Lost in the maze of questions
I've always asked, I'm so
dehydrated, dear,
please pass the flask.
Seems nothing will quench
my thirst these days.
Seems nothing is made
to satisfy.
What a desolate landscape
we tread on this dawn, intoxicated
on our spinning perceptions and
broken thoughts and
mixed emotions.
When do you think I'll
cough up the courage to
slay this beast?
The wolves are following,
but they're keeping distance.
The children are laughing and staring,
what are they grinning at?
Bullets from the inside, or
bullets from the world around?
Got to bite them either way.
I've dreamed some
scary dreams of late.
Hungry creatures, surreal settings.
I've been lost in my
internal jungle, the vines
doing their best to
strangle me, but my
will is a machete, the monsters,
they won't get me.
They already got me.
My dear, they've had me so
long before the beginning.
What's a long story to you
is a chapter to you.
The enemy needs you,
and I am one of them.
I wish it wasn't so.
When patience fails you,
being stubborn and uncompromising
can pave the way.
If the road to hell was paved
with good intentions,
I see the peace ahead on
the road we're on today.
Love my lie, fill my space,
distract my mind, because time
is winding down and I want to enjoy
this world as it lasts.
Light up the cigarette,
nothing left to do but sit here
on a bench, watch the world die.
Breathe smoke, sip some joe, you've
got to know how hard I tried to
change it all, how hard I tried to start
but bitching about everything
can only get you so far.
A girl I loved once loved told me
she didn't think I could love anyone but myself
how far she was from the truth.
A girl I loved once told me nothing is what it seems
I hope with all my heart that she's right.
Bullets from the inside, or
bullets from the world around?
Either way, I've
got to eat lead today.
