don't come home tonight
there's no place for you
oh, chin up
it's just a tuesday night
and the stars have called your name
so don't come home tonight
leave it till first light
oh, chin up
and watch the speckled sky
i'm up here doing the same
tonight

her eyes look like lizard’s
the curling of her tongue
i learned to blow off the pain
like the ash of a cigar
it made me feel numb
the dull ache of the concrete
throbbing, striking again
this is drunk driving
this is the absence of friends
anomie, my enemy, my means to an end
all the little pills dance in circles round my head
at midnight the bell tolls
the river calls for death
a spirit child drowns in silence
pale girl, frigid breath
the way your lips turn blue
every time you lie
gas burners you dragged me through
propane when I cry
a burning sensation
the spark will ignite
before the damnation
he cleanses the inside

an heirloom
wrapped around your finger
a silver spoon
bent up like a spine
angel wings will fill your clouded skies
a loathing
gathered up like cobwebs
you’re fine being the root of all your problems
hurt yourself and never thought of why
time flies to find where the sunshine goes
a flock of feathers floating north
clouds cry, it’s just like the tiger’s eye
hanging from a chain around your neck
an heirloom
wrapped around your finger
meandering
over tendon lines
angel wings will fill your tired mind
a sleeping
tantrum in your forehead
you’re losing shut-eye with these dreams
vivid colors in the dead of night
time flies to find where the sunshine goes
this rueful weather taking hold
clouds cry, it’s just like the tiger’s eye
hanging from a heartstring made of gold

silly little fishy
come out of the stream
everyone’s got something
screwing with their dreams
everyone needs fresh air to breathe
paint your fins with patterns
patterns help you swim
in the eye of the beholder
your nature cannot win
everyone needs to look perfectly

break down your walls
and feel the baleful wind
the vitriolic gusts
to cool your skin
unwoven
like silkworm palaces
with your iridescent wings
you cannot hide
break down your walls
the membrane growing thin
and burn, darling, burn
the flames are rolling in
unwoven
like smokescreen vanishes
with your iridescent wings
you cannot hide

i’m laying down in the bathtub again
letting my mind run down the drain
i’m turning down your late night calls
like i always have
i’m looking out for shooting stars
in flames on the ends of old cigars
i’m letting dust gather on shoulders
like i always have
the quiet misdemeanor
flirting with the law
you never saw once
i went through the walls
and i’ll do it again
and spray paint your name
on a boxcar door
like i always have
i’m watching the rain land on my roof
the skylight reflects a face like you
i’m tuning it out and turning in
like i always have
the quiet misdemeanor
petty little flaws
you never saw once
i went through the walls
and i’ll do it again
and spray paint your name
on a boxcar door
like i always have

reverie why
does it take you so long
to come around?
i’m ready to be lost in a daydream again
and go back to summer and sit by the fire
with my peculiar friends
does winter ever end?
if not can we just pretend?
reverie, it’s time
i’ll put my troubles to bed
stare out my window
i swear that you were there when our hearts didn’t care
now it’s too sentimental to step out the rental
and see your car isn’t there
does missing you ever end?
