My worst motorist fear is realized
The lame rental car is out of gas
Angry homeward bound joyriders
honk and swerve to avoid my mess
WHY
is this happening to me?
HOW
did I let it get this far?
WHERE
the hell is a gas station?

Kindly declined your invitation
To join you in eternity.
But if I had

Tears of sorrow rain down.
A soft wind wraps around
me whispering his love.
Storm clouds gather thundering

This desire
Pulsating and savage
Makes me want to cut all ties
And head deep into the

I feel my beard if I let it grow it'll turn gray
I move my fingers up to my left temple
I can just feel my pulse
Living is easy it's a biological imperative
Living well that is a little harder.
Why am I complaining? I'm not

He wanders across the country
in search of Woody Guthrie
every back road a song for his mind.
I'm sure he'll work when he needs to
then try to strum away his blues—
finding his life one town at a time.
I won't mention the number
who think he's just a-bummin'

She's so ergonomic
Fits just like a glove
She’s so ergonomic
custom-made for love
She’s so ergonomic
Suits me to a tee
She’s so very ergonomic to me
She’s so analgesic
Cures what ails my mind
She’s so analgesic
Makes me feel just fine

It was like a shield I never knew I had
I wore it like a coat and with my age it seemed to match-
I never knew it would just go away-
I never knew it would shatter.
but many things I thought would stay the same-
I dunno I guess it doesnt matter.

A solid sense of passing time
Yet immobilized Inside I am a lake of fire
I'm trapped in this never ending thresh hold
Of in and out to find it's only my breathe
My heart beating my hand feigning life
A hand so blurred by the wind
Only eyes

Our eyes are fire are alive with emotion
Like chains they hold all we'd ever need to say-
But lips make no connection to these words-
If I'm anything to this world I'm Lost.
Satin memories caress my empty dreams-
Wrapping scarlet ribbons around my eyes-

It seems as though you haven't left
You're still here at this ol' house
I've shed my symbols of grief and then some
But still there's no relief.
Looking down at the ground from this great big oak
I close my eyes It's only a sound: or some sick sort of joke
I heard
