[Part 1]
Last night I d
rove to Harper
's Ferry and I
thought about
you
there were signs on the road that warned me of stop signs
the speed limi
t kept decreas
ing by ten
as we entered a town about halfway there
it was almost
raining at the
train station
we put our hoods on our heads at the train station
we threw rocks
into the rive
r
the river underneath the train tracks
And when the t
rain came it w
as so big and
powerful
when it came into the little station
I wanted to pu
t my arms arou
nd it
but the conductor looked at me funny
so we had to s
ay goodbye and
leave
the monopoly board still in the backseat
took that nigh
tmare left tur
n to get out o
f town
ran into the decreasing speed limits again
What should I
do? Eat breakf
ast
What should I do? Eat lunch
What should I
do? Eat dinner
What should I do? Go to bed
Where can I go
? Go to the st
ore
Where can I go? Apply for jobs
Where can I go
? Go to a frie
nd's
Where can I go? Go to bed
I wrote beach
death when I t
hought you wer
e taken
I wrote beach funeral when I knew you were taken
I wrote beach
fags, well it
wasn't about y
ou
but it could've been. well no it couldn't have
I spent a week
in Ocean City
and came back to find you were gone
I spent a week
in Illinois
and came back to find you were still gone
I pretended I
was drunk when
I came out to
my friends
I never came o
ut to my frien
ds
We were all on Skype
and I laughed
and changed th
e subject
she said "what
's with this d
og motif"
I said "do you have something against
dogs"
I am almost co
mpletely soull
ess
I am incapable of being human
I am incapable
of being inhu
man
I am living uncontrollably
It should be a
ntidepression
as a friend of mine suggested
because it's n
ot the sadness
that hurts yo
u
it's the brain's reaction against it
It's not enoug
h to love the
unreal
I am inseparable from the impossible
I want gravity
to stop for m
e
My soul yearns
for a fugitiv
e from the law
s of nature
I want a cut scene
I want a cut f
rom your face
to my face
I want a cut I want

Last night I d
reamed he was
trying to kill
you
I woke up and
I was trying t
o kill you
Your ears perk
ed up
I perked up when your ears perked up
you were all l
ooking around
and I hoped it
was for me
I hoped you we
re using your
sonar systems
for me
The ancients s
aw it coming
you can see that they tried to warn them
in the tales t
hat they told
their children
but they fell out of their heads in the morning
They said sex
can be frighte
ning
but the children were not listening
and the childr
en cut out eve
rything
except for the kissing and the singing
when they fina
lly found thei
r home
at Walt Disney studios
and then every
one grew up
with their fundamental schemas fucked
but there are
lots of fish l
eft in the sea
there are lots of fish in business suits
that talk and
walk on human
feet
and visit doctors, have weak knees
oh please let
me join your c
ult
I'll paint my
face in your c
olors
You had a real
nice face
I had an early
death
The ocean wash
ed over your g
rave
The ocean wash
ed open your g
rave
The ocean wash
ed over your g
rave
The ocean wash
ed open your g
rave
