You Can't Pull a Push Door

lyrics

Buttered toasted bread, scrape the burnt crumbs to puzzle piece shaped stems
That bred a deity like Osiris the King
Crimson red drips from a poisoned needle, the needle punctures skin
And briefly I can’t retain oxygen
I’m sealed in tight, like a firefly inside a mason jar, with a hole poked in the lid for gazing daughters

I never thought of a human as an animal
Innocent and complex like a mathematical equation

Liquid forming in a paper cup drips as the ink smears
I’ve racked my brain for several months and years
To find out that there’s no hope in living vicariously on a one way avenue

An infant’s breath fogs up a dirty mirror, smudged with fingerprints
Evidence of household occupants
While army ants line in a single file while the sergeant leads the march
And his cadence is just slightly off
Tied to a string like a bumblebee bridled without wings
Rescued by doses of sanity

Waiting for answers, barricaded behind the walls of a castle
Holding on for dear life to a dream

Thanks for listening. ... more
