Riotous TV clips
Melancholy keyboard riffs
The signal's not fuzzy it's dead
Save my soliloquy
Live with the millipedes
Taking up space in my head
Soft spoken acrobat
There is a time for that
Patience and prescience of mind
So we'll live like the martyrs do
Painting my notebook blue
and signing the letter in red
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nonsense and consequence
Fills up your lungs
Wasting quarters at Charade Arcade
Now you dance off my finger tips
Sneak from between my lips
Poetry and motion are made
Atom bomb
Sweaty palms
Beautiful blunder bouquet
Promise I won't choke up
Need to be a grown up
Willing the whining away

I wonder if my Grandma prays
At supper by herself
I don't pray myself
But for her sake
I hope she does
Because her gospel's like music to my heathen ears
I've heard it every Sunday throughout the years
I've been feeling restless like it's going out of style
But I'll just sit and pray here for a while
I wonder if my Grandpa cries
At supper by himself
I don't cry myself
And for his sake
I hope he won't
Because his tears are like nails upon my chalkboard ears
I've heard them only once through all my years
I've been acting reckless like it's going out of style
But I'll just sit and cry here for a while
I heard from a messenger
The words I couldn't bare
They haunt me everywhere
He said he loves me like the son he wished he'd always had
My eyes fogged up like warm breath upon glass
I've been feeling worthless like I'm going out of style
But now I'll feel like someone for a while
