Happiness, an elusive dream. Vaporous and filled with fits and starts. Doldrums are no one's ally. A gust of breeze could be all we could need.. To fill our sails and pass away.. Over the horizon to further shores. It's as though, I made all the wrong moves. And if so, don't you wanna be left alone? Maybe someday I'll settle down. To a land where the weather is never dull. I fear that once I am on the sea.. Dry land will be just a dream to me. The wind and waves are now my home. Salty air is all I can breathe. Betty and Veronica.. So easy to love.. When they were panels on a page. It's as though, I made all the wrong moves. And if so, don't you wanna be left alone? Don't you wanna be left alone?

Bitter 01:56
All my gums are bleeding, now I am clean and can get back to being bitter. Last winter I was warm. This one's just that old familiar cold. I've done it for 22 years; I can do it again. Family quilts keep me close to home and I made the mistake of letting you in. I won't get caught slippin' only sweatin' off this fever. You get me hot fucking blooded, hot fucking tempered, push my buttons and I liked it that way. You break through barriers of tmz to have talks with me in dreams. This one was the third time, never the same scene. Only a reoccurring character someone I used to know better. I still miss the caress of your chin on my chest. My fingers flowing freely through your hair. I still miss the caress of your chin on my chest. Your fingers tightly tangled in my hair. And it's not a feeling I try to forget lightly.

Day 2 02:12
You can say you love me, but I know you're lying. There's no use in even trying. My friends they hate you. I asked to kiss you and you declined, now I know you're no longer mine. Blank stares all in the air. Every day it gets harder to breathe when I remember how you leave. You looked back three times. I was gonna burn your painting, but you never made it to the car. Food doesn't taste the same; I threw up in the bathroom and nothing has changed. Nothing has changed. I'm still sick. Sick to my stomach. I fell asleep cuddling a bottle. Your voice, it haunts me. I've got a problem. I cut my hair. Marlo thinks you miss her, but I know you're lying. Or you wouldn't have left. I cut my hair to get rid of your past presence. You are a liar; I don't want to know you anymore.

Is it a surprise, tears come to my eyes.. When I hear the songs you and I used to dance to? We could bop around acting like clowns. Keeping our neighbors awake and annoyed. Have half a heart. Please do not depart.. So soon upon your return to my world. We could bop around acting like clowns. Keeping our neighbors awake and annoyed. Awake and annoyed again.
