I wasn't so sure she wanted him to stay What to say? What to say?

Vacate is the word
Vengeance has no place on me or her Cannot find the comfort in this world Artificial tear Vessel stabbed, next up, volunteers? Vulnerable, wisdom can't adhere A truant finds home and a will to hold on But there's a trapdoor in the sun It's immortality… As privileged as a whore Victims in demand for public show Swept out through the cracks beneath the door Holier than thou, how? Surrendered, executed, anyhow… Scrawls resolved, cigar box on the floor A truant finds home and a will to hold onto There's a trapdoor in the sun It's immortality... I cannot stop the thought running out the door Coming up a which way sign All good truants must decide Oh, stripped and sold, mom… Auctioned forearm and whiskers in the sink Truants move on, cannot stay long Some die just to live… Oh… |

The selfish, they're all standing in line
Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time Me, I figure as each breath goes by I only own my mind The north is to south what the clock is to time There's east and there's west and there's everywhere life I know I was born and I know that I'll die The in-between is mine I am mine And the feeling, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight The ocean is full 'cause everyone's crying The full moon is looking for friends at high tide The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied I only know my mind I am mine And the meaning, it gets left behind All the innocence lost at one time Significant behind the eyes There's no need to hide We're safe tonight, whoa And the feelings that get left behind All the innocence broken with lies Significance between the lines We may need to hide And the meanings that get left behind All the innocence lost at one time We're all different behind the eyes There's no need to hide |

Drive down the street can't find the keys to my own fucking home.
I'll take a walk so I could curse my ass for being dumb. I'll make a right, after the arches, stinking grease and bone. Stopped at the supermarket people stare like I'm a dog. I'm going to Lukin's. I've got a spot at Lukin's. I knocked the door at Lukin's. Open the fridge. Now I know life is worth. I found the key but I return to find an open door. Some fucking freak who claims I fathered, by rape, her own son. I find my wife, I call the cops, this days work's never done. The last I heard that freak was purchasing a fucking gun. |
