Out, Away, Above It
I'm in and out
I'm up again
God damn your lies
And damn my sins
Two words create a black hole-
In any other situation they wouldn't mean a thing
But now I'm falling down
Into the consequence they bring
You got the first hit
But through my bleeding lips
I'll tell you one last time
I'm out, away, above it

Party Me
'Hey, I might as well, ' she said
Could pass, but she inhales instead
One smooth stream straight to her lungs
Swimming lights- we're having fun
Pass the liquor, she needs a shot-
Roll down the window, it's getting hot
'Hey speaking of, are you free?
My last relationship just ended badly.
Wait- one more hit, now let's go-'
One by one, she takes off her clothes
'Cause there's a 'For Sale' sign hanging in her window
The drugs hang on and she lets go
'Hey pass that shit, ' she says to him
'Yeah, now this is living.'
Quick and painless it jumps her brain
Without thinking, she starts dancing
Under street lights and cheap booze
Now she's really letting loose
Defences hit the floor, land next to her dress
Can't find a reason not to say yes
Just one more time, she'll swear tomorrow
But then she'll choke, 'cause her pride is borrowed.
Well she's got a Welcome sign hanging in her window
The alcohol takes hold and she lets go
Now her car is lined with cigarettes
Along with weed and sweet regret
Last night's memories from every week
Mark up her bedpost, and her sheets
She's feeling down, she'll take a hit
'Hey, what's really wrong with it? '
The room spins around and there she lands
Staring at a one night stand
'Hello, familiar party scene
Let's just forget everything.'
She's got a Dead End sign hanging in her window.
She takes a drag, and then lets go.

Patient, Ever Still
She stands patient, ever still.
She waits there for me
With time to kill
On a higher plane
In a greater place
She waits for me,
Waits with grace
She speaks not once
No need for sound
Quiet speaks
'Til time is found
She waits there for me
Only smiles
Knowing I will take my while

Perfect Day
Like any other perfect day,
This one had to fade away.
Yelling, screaming, falling through-
Always, always misconstrued.
Trying hard, but giving up
Somehow always runner-up.
Turn our heads and face away..
Perfect ending to a perfect day.
