Puff puff puff

Breathing it in

Breathing it out

My eyes glaze over

Puff puff puff

"Am I the same as when I woke up this morning?" asked Alice

Witch doctor

Heal my wounds

Fill it up with thoughts of you

So when I clean my body and care for my wounds

I treat myself like I would treat you

Witch Doctor

I need to be redeemed

Need to find me as the dream in someone else's night

The empty space in their bed

The tear in their heart where they can't find peace

Witch Doctor

I still believe

That the heavens could one day part

Bringing me release

That all my intentions may effect and leave my name among the Gods

Witch doctor

I still need more time

Days pass

As sun and moon interchange

What must I do to make you mine?

Inside this place

Inside their voices

Where I long to belong

Among the chosen and remembered

Those who made stories

Not those who wrote them

In his heart

I am melting into a story

Had I known I was so beautiful

I would have thought differently long ago

That my eyes can mean words

That my smile can tell a story

We are the gods

We are the monsters

Our stories melt into each other

Soon, like an ink dropped onto the paper

We lose ourselves trying to fit in

I didn't know I could be so lovely

Wine, Booze, Liquor

Meth, Coke, and Crack

This is what we do

We are melting under drugs

And this supposed to be beautiful

But we made ourselves sicker

And on the radio, we are killing ourselves

Singing to make money

Singing to make memory

And enjoy the fruit of this moment

My wounds are numerous

And the pain

Though frowned upon by society as an unhealthy coping mechanism

Is like a beautiful high

The burst of blood

That is what we are

I can see it now

Us draining into all directions

As your feet crash into the ceiling

As our bodies lift into the sky

Upside down

Slime is leaking from the walls

Our voices squeaky

And our eyes are a closing

As we reach for each others' bodies

As we touch and laugh

Falling on top of each other

Becoming one element

This is a dangerous love

And it will consume all that cross its path

It is you

You stare back at me, concerned

"Adam?"

It is you that haunts my daydreams

It is you that is the face, appearing in the sky

Now I lean into you, pinning your wrists to the floor

It is you of which the stars take shape

And I take you

It is you
