When the sickle falls and the blade gets tangled in the rose bush my life
thorns drag slicing off all i thought was right
When the wishing wells dry up dirt rippling through the air
we'll all be lost memories
not one soul to care
Ask me all of the important Q's i'll give you a snakes views
as i slither away on my belly
eat of the poisoned fruit become a lost memory too
Sort out all the misprint lines i'll speak of hows and whys
while you slip upon your own lies
forking tongues slighting life
crumpled rain drops tears for you
The shadows grew wider i took a drive
most complex ride of my life
i pick up the phone start to dial
but what would she have to do
the light still glances everywhere
the echo of surroundings insane
SIGHT i sit and stare and wonder why i sit and stare
MIGHT reaching for one last shred to hold
FRIGHT and it does shred and it will cut me to the bone
SIGHT i wonder why i sit and stare and wonder why
SIGHT parts blocked of sun's reflection wailed to me last night
PLIGHT looking for any name to hold
TIGHT the name will capture me and leave me set in stone
SIGHT clouded sun's reflection wails to me
A drop of sweat from my forehead crumbles
but what would she have to do with me
NOTHING
IDEA
CONCEPT
CONGLAMARATION
ELABORATE
STRUCTURE
MATERIAL
CONCRETE
TEXTURE
FILTER
ERODE
OUTDATED
OBSOLETE
FORGOTTEN
NOTHING
Sprawled out on your bed at dawn you spin my head in pawns
while you slither away on your belly
Never OPEN always far not noticing the same stars
what once was now is wrong
I was open i was pure
yet i've never felt assured
...and i leap over my own ledge
