think out loud

think out loud and be proud
your one sound to the now
shift and move
your ground and sound
can you think out loud
can you be so proud
do you leave your sound
can you be in the now

waist high knee deep
i know you base your beliefs by the book
til it burns and you release your grip
you'll need a sign
could it be arithmetic
could it be a science

time will tell you
on Monday, mister Multi with the white olive oil and miss Reality with the brown plant disagreed about their choice of words
when mister Multi mentioned he wished to live his life in love instead of fear,
miss Reality expressed that she considered those words a cliché
instead she preferred to say ‘open’ versus ‘closed’
it was a rather fearful and closed conversation
then they realised every broken clock is also right two times a day
where we are will show you
then on Tuesday, mister Multi with the white olive oil and miss Reality with the brown plant agreed about their choice of words
when mister Multi mentioned he wished to live his life in love instead of fear,
miss Reality said “o! I would have said ‘open’ versus ‘closed’, but love instead of fear is pretty pretty too
it was a rather loving and open conversation
then they kept repeating themselves like a broken record
broken clock

William, you have acted too much the stranger
It was only my message that brought you here
You have become, I think, too wise or too backward,
Inattentive, disagreeable...
I climbed the ground over there to the highest rise
And saw you
Clearly riding, whistling to your hounds
So I believe quite surely
William, you have acted too much... (too much)
William, you have clearly - you must have seen me, William
So why then when hearing me, seeing me
Did you not deign to come until I bade you?
Now attentive, unconvincing...
You climbed the ground over there to the highest rise
And met me
Clearly lying, whistling to your hounds
So I believe, William, quite surely
Anything is two things 1
Anyone is two
William are you?
Anything is two things
Anyone is two
William are you?
“Close the door, Temperance.”
dare I dare you? die, do...

i waited so long to pick you up

wanna get my take?
i think you’re alright
we deal in feelings
we think alike
intricate patterns
shift in the dark
we catch their meaning
we call it art
we run in parallel
we’re synchronized
birds of a feather
two of a kind
let’s merge our madness
our hearts combined
speaking the same words
at the same time
wanna be my mirror image?
a perfect replica
wanna be my mirror image?
the two identical
you heard the gossip
about us two
you saw it coming
you always knew
which one’s a double?
which one is true?
all scuffed and beat up
a carbon copy
torn from my skin
you took my spirit
you broke it in
you traced my image
but cut too close
can’t tell the difference
between us
you wanna be my mirror image?
a perfect replica
wanna be my mirror image?
the two identical
a double crosser
lurking in my
mirror image
there’s an answer in the glass
a secret in the pane
it’s been there since you first appeared
it’s shouting through the frame
which is left and which is right?
the compass isn’t clear
the moral code reads in reverse
the letters backwards here
is this our fate?
to run in shadows cast by each other's light?
the speed of light and vantage point to dictate who is right?
take a chance, we’ll count to three
and hammer through the glass
we’ll see which side the fragments fall
and let the judgement pass
we’re through the glass now
i turn to face you, you turn around
my lips curve up while yours turn down
do you think my smile controls your frown?
can’t you see?
i’ve always been your friend?
i’ve always been your friend?
so what am i to you?
what am i to you?
you’ll never be my mirror image
a perfect replica
never be my mirror image
the two identical
alternate
counterfeit
sticklip
bull shit
impersonator
copypaster
doppelgänger
self-hater
imitation
replication
simulation
mirror image

generals die in bed
lucky spider, withered web
whispered truths don’t live to tell
devil fills the empty shell
general’s withered web
lucky spider dies in bed
whispers fill the devils shell
empty truths will live to tell
break my heart
hold my tongue - rainy pavement
break my heart
hold my tongue - public / private
my flesh melts into dew
withered spider, lucky web
generals die in bed
whispered truths don’t live to tell
devil fills the empty shell
break my heart
hold my tongue - rainy pavement

hold my tongue - public / private
my flesh melts into dew
devil fills the empty shell
break my heart
hold my tongue - rainy pavement
break my heart
hold my tongue - public / private

closer to you
closer to you
i want you close enough to be part of me
close to you
close to you
close enough to feel i’m you
closer still
how i want to crawl into your skin
