all of my life,
I’d stave off my sleep
and lie awake wishing some sweet magician
would transfigure me
and the rest of my time,
a beautiful breeze
that none would bring harm to,
nor would they want to,
to this lovely machine
in my dreams
I see her still,
she speaks in tongues,
dissolves at will
can anyone break a spell
they put on themselves?
steady your hand,
and wait for your cue
smile on command, dear,
they don’t understand you
like I do
through halogen days,
and deepest of blues
I’ll follow your gaze, dear
there’s so many ways here
to carry the news

So full of fear
and I don’t know why
I shake and shake
and I stomp and I sneer
and I wait and I wait
I’m awake, I’m awake
on a moonless night
I know the end is near,
we’re gonna burn so bright
on a witch’s stake
I tear the name from my beer
and I wait and I wait
I’m awake, I’m awake
on a moonless night

SoHo

who would ever call this fun,
running on an endless drone
a color wheel for everyone
color wheel for everyone
staring at the midday sun
every tenant disavowed
thoughts you never said out loud
tell them how it all works out,
there’s nothing here to worry about
now back into the faceless crowd
everything I’m dreading:
SoHo on the weekend
a jacket for a wedding
I don’t want to be in
I wanna feel alright.
I’m faded, dematerialized
swimming in a sea of light,
I’m swimming in a sea of light
I’m floating on an awful high
silver sun setting
on SoHo on the weekend
there’s something I’m forgetting,
theres something that I needed
something I’m forgetting…

can you recall
this was the time
for tying one on
for telephone lines
now morning just brings
unbearable light
the hot shower steam,
the laces to tie
I’ve got a joke
I think you would like
but what do I know,
when am I right?
I’ll turn down the blinds,
batten the sheets
be still my mind,
be kind my dreams
and now that you know
how the hours turn to days,
now that you know,
does it change?
all of these turns,
made in your sleep
and all of my words
that don’t do a thing
and I’ve got a trick
I think you should try
but what do I know,
when am I right?
and now that you know
how the hours turn to days
now that you know,
does it change?
you want love,
I want love,
oh I want everything
