(2006)
How can something so right Be so wrong In so many ways? At the same time? Concurrent sentence
Lingering thoughts Sometimes overwhelm me I can’t even seem to Close my eyes Without seeing you
I still want everything To be perfect When nothing Can be perfect I keep wanting things
Wondering why history repeats, rep… Into a muddled mass That just comes back Haunting us all Calculating
It’s funny How I let my guard down Just ironically Periodically I contradict myself
If you could see it in my eyes The subtle refusal Because it might not feel right to… Not at this moment Not at this point in time
Dashed like salt Shaken from the shaker Sprinkled as a spice What did they say? Sugar and spice?
Despite the lies I tell myself I know the truth Will always haunt me Like unsolved murders I lay awake thinking
I like the way you greet me As though you’re waiting to meet m… Without the opportunity Of doing so discreetly You ought not to do
I walk this stretch Most mornings The tall grass Still glistening with dew The tracks are wet
Eat the pumpkin Stupid parrot Stop mocking me And calling me names I hate playing those games
If I was a stone falling from you… As you were holding on For dear life Would you reach out for me? If I were a tall
Honey mustard Paint me yellow Paint by numbers Two and three Never the right
Even when I wanted to run Straight for the hills I stayed here Taking my pills Pretending there are birds
I find it hard not To just Run right over to You Not caring what
