Time and Place

I woke up early, but I was late for work again
I'm being pulled in three different directions
You check the time, you check the date
You check the eye in the sky, watch the pupils dilate
I'm so ashamed, of what I did all day
Stuck in this place, that stole most of my life away
I'm an electric addict, making love to TV static
Oh the noises that she made, there's a war on your television screen
I'm swallowing little white moons, for this ebb tide in my blood
God dammit i'm tired, but I'm too bored to be this young
I'm saving all of my cash, I'm cutting off my hair
There's a time and a place, for this type of behavior
I'm sorry but sometimes I hope that it gets worse before it gets better

Oral Surgeon

Our love is like the stars
It could be dead for years before anyone even noticed
I threw up all over the side of my car
From too many of those pills I got from my oral surgeon
But I could be your broken mirror
Lay in pieces on the floor
Give to you a thousand faces
All too sharp to rub against your skin
My brain's an electrical
Chemical releaser, seeking dopamine and oxytocin
I took the whole day off
I might just turn on the TV and close the curtains
But I could ride my bike to work
And grow a beard to cover my face
I could eat only organic fruit
And I could move to syracuse in the spring
Sometimes you get so lonely
But you are never alone
There are cameras in your ceiling fan
Tape recorders in your walls
There's a man who watches you watch television
And takes notes

Teeth

Old faded watercolor painting of a ghost, how I loved you
Remember that night I got so close I crawled inside of you
Used my arms as your arms, and my legs as your legs
Stole the air from your lungs and used my heart to pump your blood
And you would never lift a finger again
I saw your teeth, and I wondered when you'd bite
It occurred to me, that I must have been a human being
At some point in time
Round and round it goes but does it ever stop?
Or do the cycles just repeat themselves and soon enough again I'll show my claws
And my fur will grow like forests and your screams will fill the hallways of our home
Until i'm locked inside the basement and you return to the safety of your room
You saw my teeth, and you wondered when I'd bite
Did it occur to me that I must have been a human being
At some point in time
