our friends on the front porch telling jokes and they swing swiftly towards happier times expending
lines and finding more energy for the effort and getting distance from that front porch spotlight
but us we found peace in shadows long enough to see the monsters rise candy's got some space to fill
in her daydreams living high on yesterday's lie talking to me about some 0% interest and how she got
a better deal than the next guy
and the way the lightning shocked us when we were lost and looking down that long missouri highway
your hair was longer then and now I remember
oh the roads unencumbered by cats they're burning like wet matches thru my miracle mile mind you
left your thumbprint inside me now for months it seems but mine only brushes your soft surface and
somehow it leaves me listless, my tongue curls under my lips oh yes so I cant speak to tell you of
the months before I met you
and the way the truth it locked us right about the time after the lightning shocked us when we were
young and missing round that small new england byway our lives they were sheltered then and I now I
remember
well its not even being about that anymore I gotta get you down those tiny fragments of perfection
they please me in a time unchanged when its not the same beginning or along awaited end... if I knew
all the words I would write myself out of here if I was all the colors I would paint you pretty in
gold in a picture so I'm told little sister so now I'm sold little sister why don't you tell me
about the sunsets in sweden and the laws of eden and how you were the rock of gibraltar and how they
called you foxy well that's another whole box of pandora's, that's another whole box of them ties
slide your foot off the gas before we crash right back into the median it separates our house from
the middle of the street... talking about our house
is on the front porch telling jokes and they swing swiftly towards happier times expending lines and
finding more energy for the effort and getting distance from that front porch spotlight but us we
found peace in shadows long enough to see a monster die. we all need to find a little space in our
daydreams long enough and just so long. long enough, just as long, just so long as its long enough
is it long enough? Is it long enough for me? Long enough for me to chew on. If it isn't... if it
isn't .. if it ain't if it don't if it can't then it wont. And that's just the way that it goes.
