This time I tried to plagiarize a smile To show the lightness of heart But the first glance dismantled the part of heart and gut The grin, to the clear eyes that mirrored me The grin, to the black eyes that mirrored me Coughing a smile out of droning words and colors Fabricate laughter and the sanity of self Because the lie of this life is the lie of all the useless sorrow That feeds this want and brings rise to error
Why must it be!? The only cure The only remedy I tried again to undertake a small spot of yearning (the longing, the lust) But the second trial failed to stop the part of heart and gut These thoughts, tenfold, flashing chemicals for a new day Slow the blood, damn the flood The maddest of minds The maddest of times Bereft of dismay I stand and fight nothing
