She's a fallen star, a windsock, a retrograde She's a broken car rolled up all along the bank She's a storm cloud on a shady afternoon She's the deepest end in a pool in all of June She's a better time She's a cancer girl, not saturnine, not fallen lame She's a pretty thing all wrapped up in cellophane She's a cover, she's a lover, she's a cover girl She's a moonlit drive, a deep song, a better life She's a better time

For a joke she holds the key to a slug inside her mind Her head expels the data store there right into my eyes I rush her from the barrier of contaminants to peace A picture is worth a thousand words, if only she could speak The soul resides Not in the light She is now blind This changed her mind Beneath a fibre optic headlight a man in green can see A perforated, disturbing vision of what I can't see One last chance is all she needs Undisturbed between the sheets She's done this to herself and me Her soul now dives Into the light Far behind Her former mind I sit in this room for her She thinks this is all a dream And she's killed me A soul implies Behind those eyes There can lie Another mind

High up into space of mind Beyond the realization of fear of death Drive from the dark sounds Behind the given moment of impact You never knew how the glass felt Until you flew through the border You never strapped into the cage Beyond repair And for a moment can kill you Beyond pylons and grass not a normal hue Lie a twisted mess And pain would be more prominent Except for the demons in your plasma Never blue as the glass felt Now you can taste your own mind A sound from the coffin Can shed no light And you fly high into the night On a rotor of care or despair Don't give into the impetus Of lasting warmth and slumber Tubes of coloured liquid In a vast array of smells Life within a bubble Please just be a dream And she was so loving

A leaf falls to the ground As she runs home alone Her fabric plays now Ripped and torn out behind the shed An impulse of suicide rushes through her head You've taken and broken And destroyed long enough She shouldn't be given This chance to feel your love And now she thinks That no one would want to understand An impulse of suicide rushes through her hands This black, metallic Blunt object sings to her "Use me, abuse me And pull back my trigger" She fires into golden waves Just beyond her view And this night who killed whom Is no one but you

Hear these vacant lies and hollow words Machine talk, a mockery of life And I have condemned myself to burn I know that I'll break you once again Tears that fall never hit the ground Caught up in a web of my own lies Now it seems that I'm that evil one That same *^&%#$ that we'd feared all along She had no one to run from but me Now she's looking for someone The ground rushes up to meet me now Cords that bind snapping with the weight The blood flows from all the opened scars Hide your face lest I strike again In orbit I shall cause no pain to you She had no one to run from but me Now she's looking for someone The stars beyond embrace me as I fly

I know you're out there It's been so long now If I could reach you I know that I could change your mind I know you're in here But I don't know where Things keep repeating And I can't tell the end from the beginning I know you're out there Somewhere past Norfair If I could see you If I could smell you Maybe this whole thing Would have some meaning But it's a red door And so I'm stuck here Now as I ride up This elavator I stand and wonder If it's the landing where you're standing there The door now opens I feel my heart beat But it's for nothing I've entered Ridley's Lair, to my despair I know you're out there Somewhere past Norfair But still your freeze ray Has left me stranded I know you're out there Out in the cool night air But it's too far now My tanks are empty

The horizon comes towards me Still driving The wind blows in my ears Semantic overdriven I'm never coming down Nothing but road ahead No remorse and no regret I'm finished here I'm finished begging you You couldn't keep me here Gaze through the cracked windshield Into the setting sun I'm looking backwards And choking harshly Her mind was changing Drop a shroud right over me Waves of sand and Vegetation Can grant a riot In a haze I drift away My solace is a broken Soulless token Of what I've seen In the time of tears It's too late To change things Horizon It's coming in too fast Nothing but cliffs ahead The sun flares in my eyes Kissing the painted glass Endemic to you

She said it's cold out And I'm all alone She says she's scared now And she doesn't know Forever after She said she'd care But now she can't cope With the world she's on And now it will all go on And now it won't be long "No matter what," she says "I'm always free" And I know I'll never be What she needs me to be Come into the light Forever after She said she'd dare Now she's entered My world so bright And now it will all go on And now it won't be long "No matter what," she says "We were meant to be" And I know she's lying when she says So sweetly to me "I'll come into the light" And now it will all go on And now it won't be wrong And I try so hard to show her That it isn't me It's a waste of breath, I know She's blinded anyway Now on this winter night Let's try to make things right Because we have all this time To decide who's right

Miles above the July tumult She hovers with no moon seen A black curtain of raindrops Unseen waves of noise Deeper still she soars A peaked column of rose Clouds gather below Send achtung again She shuttles across an envoy of life Within a glass dome of hum The twinkling fades To a murmur of grey Deeper still she rests And less involved in life She sends her love again On waves of pain And she feels it Hit the underbelly Now and she falls You don't know me Her fiery three's Give off a light Enough to see the juices flow She deems this A deeper sign In this find leave You don't know me Her fiery dreams Give off a light Enough to see the juices flow Detach the drawstring Destroy the whole thing Leap from the left wing Nine miles above me Fall like a snowflake Flash through the windscreen Detach the drawstring Destroy this whole thing She's above perfection This forward momentum Fly away and fly away

From what I recall All you said was red And inside was fire From all I've seen Don't you think that I Want you to be a piece of me? Based on that poem Your thoughts in written state Your deepest thoughts and words Do not equivocate Don't you think that I Watch you touch your hair And see you frown in hate Of the little things that make you crazy Those things you cannot change You know they only serve to make me crazy Don't avert your eyes Because mine waver You're my asylum You make me whole inside You make me whole You're my psychoanalyst I'm a psycho and I'm pissed But I'm not, I'm not your crazy Come on, baby Just say maybe Come on, baby And pin me I'm not gonna listen I'm not gonna sit here I'm not gonna take this You're not allowed to fake this With you I have treaded With you I have felt this With you I could die here With you I will be And don't tell me how You wanted this to be Because you're still a part of us and you're still a part of me Only to hear you say "Let me in this be And let me in this stay" Come on baby Just say maybe to me And pin me crazy But I'm not, I'm not your crazy

She said all of this won't add up in the end Because you and I have never been the same And I said I never thought this would all be at an end And I think she said she thought about the same Now the antimatter's charging up again And I'll leave this yellow dirt and dust and wind And I'll go back to Earth which wasn't my best friend And I'll tell her here on Venus it must end And if I can get back all right I'll send a message to her tonight Saying our sun will die And that she should grant me this last time And come to Earth to die In the security between my arms Now she's alone and to her we're all dead And now she knows just how lonely space can be She never made it, she never made it And I'm to blame...it...it all went wrong...it... It shouldn't have hurt that much By now she would have been here between my arms And now I'm alone and might as well be dead And make me pay for my red giant lie And now she's there standing at the door White light floods the hall; she's been here before This step has made her so alive... She's more than i could be there now but... "We had loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night" I want to be there I want to see her I think I deserve Just as much as you do too But it's not fair She won't be with anyone but me And I know and feel the same And now I know just how lonely she must be Oh no, no, no, no, no....
