poptones

Hindsight done me no good

Standing naked in the back of the woods


This bleeding heart

Looking for bodies

Nearly injured my pride



I don't like hiding in this foliage and peat

It's wet and I'm losing my body heat

The cassette played poptones

Something in your monkey

Something must have happened
It's likely to have changed
and on the cars you see ahead,
shooting you in the air
and up to your room
taking it and never giving in



Remember when you turned me down,
And now you want to try
Remember when you did it again,
That you used to cry

Something must have happened
It's likely to have changed
It's a guarded placement
ammunition train
So holed up in your room
Taking it and never giving in

I’ve been imprisoned on the moon

I have learned what truth denies.
I drank the teardrops from her eyes.
I surrendered much too soon.

But I have sailed upon the boat
That flew when there was room to float.
And I drank out of the magic urn.

And I have slept inside the shade
encircled by the love we made.
And I have kissed the face of dreams.

And I have smiled inside the storm
reaching higher to keep warm.
I’ve known love and love has won.


I burned my fingers on the sun.
