Hospital Girl

We went to the doctor
It was sunny outside
You weren’t aggravated
we were side by stride
In the waiting room
More people papers pampering then the sweet sounds of her sweet sounds
hospital girl tells us where we need to go and I wonder if I’d ever be good enough to know
Short stop in another room I’m staying out the window then at you then at my clothes
With that I know
Why was this so easy
Why a rarity
I’ll take what I can get but can’t help think about
How things could have been
More close and forgiving just not our way
You shut the door again so that is all we had to say
I look to you but you’ve already turned away.
Then I took you home
still good spirits
Tried to play a song you like
But we had just hit out limit
Your in your room
Breathing air thats stale like despair
I’m an empty shell ringing broken bells the sound goes nowhere
The sound goes
hospital girl tells us where we need to go and I wonder if I’d ever be good enough to know
Short stop in another room I’m staying out the window then at you then at my clothes
Hospital girl is just a dream a world that I have never seen but in a different life I would hold you dearly
I would hold you
Why was this so easy
Why a rarity
I’ll take what I can get but can’t help think about
How things could have been
More close and forgiving just not our way
You shut the door again so that is all we had to say
I look to you but you’ve already turned away.

Here in my mind

IIll crash on your floor in the corner of the room
wont take up too much space I’m not here to bother you
Don’t come by to comfort me I can not take the guilt
Ill freeze I freeze I freeze come off as cold
I’ll feign sleep hold my eyes and listen close
Its what I know
Better to just disappear
Than think that you weren’t here in my mind
That you weren’t here in my mind
You were always there in mind
I’ll do the dishes and tidy up my space
I don’t want you to have to go out of your way
I’m used to sleeping on the floor these wrinkles badge my honor lore
You look me up and down and smile pleased
I do a pirouette free as a breeze
I can not see the truth in front of me
better to be unclear than think that I was never there in your mind
There in your mind
There in your minds eyes
There I can see Id need you all the time but thats not real life
Got my car started so I’m packing it up
Doesn’t’ take long hug fist bump
I shield my eyes from the sun with my hand
I look at
you you understand

Sad Eyes

I know I probably won’t see you again
With your sad sad eyes with your sad sad eyes
I know I always try to coax a grin when I see your sad sad eyes your sad sad eyes
See you’ve stowed your glow kept it on the down low
For so long you’ve forgot how to let it go
Slip on a banana peel
Away the sorrow don’t put off laughter till tomorrow
Patterns play pull dance Sway others move
Some stay there can’t be any other way than

sickly addiction
I cant get my brains off of you
Your a crick to my crumble
I stumble on command its true
Paris texas
Harry dean Stanton is the man
I saw that movie with you
My guts acting out
Jokes lacerate voice intimates
Nobody’s safe
Sickly addiction
Cant get these stains off the roof
oil slick to my slumber
Patent proper maneuver proof
I saw that movie with you
My guts hanging out
Zombie films make me hungry
Growl
I saw that movie with you
My guts acting out
Jokes lacerate voice intimates
Nobody’s safe
sickly addiction
I cant get my brains off of you
