I'M STANDING AT THE GRAVE
OF ALL MY PAST VOCABULARY
MY FAVORITE DELUSIONS
VISITING SOMEONE ELSE'S DOORSTEP FOR AWHILE
AND I'M SUPPOSED TO ACCOMMODATE
YOU AND ME AND CREATIVITY
BUT WHO SAID I HAD TO ANYTHING
EXCEPT SET MYSELF UP FOR DISAPPOINTMENT

AND I'M DREAMING LIKE A REBEL
AND I'M TIRED OF STAYING CLEAN
AND I THOUGHT I HEARD A POET
BUT IT WAS ONLY ME

GAVE UP STANDING AT THE WALL
GAVE UP SCRATCHING AT THE WALL
GAVE UP STANDING AT THE WALL
GAVE UP SCRATCHING AT THE WALL

FINALLY THE CHANGE
MY OWN VICTORY
AND ONCE I THOUGHT I HEARD YOU WHISPER
BUT IT WAS ONLY ME

I'VE STRANGLED SUCH A
STRING OF IMPULSE
TO LAY LIMPID WISHING
SOMETHING'S COMFORT
GLAZED IN OUR NAIVETY
WE ASPIRE TO BE MYTHS / MISSED
THE MOST FANTASTIC POINTS OF LIFE
WE EQUATE WITH A KISS

I TRIED
YOU KNOW I TRIED
I TRIED
GOD KNOWS I'VE TRIED
TRIED TO BELIEVE
BUT IT WAS ONLY ME

BUT IT WAS ONLY ME
