i boasted
"we are the children of chaos
and this shiver in my toes
comes from dancing on the edge of change
and the sweet loss of control"
del said
"you're a dot on the corner of a pixel of a big screen
TV airing the last show of your dead scene, i think you need to
slow it down
do you hear the words you're saying?"
and i said "dont know how"
i dried my eyes and said
"where do you go to sit and enjoy the privacy
that you claim i need? take me there today
where do you go? cus i just cant seem to get away
from this mess i made, take me there today"
he said, "dont follow to where i go, you'll never know.
rescue that solitude you used to know, but on your own."
i said
"if i could fly so many miles for just one day"
del responded
"we cant stop it so try to laugh about it
we cant stop it so try to laugh about it
they wont stop it even if you shout it
we cant stop it so try to laugh about it"
sometimes these people remind us of who we are
