Open door
In sun pours
Feel the breez
eAnd I'm almost asleep
A woman I've come to obey
,Nay, respect
A feeling I thought I'd left
On an oak-shaded saltillo doorstep
Slowly sinking into silky white
While half-drawn curtains shield fleeting light

Electric jazz and static stays
And I replay a warm womb for days and days
If we didn't become frozen in placeI'd be completely amazed.
I concentrate on the nose on your face
And in the comfort of an isolated case
I take solace in the fact
That a laugh
Warrants last place.

Keep breathin', believin'Whether givin' or recievin'Every dog will have it's dayAnd every ghost will have it's seasonKeep breathin', believin'Whether givin' or recievin'There's a time and place for everythingAnd today I say we're leavin'

Since when were you the type to stick around for the fight

There's always an answer for "why?"

Got a light?


"Just one more kiss before we say goodnight"
"Just one more lie to make things right"
"Just a little more time to say good bye"

A bit'o'Steve-o's work:
The great debacle
My personal uphill battle
My to-do list that never got done
Places I wish I'd seen,
Battles I wish I'd won.

But instead I debate
A greater fate.
All theory and no action,
Or all movement and no satisfaction.

Either way the cost is great,
We've arrived to the party a millennium too late,
But at least we did it in style.
Like a two-minute mile,
That doesn't even bring a smile,
Because the reason for running
Has been dead for a while.
We're the life of the party
But the death of the party line.
We quit years ago
But we're still working full-time.
I am the life-long student
And life is the longest teacher.
I'm singing in the choir today
But everyone's listening to the preacher.
