all time's finest angels flock
to try and sheer the ram
spin the thread of loneliness
weave it through the hem
take it from the fly who's tied
to the same damn string
that all those cherubs grip
bring it to an end
love is just a synonym
for sun that doesn't set
ask the wife who's paid the price
all her sacrifice for dirt and arthritis
they got her by the hips
hips that used to dance all night
her moon could sink a ship

u dont wanna kno wats on my mind
stormclouds that kill my high
can't feel a single thing why do all my thoughts sound made up
fell asleep and then woke up to find
some buried solace by the front porch light
why should I go back to bed heard sleep is cousins with death
so sick of everyone being so fucking tired
if i let it go
it'll never come back
but if i nail it down
it'll never make a sound

light a candle
ten bucks an hour just to burn it slow
hard to handle
2 tons of steel while you're moving through snow
not to mention
it's hardly worth a fucking thing
when you factor out the cost of living in a state of fear and u end up giving all your secrets out to the unforgiving mouths

i think i hit rock bottom
last night
i was trying to write
the words came out bloody
and i lost my sight
and all night them angels
were singin like screams
i'll ride their coattails through the mountains and streams
i'll ride their coattails to where i died in my dreams
burning out
until the sun would shine
and just the glow alone
sparks flames that reignite
trade me for
one day of easy love
take all my burdensome
fractions and make me one
don't you hate the way
it feels to chase someone
who tosses you away
and winds up in your arms
the next day

act happy

once it left your sight
it started pulling on the back of my eyes
o, familiar love this is not the hill that i'll die on
wrap it in a cast
wet cement fragile skin weak bones
using your tears for good
harden fast and fly alone
i won't ever call you but i'll feel you if you feel wrong
even though you've been away for so long
got an understanding and i know that this should happen
doesn't mean i gotta act happy
i felt like getting drunk
everytime i saw you dancing in my head
bottleneck broken on the floor
the corkscrew would've been to clean
and i deserve a mess
i deserve a mess i deserve a mess

last night i dreamt for the first time in many months
i walked around with my kids in tow in a house i swear i used to know
i sang them songs they matched my pitch spouting tones i'd never heard before
admired the architecture that blessed us with space to love each other in
the lights went off so i looked for the box but it'd been stolen by nostalgia
familiar steps creaked as we made our ascent to the attic
holes in the floor show blanks in my memory
the window down gave sight to trees being cut down
by power men
