Am i really just pretending?
Or pretending to pretend?

People always say, ‘Why cant life be more like the movies?’
What they don’t realise is that life is like the movies, just none of the good parts.

This is a travisty,
an offense,
an assault on the human condition,
a lack of moral decency,
an illegal acquisition.

Who keeps eating my bloody boxers and socks?

minutes eat the hours

Love me and leave me,
there aint no satisfaction,
cheap thrills,
and bright lights,
you are my main attraction.

When the time comes,
ill call out and then
you will come running,
but f…

Hold me closer,
day by day,
never let me leave,
if this gets out before our time is up,
it wont just be me.

Keep me safe,
from all these horrors,
dont leave me by the way,
if …

Invisible paths drawn carefully across the sky,
Delicately traced with a steady hand,
Were decimated in a blow

an oasis;
unexcpected and unplanned,
little work needed for greater gains,
palm-leaves spread to catch any tears

Love lies best where its accepted,
Even if its roots are deepest where it is rejected.

To be interested in the changing seasons,
is a happier state of mind
than to be hopelessly in love with spring;

It is sometimes easier to scream directions at an unheeding actor,
than to take take flight and travel the ways, and the means, yourself.

Darker days follow brighter nights;
weary eyes,
tiresome sights;
less to do but more to say,
i know what it is,
but you explain anyway.

Brighter days follow darker nights;
more to see…

I’m going to kill you as well. Once I escape from the prison

The actors have left the building,
this situation is live people,

All the words in the songs make sense;
‘is it broken? can we work it out?’
‘for what its worth it was worth all the while’
‘its 4am and im alone’
but fuck this isnt a song,
and im not sing…

May not those who look upon my footsteps,
See where they lead to,
But where they come from;

and the silences between laughs
echo in loud intensity

and the air thins
and the weather thickens,
and we are surrounded in a cloud so thick,
my valley is lost.

Rain rain…

If it were’nt for you i would still be down,
and out of life from time to time,
feeling as though to breathe was to drown.
and to smile to lie.
