is play music. i dont want to be a rockstar or any of that bullshit, but to be able to support myself (and maybe a family) by playing music is a dream of mine. too bad the world is slowly trying to take that away from me. every day i feel like im closer to giving up, but i cant quit. not yet anyway. so im going to give the whole god damn world the middle finger and do what ive been doing no matter what happens. and if i go to my grave alone, poor, and forgotten, at least i will have tried
swept to the side,
now straight across
but the stripes haven’t been there since high school
girl hasnt changed a bit
she still drop the same hints
since weve been
sitting on the tracks
throwing rocks at
the trains that pass by
i hope one doesnt hit you in the eye
i get no solace from machines,
yet often times they are the first place i look
i look for wisdom on HD screens
but the lack thereof, leaves me emptier than before
lost in a desert of misinformation
searching for any vital signs
some creature, somewhere maybe understands
a person who appreciates the beauty i find
in the little memories tucked away in my mind
i seek my answers from the earth
the dust on my feet a constant reminder
that one day i too, shall return
to the ground, the empty place of origin
searching forever in oceans of audibles
listening for any vital signs
some creature, somewhere maybe understands
a person who appreciates the beauty i find
in the tales of a lost soul, deaf dumb and blind
that house, i hadnt been there in months
but when i opened the door, it was like nothing had changed
stepping softly through the porch onto the tile floor
something was different, but i couldnt grasp it
your home
was my home for a while, too
and when i was there
it felt like i could breathe again
slowly making my way into your room
the bed in which we used to lay, still perfectly made
i know he sleeps there now, and im okay with that, i guess
but id give anything for one more night with you
your home
was my home for a while, too
and when i was there
it felt like i could breathe again
