Tear tracks don't leave
paper trails
The flesh forbidden, made sin, then
put to sale
Those daydreams have all
flashed and staled
A toy, a prop, they all got
protected tail.
Come come
you're moving like a thief
So run run, no,
we didn't come to get clean
I see it clearly now
the darkened rooms and booze
to groom us
Those cheap love beats to deafen you
the role consumer
To aspire to obedient beauty desired.
Come come
your moving like a thief
So run run, no,
we didn't come to get clean.

Seems like every night we're led asray
The riptide, when dark bites,
drama takes the stage.
Tomorrow and tomorrow
we will have to change,
but we already sold tomorrow for today.
Sway, as your face turns grey
and as your mind goes blank
as you take that drag.
Take, they'll take you away
to where you want to go,
but you won't come back
and now you can't come.
To chase the freak, face the myth,
and wade until wet.
Tame a pet, buy a story
you can soon forget.
By tomorrow, O tomorrow
we will wake estranged
with nausea and worthlessness
and a pounding in your brain.
Sway, as your face turns grey
and as your mind goes blank
as you take that drag.
Take, they'll take you away
to where you want to go,
but you won't come back
and now you can't come.

And like a cigarette
hot ashes going cold
detrimental to my health
old habits taken hold.
Like boxed-up props on TV
ignorant to the plot
we play-act temporary,
but we all know its not.
I'll paint the wall with your words
to watch the wet ones peel
maybe I'm hoarding my thoughts
to bury what I feel.
I'm on the fritz this morning
self-loathings left me marred
you burn me with that grin and
you know it kills me that you're right.
I can't conduct the weather
nor coax myself to act
you won't trip-up the winter
nor thaw the final laugh.
No sleep for me.
Sometimes it's not a case of him and her.
I don't sit up all night 'cause it rains, dear.
