simplicity


i try to lead a simple life
wear simple clothes think simple thoughts
but this is not a simple world
it does not appeal to simple men
an incomplete soul is not a simple one
to be simple i must escape

these thoughts they plague my mind
i try to keep them short and crisp
use simple words write simple lines
but they run through my mind
complicated, convoluted

i put them down to paper
i switch the words around to make more sense
they are murky, unclear, ambiguous
language is in a constant state of mistranslation
nobody understand what anyone else really tries to say
whether they speak the same language or not
is insignificant because
everyone's soul speaks in its own tongue

Work in progress....

i would wait forever if only you would have me
i don't know where you live and i don't know what you're called
i only wish that you could see me standing here with open arms
i'm willing and i'm waiting and i'm ready for the fall

the thing that keeps me up most in the night is the idea that
the probabilities of ever finding you at all
are sub atomically tiny it probably won't happen
words can't even describe this new idea of small

So go on ahead and live your life and i will continue with mine
and maybe someday i'll find you and everything will click
and you will feel like you've found me the one that you've been searching for
and for the first time in your life you won't be feeling sick

you've been liviing with this sickness as long as you've known what sickness was
and as long as i've been aware of myself i've felt the same
the sickness is the fear of life the fear that you will find no one
the thought that no matter what choice you make you will be the one to blame

you come to me you drink with me we lay out in the open grass
you kiss me on my bitter mouth right before you take my heart
and squeeze it with you grip so hard and run away some place real far
as you sit there crying about your thoughts i wonder why i fall so hard

i wish that i could have you and i wish that i could hold you
i wish that i was the one that you would choose to be with
i think i am the one you want but for some reason you just can't
accept the things you feel yeah i'm just another brick

in this wall around yourself you build you hide behind your words and books
you rationalize over analyze everything i do
maybe one day you will come to accept that you feel these things too
you're the one that's best for me and i'm that one for you























Well the future's got me worried such awful thoughts
My head's a carousel of pictures, the spinning never stops
I just want someone to walk in front
And I'll follow the leader


the future is a scary thing. if only because of its true lack of limitations it is a dark scary big fucked up thing. anything can happen at any time. we live in a time when the fate of the world teeters on the edge of a cliff and we're this close to tumbling off into nothingness. and yet in spite of all the uncertainty and frightening possibilities in the future, i find myself enthralled with her, just wanting to spend time with her, get to know her, and share myself with her. people forge connections in life that are often unexplainable, and i must admit that i never would have thought what has happened would have happened but it did. and i couldn't be more glad.


Cause I've been feeling sentimental for days gone by
All those summers singing, drinking, laughin', wasting our time
Remember all those songs and the way we smiled
In those basements made of music?


only people of a certain disposition can get sentimental for a time that they're currently living in. i am certainly of that disposition.

they say that everything happens happens with reason
but i'm having trouble seeing the reason behind all these fights
every day is another thing i've done or i've said wrong
even in the light of day my heart feels cold and empty

i'm sitting here and waiting for her to come and save me from
all the things i'm so scared to face on my own
confrontation and fights and anger they make me break
my heart is breaking piece by piece and i can't seem to stand

i don't know what it is i think she should do right now
she's got a choice to make, i wish she'd hurry up and pick
