Fiction is swallowing me

~ Thomas Day ~ Laisser un commentaire

Follow the moon
Drive under the sea
Fiction is swallowing me
I say, « Here I am »
The sea is gone
Tide is pulling me on
Is pulling me on
/
I hear 15 monkeys with carnival eyes
My head is full of spies
Nothing to show for
Nothing to choose
So, I follow the clues
I follow the clues
/
The dark is a fiction that is swallowing me
I say, « Here I am but the sea is gone »
It’s a trumped up tide that is pulling me on
I got nothing to show for and nothing to choose
I’ve got badly written lines and I’m following cues
I hear 15 monkeys and I wanna cry
« It’s a dime store story with a Fortean twist. »
I say, « Hey! »

Fuck and run – Liz Phair

I woke up alarmed
I didn’t know where I was at first
Just that I woke up in your arms
And almost immediately I felt sorry
‘Cause I didn’t think this would happen again
No matter what I could do or say
Just that I didn’t think this would happen again
With or without my best intentions
And whatever happened to a boyfriend
The kind of guy who tries to win you over?
And whatever happened to a boyfriend
The kind of guy who makes love ’cause he’s in it?
/
And I want a boyfriend
I want a boyfriend
I want all that stupid old shit like letters and sodas
Letters and sodas
/
You got up out of bed
You said you had a lot of work to do
But I heard the rest in your head
And almost immediately I felt sorry
‘Cause I didn’t think this would happen again
No matter what I could do or say
Just that I didn’t think this would happen again
With or without my best intentions
/
And I want a boyfriend
I want a boyfriend
I want all that stupid old shit like letters and sodas
Letters and sodas
/
I can feel it in my bones
I’m gonna spend another year alone
It’s fuck and run, fuck and run
Even when I was seventeen
Fuck and run, fuck and run
Even when I was twelve
/
You almost felt bad
You said that I should call you up
But I knew much better than that
And almost immediately I felt sorry
‘Cause I didn’t think this would happen again
No matter what I could do or say
Just that I didn’t think this would happen again
Without or without my best intentions
/
I can feel it in my bones
I’m gonna spend my whole life alone
It’s fuck and run, fuck and run
Even when I was seventeen
Fuck and run, fuck and run
Even when I was twelve

Theres a pistol on the table
certainly within me there
an overgrown thistle of a life.
Neither skies nor fingers can be counted on
Greenness or light, standing
blindly and desperately I embrace it.
In the midst of an absence-revealing wind,
still I am standing

Is it loaded or not?
Will that time come or not?
Objecting to war is fine,
but arent you objecting to humanity?
Theres a pistol on the table,
theres a pistol on the table.
Is it the promised flower?
Or is it the weight of betrayal?
