There Is Still Life- by: unknown forgotten

And the candle burns slowly away
All through the hours of my slumber
But when I awake in the morning
The flame is still glowing
And it's light fills my eyes
And it reminds me I'm still alive

Answering Machine- by: unknown forgotten

An invisible pigeon
Backyard swimming pool
Headphones while you sleep
Going to the dentist
Recycling bins
A 1978 Buick
Something about a guy named Rick
8 staplers
A squeaky door
$12.87
Road maintenance in front of the house
An early sunset
And the hum of a fluorescent light bulb
You won't believe it, I saw an invisible pigeon today.

1. What is the difference between ocean currents and wave? What about tide and waves?

I dreamed Chana sent me a video email of

of kids she taught at some school she
taught at. They play a "Jet" song.

Saints- by: unknown forgotten

I bit the bullet
And it broke my teeth and came out the back of my neck
I caught the arrow in my hand
Or so I tried
It kept going and sliced two fingers off my right hand

You were a saint
You used to be
So was I
Back in the monestary in our vow of silence
I could levitate and turn water into wine
You could heal the wounded with your spit and slight of hand

Now we're desperate men
Changed hearts and confused minds
So I tried one last attempt
To prove my worthiness in life

I bit the bullet
It didn't turn out so well
I caught the arrow
Now I'll be handicapped for the rest of my life

I meditated in a field of lilacs
I levitated once again
I rose high above the ground
Higher even yet into the sky
A large gust of wind came from the heavens
And blew me off the horizon like a speck of dust

Visions More- by: unknown forgotten

I watched the sun set behind your eyes
As I stared out the shattered glass of this horrible car wreck
The sky burned black with disease
And your scent was in the wind
I could only tell I was alive by my slowing heartbeat

The seasons changed and the children froze in the streets
Their soft supple faces cold hard and deceased
Sickening like the taste of sour milk
Or the shock of paralyzation setting in

She told him it was only for fun
We reveled in the humor of the worlds hate
I closed my mind as if I was feverish
And laughed with him that day

It was the taste of blood
It's so similar to the taste of metal
His blood was on the floor, on my hands
But never forget, it was in her mouth
On her tongue that I kissed

The stove was hot
The food was burning
No one was home
They were all out fucking
Fucking up lives with complications
Questions they have no right to ask
The mob held their heads under boiling water
And they never spoke again

We woke up one morning together
And realized this life only leads to our end
A man once said he had all the answers
The last time I saw him he was home alone
Dangling with a rope around his neck

The dog bit the child's hand
And ran in front of a car

The hot water quit working
Civilization is only a crutch on which we lean

I listened harder
It was the sound you hear before you die
Very soon it was all I could hear

It was too late to stop them
They escaped with everything I'd ever need

Honey, Watch Your Ass- by: Songs:Ohia

Smoke tastes like grey lead
It's killing her head
She finally let him have it
Here practice yelling at yourself instead

She nearly burned the town again
With the look that she gave him
She covers her heart with her hands
And says a little useless praying never hurts anything

It's like nothings got a pulse
in this whole damn place
Right down to the clocks
nothings got a pulse

Remember darling how quiet it got
Leave her alone, let her go home
Leave her alone, let her go
So she don't have to see you
How pathetic you can be
So she don't hate herself to death
Know what I mean?

That must be her up there
Perfumes and cigarette smoke in her wild hair
She smells a little like a train
Hauling lilacs through the rain
I can't tell that she's crying
I pretend again
She sees those total destruction eyes
She goes running to them

I'm finally showing her the switch
how I learned hold it in my teeth
How she's got to keep one razor sharp bloody piece
Of her old broken heart
How she's got to use that edge to carve
Across her new heart
Something deep enough to hurt
So it always reminds her
Deep enough to last
Darling, honey, watch you ass
