All of my emotions are pouring out of me
Lava from a volcano
It's a sudden river of emotions
All of my emotions are pouring out of me
Blood from a wound
It's a constant flow growing like a shadow
I'm wakeful
Falling through time in slow motion
Held hostage by my emotions
The result is final, unmitigated
Like rain falling from the open sky
I can't break the curse
Drew attention to the crux
Down by the water, near the byway
I made a comedy of errors
The pain wouldn't stop like tinnitus
The suds gathered
I took my anger out on myself
The sun shined on in Hell
Many faces pondered
There was hundreds of them
Old faces, young faces, sad faces, happy faces
Many faces collided together
Created a blur
A strange feeling was in my bones
In front of all and sundry
I shrunk into myself and thought of death
Him, the unexpected arrival
Waiting in the wings
Waiting for the will-o'-the-wisp
Went west, went east
Got a ride into the metropolis
Missed the gig
Got lost in the city lights
Pulled out the pith of the fruit
Like I was unwrapping a birthday gift
Noticed the difference
The flux, the flux of emotions
Flailing with joy like a palpitating heart.
