distance
forming
eyelids
foaming
how to choose
between
roses
and tulips
what's this
feeling?
of unknown
readings
how to choose
between
roses
and tulips
the gardener's here to trim you
the gardener's here to leave you a rot
the gardener's here to pick you
the gardener's here, the gardener's here
the gardener's here
to leave you a rot
the garner's here
to leave you a rot
distance
forming
eyelids

how to choose

By The Way

as the rapid train fumbles into pursuit
gaining speed, wearing down my brakes
swollen, gifted and insane
i can see the photographs passing by
it's okay
it's alright
it's just life
of everyday
it's okay
it's alright
it's just life
of everyday
i can see the parallels that frame her face
by the way my eyes trace her lips
try to keep away, hard to keep away
by the gnawing of ants that keep me astray
it's okay
it's alright
it's just life
of everyday
it's okay
it's alright
it's just life
of everyday
remember the days
when we were younger
couldn't hold the wait of my wants
the sound of the ocean
the feeling of sand
weilding a cigarrette
in my hand, it burned

come closer
imagine
a doorstep
tripping you in awe
so mary
immaculate
and joseph
were dying for your love
a bite of
an apple
and the bite of...
oh it's only for the best
and jesus
you gave us
so much
fucking desire
i dreamed up all kinds of settings
your the phantom that haunts my beddings
sometimes i wonder
if you ever moaned a syllable
if my name was easier
to pronounce
and yes i wonder
if your available
i must admit
inanimate
sometimes i wonder
if you ever moaned a syllable
if my name was easier
to pronounce
and yes i wonder
if your available
i must admit
let me animate
with you

first they'll mail you a letter
your final days in reckoning
pull yourself up and take a breath
been chasing last night's bug, again
i saw a bird
fly into a cloud
it's wings were damaged
were damaged by the sun
what reward will i receive if i...?
for defeating alcohol
pull yourself up and take breath
been catching last night's dream, again
i saw a bird
fly into a cloud
it's wings were damaged
were damaged by the sun
i saw a bird
fly into a cloud
it's wings were damaged
were damaged by the sun
wait, hold on a sec
sirens bring out
the colour in your eyes
