|
It's a tangible death and |
|
I can almost handle it. |
|
When it cancels my breath hold your hand over my candle then rest. |
|
There's no pain in this fist's release. |
|
I put my elbows on the window frame, glass pressed against my cheeks. |
|
Everything |
|
I see is mine. |
|
I never look back-- |
|
I couldn't ask the same of those |
|
I leave behind. |
|
They're just bubbles rushing toward the water's surface. |
|
A clumsy stage hand making a grand exit...caught in the curtains. |
|
A person should have pulled this rope long ago. |
|
Before the water hole froze over |
|
I saw the snow. |
|
The best cue for rescue is a couple yanks. |
|
Pressed my luck, held my breath enough, but then my stomach sank. |
|
Should have never been walking the plank with cement shoeswithout an oxygen tank or wet suit. |
|
But you don't need a hook for the worms to dance. |
|
Destitute conditions leave fishermen victims of circumstance. |
|
Off to the bathroom to sniff another line. |
|
There's a big party going on and you're not invited. |
|
Now I'm just howling at the moon, sippin' on its shine. |
|
There's a huge rock hurling through space, won't you help me light it? |
|
Playing jump rope with my veins tonight. |
|
Budget's dumb low; but |
|
I paid the price. |
|
The DJ saved my life. |
|
Nothing could cut into my fun, but the razor might. |
