these lines are for your convenience
so you can better see inside my soul
there's holes so deep you'd never know
The pain that ravages bones
the tears that eat my veins
the police that lock up my blood cells
for interrogation
because they want to know, they have to know
what makes my heart beat
what makes my ventricles weep
they'll never find the sighs that have escaped
they'll never catch the hurt that burned
a hole in my left lung
they'll never feel the ache that left a for sale sign on my rib cage
open up your fucking mouth
and spit out the dirt you threw at me
I don't want to eat your lies anymore
this rhythm wont get caught in the mud
of society and illusions of the Berlin Wall
it's tumblin' down like a London Bridge
that I've been burning for decades
the police may get me for arson
but they'll never call me a liar
I speak truth. I've opened my skin
for scrutiny
my past is mutiny
my future, absolutely..hell if I knew
it's a circus show
where I play all the parts
including the ensemble
there's a marching band on my intestines
screaming orders to elephants
and skinny cheerleaders
who's blonde hair and short skirts cut my eyes
out.
Oh but I fell for your calipso eyes
your gasoline tongue
ignited my breath
till every heart beat beat like the one two of the marching band
slow and steady. slow and steady.
you were like Johnny Cash
dressed in black already attended the funeral of ocean waves
that reached out to the sand
and were eaten alive.
silence.
that's all you've got now
you fill it up but still it explodes
like your ear popping.
no one hears it but you.
this life is an endless romance
of desolation and desecration
you want stimulation
I want a beer
You cry Oh God!
I am more sincere
I don't take shits but I give two shits
for people who are trampled
by words instead of caressed by lips
who are beaten instead of danced with
who can't write. who can't read. but their ears
bleed from cuffs, from scolding because
they didn't eat their broccoli.
