Imagine the same in reverse
Imagine the vain will rehearse
Well intentioned but blind nonetheless
One wordy warning to those under stress
Recycle the posture and words
Take notes from the well trodden chords
Convention, infinitive, form
Towards recycling of derivative

You have to be careful what you say
You have to be careful with what you do
That's what you said
That's what you said to me then
Hey did you hear that somewhere else
or did you make it up just for me
That's what you said
That's what you said to me then

Sometimes

Now when it rains it always pours
As if its going to last forever
How are we supposed to talk when you're always
Staring at your feet as if they're tied together
And when it falls apart
It's not like we're making much more than nonsense
And when you're sick of me I'll rid

As I walk down to what used to be-
but its not what used to be.
To a tiny shop where we bought our glass worlds that fit in the palm of your hand.
The figurines
inside reflections of our first gazes of ourselves. As I imagine in our pedestrian dreams we were so happy,
plastic

No control and no real role
To make a mind, to make in kind
Impossible, impractical
To imagine it different
Safe guard the things you want
You didn't choose; they chose you
Sit with patience and wait for
Something you know, you know

Multiply the wait, divide the

This time it's not for show it's different
One more failed atempt, indifference
Every block is another way to see it straight
Last word everytime and don't be late
Strange record of stunted growth
Wordplay and meaningless

I've got to find the pieces
I've got to desc

Some silent kid in a shopping cart from a parking lot
Think we've seen him before
We're humming along to the radio song, don't know what's going on
Think we've heard this before

You think you know what you want
Is this really what you want

An ugly girl with the bleach

When you're down on the side of the road
With your hands behind your head
It's not hard to see who's right
It's not hard to see whose rich

How else could it possibly be
Who needs new energy
Don't hear what I don't believe
'To seem rather than to be'

What was it that you wanted to say
Smeared in pencil, couldn't read it anyway
Got the trash and the bottles in bags
Some old boxes with notebooks in frames

I've got it written down
So I can show you now
I've got it written down
So I can read it now

You may fin

You can say what you will but your words won't commit themselves to meaning.
You can scream until you're blue in the face and still not be making sense.
You can say what you will but your words won't commit themselves to action.
You can scream until you're blue in the face and still

There's a man upstairs writing something down
I couldn't read some kind of hieroglyphic
Answer you phone or return my letters as if its all the same

So read your bill
You always overpay
Heard that before
Like everything else you say

Save your nickels and save your

We were always on our own-
we were seeing things breaking down for once, crossing fingers until it comes full circle.
The shimmer of light or the blinding sun-
now watch as we talk about how we acted,
we were living in the streets then.
Crossing the white and yellow lines,

All over again, take this money and run.
You knew it was me, I always knew it was me.
When the shouts first pierced the air, I could feel myself committed to being that which they said I would be.
I can feel the gaze from those around me.
I can say what I want
I can say what

These images replay
the things we shouldn't have seen-
I can't forget, I'll never forget.
But what was it that I was trying to remember? It must have been important,
it must have been true,
It must.
I can't remember, I'll never remember.
With all these floating points

Watch what you say- format limits meaning.
Power radiates from everywhere.
What percent, what percent of scenery changes do we even notice?
With what sense do the smiles we see cover death?
We cannot be bought shows how we can be bought.
We cannot be sold shows how we can be
