syd67

the day beside itself
breathes contemptuous winds
sweeping death from dreams
and forging new fear
smoke staining four walls
of grey indifference
yesterday's laughter
tempers tomorrow's secrets

Someone was choking me as I slept last night...I know it!!

The things he gets
Caught in that thing
Stink-bait shopping in
The seafood store
Works his way
To an Easy Rider glaze
The fact he gets any
We're all amazed

Sunday morning
Combs a missing
Gram, half-gram
Big Crazy Country
Puts that right away

Put on a gown
That touches the ground
Float down a river
Forever and ever
Emily

Emily tries
But misunderstands
She's of inclined
To borrow
Somebody's dreams
Tomorrow

"Thirty diamonds, birds of fire
Sparkle like the summer sky
Thirty diamonds, thirty miles
Looking for something in your smile"

pj harvey

Bottles, cans
Broken glass
Sun-bleached
Memorials
Saddest of sad
Remember who died
On the side
Of the road

"I'm gonna go to sleep and let this wash all over me"

there's the one who finds it hard to smile...

there's the one who laughs a little too often...

hope drops
blue from the sky
hidden laughter
no longer
chokes in spite
from inside
walls and tiles
expose the colors
in the eyes fuzz camera
do you see them?
another impefection
to balance out the day

chain in hand
open door
so bright
calling, calling
put yourself
back in place
before the box
is missing you
out of line
in between
frail and fragile
whole and broken things
