The Last Conversation

Got this beat in my head that drives me
Sometimes a king don’t wear a crown
I reconciled with my demons
And I never made a sound
But I keep moving on and on
You’re not around anymore to complain
And you thought I’d never change
When it burnt like a fire inside my brain
You never let me in
Got this pain in my heart that burns me
Sometimes it’s worse when you’re around
Drugs never heal you
But they sure get you up when you are down
So I keep moving on and on
Don’t look to me to lay the blame
Because people change
And sometimes things just aren’t the same
You never let me in

Cosmosis

The leaves they fall
We disintegrate
Life and death
Wrapped up in a cake

Round and round
Spinning cycles go
Like your favorite shirt
Or a rodeo

Drops of rain
Shirts old and frayed
The earth gets wet
Feeds the soil like serenade

Just like those leaves before
And that box falls short
Into the universal my soul
Million mile teleport

To find that dead star
I follow that beautiful glow
But that star is gone
My eyes just didn't know

My body the shell of a book
My heartbeat's the pages
Conscious graduation
Solar radiation passing through my space station

This life's just a collection of phrases

My body a shell of the world
Set me free
Take my soul
Plant it like a seed
Spread me apart into everything
Always everything is me

Hello Helicopter

Hello helicopter
You can take me far away
I know you’re a monster
But I love you anyway
You take all the credit 
Then abruptly fade away
I wish you’d stay

Hello helicopter
Let me grab on and fly away
This is my final offer
Though I’ll change it anyway
You put me on credit
Help me fix all of my mistakes
I wish you’d stay

Orion

Going out
To find an angel
On the road
No one knows this tired face
I felt the world
Laid on the table
Locked up my dreams
I headed for outer space
As I leave
To this end that's fatal
I'll never reach those stars
From which you came
I can't touch Orion's face
Cygnus arm oh Never
For I'll be floating in outer space
Take my last breath, alone forever
This life is short
This trip way too long to measure
Orion sent me her love with a beam like the sun
So this long trip home in my catacomb
Orion I hoped to endeavor
