Listen
Whispers
Shine
A fly can live a thousand years
Blow smoke rings straight back in time
Never thought I'd hear you say
The pages turning
And not even hit a soul
Pain
A scabby ketchup bottle and a two-dollar bill
But a man cannot die soon enough, true enough
The toilet flushing
Open wings slowly take flight
The best you will ever have
Here kitty kitty kitty
With big city thoughts in the dirty breeze
Stop
You're
Listen through the walls
I guess its time to pay the bill, but you know I never will
A blood red waterfall
Mine
MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY
I'm hungry still
The sound of quick footsteps sneaking down the hall
Around these parts a fly can live---
Mercy killing on the way
I'm nothing more than
The leaky roof
Promising to set me free
Rain
Sun
It's just the lonely vacuum of human black holes
A girl with a face like prison bread
In this crowded place I could swing a cat
The best you'll never have
A smiling drunk nursing a glass of milk
Gone
Falling to your knees and pray now
Your dead things are locked up inside
And I'm as dry as these thirsty trees
Dance and sing under gunfire
Roses floating out with the tide
RUN AWAY RUN AWAY RUN AWAY RUN AWAY
Over the kitchen noise I hear them howl at me
Numbers on the license plate
A speck on your bedroom wall
"Waiter, check please "
