A Dream

i don't mind killing time
as long as time is on our side
and if not then who knows?
i still might, but so it goes
you seem stressed, can i help?
not what's best, not right now
so my dear, here we are
and if this don't leave a scar
we would float away like a dream i had
to the open sky
through the atmosphere, just you and i
we would find a place in the stars and space
where it's not so bad
no it's not so bad
cosmonauts drifting light
not a sound, all the sights
maybe here, in the void,
you would be less paranoid
we would run
a.s.

i watched you so carefully take this to the altar
this dread caught in your throat from things he did or died trying
pale skin pulled back so tight, formaldehyde inside
hardly the face you knew and i didn't
i watched you grasp for my absent hand and falter
that goodbye would have been my first introduction
the things he asked of you and others never again
all of these things you knew but she didn't
vatican views forced down the throats of mourners turned spectators
and a specter hangs above it all. weak stomachs flood into the hall
his mom has no tears left to cry; she's given them to all the others
i feel more eyes on me than him, cause here i'm a stranger among brothers
one of his four most intimate moments; there's only one he didn't receive
some of us know your side of the story
and looking at you i know you don't believe a word that Our Father is saying
so what the fuck is the point in praying for him to ascend?
cause when it comes down to it, there's no way he's going to heaven
and the priest goes on and on
a.s.

don't want you to say when the tabs kick in
when the room up and starts to spin
wipe my nose on your t-shirt sleeve
bite my tongue so i can't describe
what's outside of your bedroom walls
those same words line the empty shell
airplane lines running parallel
contrast, saturation, the sun's not hot
brick sits boldly against the sky
feel so dirty but don't know why
red car come rolling down the street
roll on seeds falling off the trees
dousing ourselves in gasoline
acid flashbacks, a liquid mind
they can't see the way that things have been
now trees are become our only friends
they can't see the way that things have been
now creeks are become our only friends
a.s.

Revisiting
03:57

untapped potential behind the walls of your bedroom
and the hall stretches on and on
blue circles spinning round the dark, spin across dead bodies in the park
and we spin on and on
overly sentimental, because to not be would be mental
so the train goes on and on
we'll buhl like we used to, because it's not what we're used to
so the night stretches on and on
in revisiting, we find some vices aren't worth keeping
places to be, people to see, and you'd rather be sleeping?
when you're retrograde, who do you think you'll save?
cause it's not yourself
we'll crawl into the briar patch, we'll run into the woods
we'll say we've got a flight to catch and see it does no good
we'll leave ourselves on thorny trails, the flame will sting our wounds
asleep upon a bed of nails and we woke up too soon
i pray this stays between us now, you pray nobody knows
we try to run but don't know how, the world around us glows
and no one has to say a word
a.s.

we hit the open road alone
our fingers frozen to the bone
and you're stoned, and i know
cause it's a democratic thing
it don't discriminate
unlike the place we were before
priding itself on what it ought to be
it's not that i need a source of constant stimulation
but if you shut up i think i'll lose my mind
i'm approaching this with a sense of optimistic trepidation
so darling keep talking, let's kill some time
so here we are
you got me wondering how to think
just like matty said all those years before
our poison apple, take a bite
and it's so chemical but we don't know
you're such a pretty little thing
i think we bit off more than we could chew
at every turn we know it might
cutting it close, honey we're used to it
we hit the target on the mark
the sky erodes until it's dark
i'll kill the pain, i need you close to me
a.s.
