Friction

do u know who you are?

She’s nervous, she fidgets, she takes a long time in deciding 
But he could tell she wasn’t reading the menu, she was in back of it hiding 
He said, “Let’s order cocktails first
Yeah, they’re good but they don’t quench my thirst.”  

But when the rain comes to the desert 
When the rain comes to the desert 
His burning thirst for sustenance shall yield 
When the ran comes to the desert 
He’ll be healed

Her previous marriage left her mud colored glasses to see with 
And he’s recently widowed and just needs a woman to be with 
He said, “we’re in the same boat you and I
Two vodka martinis, please.  Dry

When the rain comes to the desert 
When the rain comes to the desert 
There’ll be cactus flowers blooming by the score 
When the rain comes to the desert 
It will pour 

His romantic prowess was unsharpened and he was anxious to test it 
While she discussed her ex-husband, he put his hand on her knee and caressed it 
She angrily met with his gaze 
Which set the skin around his collar ablaze 

When the rain comes to the desert 
When the rain comes to the desert 
Those pregnant clouds shall burst and shower down 
When the rain comes to the desert 
They will drown 

She flushed red and ran out, embarrassed and mumbling curses 
How many romances rescued by ladies forgetting their purses? 
He followed her off in a rush 
Through the crowd like he was cutting through brush 

When the rain comes to the desert 
When the rain comes to the desert 
The sand shall be transformed into fertile mud 
When the rain comes to the desert 
It will flood 

He said, “I’m so glad I caught up.  Here’s your purse back.  I guess I’m just out of practice”. 
She said, “I’m sorry I overreacted.  I’ve grown thorns like a cactus” 
She said, “I usually don’t kiss men in crowds” 
And the restaurant filled up with clouds 

And that’s when the rain came to the desert 
The rain came to the desert
And nothing, not one inch of it was missed. 
The rain came to the desert 
When they kissed

When The Rain Comes To The Desert

NECRONOMICON

Everything awakens, and life returns. Chirping and splashing fills the air: spring is here.

Spring

nebulous forms sometimes take place and sometimes don't. these kind of forces are dependent upon other forces which indicate the correct passageways for the christening of ideas. such parabolas are not easily schematised and not easily abstracted from a larger collection of ideas and their genesis pool. the archways and other ornamental features are only conceivable as semi immaculate, which is a betrayal of their form in multi-dimensional phase space. 

Relm - incorrect cartomancy.

king of the double standard
Shaman of hypocrisy
Hacking into my accounts
swearing you're in love with me
I ain't sorry for nothing
conversation isn't sex
been faithful to a cheating man
who put my ass under his hex

Accusations I find laughable
damned excuses all played out
I guess you're sleeping with somebody
I hope your mama's got some clout
I hope your libido's been downgraded
to non existent circumstance
as you study your own reflection
let the liar take his stance

spitting fire with your loose lips
inciting conspiracy
stick together, cover your tracks
leave the accolades to me
I don't need your childish drama
nothing worth having comes for free
drown your sorrow in Jack Daniel's
but don't come crawling back to me

tried to tell you you were slipping
 ignored it all repeatedly
now you've lost a damn good woman
and  I still have my sanity
no spare time for melodrama
no patience for hypocrisy 
worry about your own damn karma
it means nothing more to me

say goodbye

king of the double standard
Shaman of hypocrisy
hearts on fire with the scandal
Someone would dare to set you free
never believed you really loved me
you just needed company
now we are locked together
in a haunting memory

say goodbye
goodbye, baby
say goodbye to me
nothing lasts forever
but love will set you free

say goodbye
baby say goodbye
nothing last forever
Even when we try
