The Abyss Gazes Also

I ain't gonna lie
I ain't never tried
once in my life   
fat and white and high

puppet
I can see the strings
I know I'm nothing
but a speck of dust floating by
caught in a sunbeam 

stole my wisdom
from the gods kitchen 
stove fire light my weed
now I'm tied to a mountainside
low times indeed

and the gulls are comin'
to peck out my eyes
at the end of each 
and every night
at sunrise

O can't you hear their wings a-beatin'?
tonight's the night they're gonna eat me
tonight's the night
tonight's the night
I got big things
been promised to me 

finally
my life will be 
hard enough
to write about  
and interesting
to somebody
outside myself

every morning I awake and
give my chains a shake
rattlin' like two battlin' die
on a losin' stake
halfway up this peak

I see everything
history of humanity's
laid out in front of me
at my fingertips

but I squander it
and still my punishment eludes me
comforting, I guess
to find stability in routine

so here I sit
eyes shot lips split
at the end of eternity

Zeus visits me
and asks me what I'm doing
do I need any help?
huh-- I did this to myself

what did the you do today
was it history in the making
or did you waste your time away

what did the you do today
was it history in the making
or did you waste your time away

Hallway

nothing ever fits

life's a black-and-white movie clip
hand full of cold sand slip
tear slick
through your fingertips

each grain
screaming
remember me?
we used to be
such stupid kids

and when I 
close my eyes
I can still find
the path through my mind
to those good ol' times

neurons trod and retrod
so many times
and Hallelujah!
here you are
just like I used to knew ya

faces lit up by the monitors
or in a semi-circle
holding X-box controllers

that was such a long time ago...

damn.

nothing ever clicks
nothing ever fits

which one was this?
in her summer dresses...
pirouetting luminescent
then she left and...
air kisses are screaming

remember me?
we used to be
such stupid kids

what was that essence
so divine?
your scent is overwhelming
my sentence our time is up 
gone

sand grains descending
slip and mixing...
can't separate them
no more

I remember you
I remember you
do you ever 
think about me too?

you were such a long time ago...

all my clothes are ripped 

nothing ever fits

I'm a square wood block
trying to push
through the triangle slot
the edges wear me down 
to the nub

I'm trying get back
to the shape I was
cuz that's the real me
I think
I can't seem 
to keep a grip on things...
