It came out of the blue like an in grown tooth
Came together like a thatched roof
Fugitive on the loose
A geek reading a book, hydrated with juice
Dipped my spoon back into the soup
Suicidal with a noose
Believing every falsehood
I've went and drowned out the world
Numbed the pain, actor in a costume
My eyes are glued to the silver screen
Watching the secular, gawky movements
In this present moment I am mute
Much like a scarecrow
At the end of the rainbow
I've lived many lives
This one is hare-brained, for sure
I am my own worst enemy
Ready to plunge and slice through life
I'm ice cold on my throne
Gazing into the long unknown
Like an insider, I see blue colours
Summer weather, stonewashed commoners
Making a departure like an aura
When the juncture is over I will sing
Momentous advice
Songs from my ornate mind
I'm frozen in time
Ruminating about 2009
I've dressed the truth in argot
Faced my karma, faced the dregs
Since my dreams expired
I've been keeping my head low
Been put on the blacklist
Made threats, broke promises
I need it, want it, crave it, can't live
Can't live without it
Don't know if it was worth it
Head on the pillow, laid on the mattress
In a fantasy
I ran from the numerous voices
Down the bridle path
The keepsake brings back memories
They twirl like spaghetti
Sparks flying in a factory
I'm a broken machine.
