Painted Rust

Like a snowflake
Melting in the sky
Before it hits the ground
Or a dead bird
Strangled in the hands
Of a clumsy child
Look away from the pool
It’s too late to be somebody new
The neon lights reflect off the trouble you hide
In painted flecks of rust that’ll never dry
A quick fix to escape the path of the knife
Like a movie
With the sound down low
Projected out of focus
Or a rhinestone
Glued to a denim vest
To spell an epithet
Stripped down to the frame
No one but yourself to blame
The neon lights reflect off the trouble you hide
In painted flecks of rust that’ll never dry
A quick fix to escape the path of the knife
We’re all just fakers
Who never “make it”
And what they call fate
Is just a lucky break
Look away from the pool
Too late to be somebody new
The neon lights reflect off the trouble you hide
In painted flecks of rust that’ll never dry
A quick fix to escape the path of the knife

False Horizon

like the dog
who caught the car
nature’s never seemed so far
all our struggles
are in vain
still we nourish the illusion
till the truth it separates
like curdled milk inside a jar
and we see ourselves for who we are
as we sail off of the map
you can tie me to the mast
see the past in parallax
like another false horizon
to distract you as the light is fading fast
casting shadows
on the wall
have they ever looked so small?
shallow words
like sparrows fell
and they dribbled from your lips like
foreign coins into a well
a solemn prayer to yourself
or a wish still unfulfilled
as we sail off of the map
you can tie me to the mast
see the past in parallax
like another false horizon
to distract you as the light is fading fast
the texture of this stale routine
erodes the softest parts of me
