An Other Song on the Jukebox Baby


Today seems like a good day to burn a bridge or two.

The sky resembles a backlit canopy with holes punched in it.

In California with my toes in the sand, head in the clouds but my gravity centered,

‘Cause I’m sick of not living to stay alive.

And I’m just a student of the game they taught me-

Maybe I’m a different breed. Maybe I’m not listening.

Breathe out so I can breathe you in…

We will burn inside the fire of a thousand suns!

…but everything looks perfect from far away, Come down now,” but we’ll stay.

And what about your soul? Is it cold? Is it straight from the mold and ready to be sold?

Just a drop of water in an endless sea...

It’s something unpredictable, but in the end it’s right. I hope you had the time of your life.

And then...

  Change is like that strong smell of cut grass or chopped wood that stops you still. Patterns, a symbol can be an illegible sign,  at first...
