She is susceptible
he is impossible
they have their cross to share
three of a perfect pair...
he has his contradicting views
she has her cyclothymic moods
they make a study in despair
three of a perfect pair...
One, one too many
schizophrenic tendencies
keeps it complicated
keeps it aggravated
and full of this hopelessness
what a perfect mess...
It's here I sit and rust amid this ruin and rancor like tire
irons
toothy grills and car parts before me...the acid rain floods
my
floorboard, burns my pores, and rots my upholstry.. once I
was
worshipped, polished magnificently, now I lay in decay by
the dirty angry bay...
I'm ready to leave
I wanna get out of here
I'm ready to ride away
I don't want to die in here
I'm ready to ride
My skin is metallic now,
no longer an elegant powder blue...
my body unhinged and sleeping in the jungle
of motor block manifolds and metal relics...
what was deluxe becomes debris,
I never questioned loyalty,
but this dead end demolishes
the dream of an open highway...
Dig me...but don't...bury me
