Sitting on the edge of a park bench and oblivion
I can see the moon
he's sitting in the sky
golden like the silk
of rumplestilt delight
he's hanging on his elbow
thinking about life
I am doing the same
you're my only friend tonight
I still have dreams where you're tearing me apart
quartered in the quarters
putting horse before the cart
you're throwing all your pearls
at the swine I think that's me
I am picking them all up
because a girl has got to eat
and now I am throwing stones at the locked window
of this guy I used to be
a guy I used to know
begging by the phone booth
for his love I wont receive
the receiver screams DIAL
tone I think I have to leave
I'm spinning in circles
under street lamps
in the light
playing both parts
I say
"wanna take me home tonight?"
there's a ringing in the park
from the swing that clashes hard
the wind is angry reasons unknown for his rage
as the palms
so domestic
we're hit again today
that's the problem with the night
its voracious and insatiable
carnal apetite
so I am sitting on the edge of a park bench and oblivion
just waiting for the moment when the usher lets me in
There's a dog down the street
he keeps barking at the mailbox
and no im not sure what it means
I keep making up fake names
and wearing fake disguises
to hide my guilt and sadness
when I bowl perfect games
the letters they are scrambled
so the words I cannot make
to the apology I require
for the actions you took and take
the walls keep on whispering
busybody gossips
like you've never known my friend
they keep telling me its over
the world--so time to repent
my brain keeps flipping
channels but still I am streaming
on the screen
a blood covered prom dress
a Jamie-lee scream queen
pause--a moment of lucidity
sometimes when its dark out
I walk alone at night
I love it when it rains.
It never rained in Arizona.
I bask in phosphorescence
and dream of sunny day
I love it whens it late and the streets
around me become a ghost town
and plastic bags haunt the highway
and the strays myself included
wander to feed.
No, im not sure what it means
