Hide from the monster with the magnifying glassLook at what you did and what you’re doing to yourselfThere are spiders crawling in your mindWeaving webs between your doubtsConnections that you don’t likeSecrets that you don’t want found All those things you never made peace withDo you remember where they wentCause I know for a fact […]

Molasses Flood
A spring in your step and splinters in your feetA bed of nails and a good nights sleepA sinking feeling you walk with til morningMushrooms growing through the cracks in the concreteEverything’s wrongBut you’re so comfortable Around hereYou’re up to your knees in mudEverythingIs moving through a molasses flood All that’s wrong fights with my […]
Boredom
I think I’m too caught up on all the things I’ll never do againI’m always sneaking back to the warmth that doesn’t careAnd I’m landing in the ashes cause I was chasing after the matchSneaking back to the warmth that leaves soot in my hair I can’t stay awayBut when I go back I stare […]
Do What You Will

The Great Big Whatever
You’re in the corner of my eyeYou’re a whimpering dog that isn’t mineAll arrogance without a single accomplishmentYou’re slapping me with your tailYou’re a down to the quick hangnailYou brag in whispers and you think that protects your reputation A shrug of the shoulders can pull the rug from beneath your feetNo one owes you […]
The Honey Blues
Relax when they’re impressedAnd worry about making statementsThat no ones looking forLike cracks in the stairs of your front porch Let me see you in the lightFeeling loose and brightLet me see you in the lightBare feet, hard tile It’s the honey blues againYou’ve been dancing round the breakfast roomYour eyes chasing lightMoving in and […]
Peace
Smile, you know you want to at least act proud of your carnage what else are you to do? you’re gonna run with all you harbored leave me in the driveway mouth hanging open it’s all you it always was and it will be going forward sweet sweet peace you’re falling in bed as I […]
