sometimes you start / to pick up all the pieces of your hard boiled heart and create art / instead of waiting / just collecting dust think of what all your words would impart / risk if you dare / how would you fair or even prepare for the stage? / and then / then you begin / shedding your skin / putting pen to the page / just before / you quit, relax and take a hit and think of how you are going to get even / between you and them / there’s something to be said after it all has been done and then some / stick to the script / loosen your lips / but don’t say no / take a trip / loosen your grip / but don’t let go... / take a leap / of faith and see things straight, just in case or as soon as your eyes dry / i’m a slave / living off grains / complacently waving goodbye / it’s a mistake to patiently wait, for tomorrow today / i’m insane, decay in the brain, chasin’ my shadow away / just wait and be still cuz its kill or be killed / face to face / finally find where I can hide / in the right place at the right time / where do I sign? / i’ve been talkin’ in my sleep / apologies mostly / i never said goodbye i never found the time / but i could easily find somethin’ that might rhyme / run for you life / please not with the knife / you’ll never get your way so just get out of mine / no time to be shy / no one gets out alive
