See You Tomorrow - Ok, one more lyric

Honestly, strange to listen to some of these old songs ... from the absurdly poorly done to a few that don't sound too bad (to me). Some of the singing on this one was awful (my fault), but the music is actually pretty good (again, to me) - the music for all of these was a collaboration with a good friend, Hardy (you can find his blog here: http://playingostrich.blogspot.com/), and the really old ones also included another good friend, Chris.

Written in early college - perhaps a bit of an angrier tone, but again - written long ago.


See You Tomorrow

Opened the front and back door
The same for all windows and shades
Left the keys on a filthy floor
And a note taped to the television
Said only, "Good bye"
Punched a sign in the yard, said "Take it all"

Now, a whisper sewn to the wind
feeds this starving parasite that
fears others share this perspective
where all to see is a dying fly lying on it's back
It's useless will ... is hideous
Punched a hole in the mirror and walked away

Watched with no wave as all fell away
Walked head down, to and from that place

Now, a will has it's legs
to deface the coming sun ...
Run for the treeline and the dark
to embrace where thoughts have no chains
in the hope it will make it easier
Find the mind has made the eye home
and it's hard to appear as perscribed

Bleed yourself dry ... bury it somewhere nice
Don't blame yourself, don't blame us now
It's all of no one's fault

Bleed the sun ... hoard what's yours now
Bottle the blood to drink on your own ... your private stock
wait ... wait ... wait, don't show them where

Bleed the sun ... all into one cup
A waste, pure waste, but who really cares .... right?
wait ... wait ... wait, don't share with them

And, be just like them
