Childhood

I didn't know

HUH.

Faster than you know
Is the faster that I go
No reason to stop, no reason to grow
The hills and the lows
Are the purpose of the show
I give you my all
No wonder you go

Alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright
Hah!
Demon beamin'

Love on the stone
Dancing all alone
I dance how I want
I'm writing a new font
Hieroglyphics are terrific
When no one can read 'em
And those who do
Are the ones we rue

Good Luck

Left my key on the nightstand there
No number or address by the way
I'll bunk around the beach, no copy on me
So I'm gonna need you to bring me home

Clues to find me are laid bare
Littered across the room we shared
In the misty mirror of a hot shower
Laced in the water of our potted flowers

Given my thoughts
And given my time
I'd rather not waste my life
Giving it all to you

Last November, I remember
That nothing goes forever
For devils in angel's clothes
Undressing in stranger's rooms

Break down doors, lost in you
I can't find it
In my mind, there's a place
That you won't go
Where you won't fight

Future Days

There are long days
When my mind is gone
And a song comes on
That makes me think of you
I forget that I forgot
What I was thinking about
And I think about you
What it feels like
To be close to you
To have your lips close to mine
Tethered by an embrace
Of a leisure day's pace

Even if it only lasts for minutes
There's nothing much like it
To feel at home so far away
To bring my soul closer to future days

Storm

In the mirror I saw you
In your familiar pose
Never mine but never
Needed you to be
And yet, I can't shake it
Can't fake it anymore
Cause there's a storm coming
Looming outside my window

Right when you left
Quiet but I could tell
Lightning doesn't strike twice
So you never came back
You were a miracle
Never fully realized
That's what made it right

You belonged so much to the Earth
That I can still hear
The footsteps of your birth
Nothing would stop you
Like the storm torrents
You are relentless
As you march in my room
And out
