bright and burning blue, stretch your arms out above me. i know
that you still love me like you did. copper brown and orange red
burn the words that i never said. i'm swallowing the pill. if you
see me grinding it's a disguise. if you see me grinning don't
trust me lies. when the ink dries we'll have another
masterpiece. when the drink dies we'll have another restless
sleep. the smell is so thick that i can taste it. it's stained
so bad that we'll never erase it ... try, try again and again it
falls flat. falls rolling in and i can't find my hat. a magic
dream haver, an abracadaver, use your mind over matter 'til
there's nothing the matter at all. these columns are calmly
calming me down. the white stripe of light from the sky to the
ground is the biggest most obvious red flag, and it's waving
away in the wind. and nobody sees the clouds or the trees, only
the dust ... and the fire within.
