lyrics

DEMANDS


Standing like an invitation,
I accept your resignation.
I respect your dedication
to figure out your combination,
to succeed at failing to avoid the question.
Struggle to unlearn the lesson.
Love demands we make concessions.
Trust depends on our confessions.
Pass along my salutations.
Pass on all the celebrations.
Baptized in the stream of consciousness,
empties into seven oceans.
It submits to no devotion,
going through with all the motions.
No truth. No God. No path. We're pathless.
The watery concrete of self and sadness,
the heart we cut into the trees in our madness.
If it was all just a dream,
does that have to mean that it never happened?
The unbelievably true by tragic.
Lilibet, this is the magic,
little words I live and die by.
Day in, night out, the days just drive by.


Thrillkill to have and to hold.
You and I will never get old.
Take my life, you make it something
worthwhile, something well-worth taking. Conversating.
