Tuesday, November 11, 2008

how beautiful you are

and this is why i hate you
and how i understand
that no-one ever knows or loves another
or loves another

the great gatsby - chapter I

'It'll show you how I've gotten to feel about - things. Well, she was less than an hour old and Tom was God knows where. I woke up out of the ether with an utterly abandoned feeling, and asked the nurse right away if it was a boy or a girl. She told me it was a girl, and so I turned my head away and wept. "All right", I said, "I'm glad it's a girl. And I hope she'll be a fool - that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool"

it's bad

without you i'm nothing

i'm unclean, a libertine
and every time you vent your spleen,
i seem to lose the power of speech,
your slipping slowly from my reach.
you grow me like an evergreen,
you never see the lonely me at all

things behind the sun

and the movement in your brain
sends you out into the rain

clowne towne

your true brother has betrayed you over and over
and looked you in the eye
your true self has become weak and alone and annoying
and a true ridiculous dumb-ass

and no more shall we part

lord, stay by me
don't go down
i will never be free
if i'm not free now

lord, stay by me
don't go down
i never was free
what are you talking about?

for no more shall we part
and no more shall we part

me and the devil blues

early this mornin' when you knocked upon my door
and i said hello satan, i believe it's time to go

fight

then you make coffee
to make me feel good
then we have a fight
and you loose

a good man is hard to find

i will always remember
to forget about you

Thursday, September 25, 2008

take it with me

all broken down by the side of the road
i was never more alive or alone

Saturday, September 13, 2008

be there

i don't wanna be there
when you're wrong.
i don't wanna be there
when you find out.
i don't wanna be there
when you break glass.
and i don't wanna be there
when they drag you out.

cold blooded old times

the type of memories
that turn your bones
turn your bones to glass

and though you were
just a little squirrel
you understood every word

and in this way
they gave you clarity
a cold-blooded clarity

sign your name

time i'm sure will bring
disappointments in so many things

despair came knocking

despair came knocking at my door
and i let her in for a while
she sat on the couch and began smoking
she said nothing
suddenly i felt tired
i began to feel tired
and all of the sudden
the room seemed dingy and dirty
despair came knocking
and i let her in for awhile

good old world

and there's a rose upon her breast
where i long to lay my head
and her hair was so yellow
and the wine was so red
back in the good old world

lousy weekend

doesn't matter what you eat
i think you're all a bunch of creeps
and i would like to see you all gone
stop comin' round my door
i don't care for you no more
wish you would all just go away

oh, oh, oh the telephone rings
oh, oh, oh, there's nobody there
talk about a lousy weekend

everyone’s honest

i had a girl who screwed around with someone else
she let me know almost immediately
and as soon as i found out
i treated her like a broken toy and threw her out
that’s what she got for being honest[...]

[...]everyone’s honest eventually

a fever beats in his head like a drum inside

i tie myself below the deck
i pull the rope around my neck
and in the morning i'll be gone

bells in the crooked port

to party on the ground to puke on the ground to call your former mystic and you tell him he is found: not again!

women as lovers - yet one day

all that matters is that love has come at last, and that it hasn't come to an ugly, worn out, drunken, exhausted, vulgar, common woodcutter and her, but to a handsome, worn out, drunken, exhausted, vulgar, common woodcutter and her.

ode to divorce

so break me to small parts
let go in small doses

Thursday, February 21, 2008

look on down from the bridge

i can't be the same thing to you now
i'm just gone, just gone

it's you

oh dearest young man
teach me sweetheart
how to love you
i'm a clever girl
you've got me lying
you've got me leaving home
you've got me crying
when i'm alone

Tuesday, February 19, 2008

baby said

my baby said she wanted some action
i said baby, i can't give you that
i'm a simple man
my baby said she wanted adventure
i said baby, the outside world's not safe
we should sit down

dance dance dance - 25

Humans achieve their peak in different ways. But whoever you are, once you're over the summit, it's downhill all the way.

whistle down the wind

and the places that i'm dreaming of
do they dream only of me?

the dress

i love you less now that i know you
don't let the dress trick you

dance dance dance - 17

I knew what was eating her. We got along well, but what she was after, the image in her mind, was somewhere else, not where I was. She wanted a kind of autonomy of commu­nication. A scene where the hero—whose name was «Com­munication»—led the masses to a bright, bloodless revo­lution, spotless white flags waving. So that perfection could swallow imperfection and make it whole. To me, love is a pure idea forged in flesh, awkwardly maybe, but it had to connect to somewhere, despite twists and turns of under­ground cable. An all-too-imperfect thing. Sometimes the lines get crossed. Or you get a wrong number. But that's nobody's fault. It'll always be like that, so long as we exist in this physical form. As a matter of principle.

I explained it to her. Over and over again.

Then one day she left.

this is our last dance

apistat commander

all that you left you left for someone
all of this hurt that's wilted off
all this relief, it's the oddest thing
oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.

asleep

sing me to sleep
sing me to sleep
and then leave me alone
don't try to wake me in the morning
cause i will be gone
don't feel bad for me
i want you to know
deep in the cell of my heart
i will feel so glad to go
