that I know you are my friend.
