Your rating:
Am I an amnesiac or a haemophilliac Or is this a heart attack? That burns the holes in these lips That shelters and stings That blankets then burns That hurts and heals To truth, to sadness To the the I devote Of an increase in heartblood To varnish and veneer Against their words that smear and snarl I commemorate I instigate I must not fake The this then why if how and Being seeing feeling learning Crying, silenced soul of tears and fears that fall to stand That fall to stand And how I remember And how I wish to forget And how I wish to forget And how I wish to forget Shopping in the real world It could be you It could be you What makes you different makes you beautiful And what you want is what you get, get, get As you suck in the headlights Of Lithium, Prozac, Viagra, Zispin, Temazepam Diazepam, Animal nitrate, Valium, Cocaine, Propane Novocaine, Methadone metronomes to absolve your sins Speak on Oprah, Springer, Lake, Kilroy The time the place This time the place It'll be okay It'll be safe So find yourself another couch babe And you'll get through So I bottle your mind With verbs that find Their place in nouns Of laced narcotic Underground Character disdenied and undesigned Of soul declined I bottle your mind To commemorate The pain, the memory, the dawning Into now So know and how I desecrate to educate To emancipate the chains The eyes that split my vision The voices that stammered my tongue Yet now I speak Yet now I speak In this war of attrition This heartraged mission This restricted code of breaking Breaking recognition Am I an amnesiac or a haemophilliac Or is this a heart attack?
