You'd Let The World Explode

Liver paté and artichoke
Choke on this
Oh
The art of asphyxiation
Pillow fight
Get it right
This is victory
Playing host
Raise your glass in a toast
White whine and fine dying
Mad men
Brief cases
Long winded
Talk, talk, talk
Out your/implore
Apologise hastily
I've got everything to say to you
Hiccup
Trip up
Messy landing
Weeping
Splinters in my eyes
Stitches down my spine
Reboot the night
Until we get it right

When I Say You're Mental, I Mean I Dreamt You Up

Déjà vu
Nostalgia
"Forgot my pills"
Dizzy with vertigo
Polaroids
Receipts and I.O.U.s
In debt, bankrupt
Lucky pennies
Heads or tales (of the woe)
Sticky hands
And situations
Mess/mess/mess
Multiple choice
Insanity
Straight jackets and girls
Bad luck
Gloom and doom and stormclouds
Silver linings
Loose hems
And ends
Spoiled
Fingernails
Hurt, hate
Have cake
Keepsake
Just don't leave me

God Threw Me a Bone. I Wanted a Gun.

If they told me the world was ending I don't think I'd be sad -
At least we'd get rid of the loose ends.
When I say loose ends, I mean the kind of kids you wish were dead.
Same old, same new.
Same big fucking deal
Whole in the head but not in the chest.
Leaking my soul out through my pores.
This isn't pity, I just ran out of bullets.
There's a boulder of hurt coming and I'd love you to visit when it hits home.
Sit tight and wait for the next strike.
I'm that ticking time bomb you kick when you're bored.
Because you can. Because you want to.
Because I'm set to explode.
Skeletons in the closet and ghosts in the attic.
The neighbour's aren't happy about the smell of chloric acid, but it's a great conversation starter.
"I hope you drown in your own despair"
And I hope that's not that end of it.

You Can Have Your Cake and Eat it

Once upon a ballroom you took my hand,
Tilted down in a bow,
"May I have this dance?"
Through the dresses, they missed us,
Our feet sharing secrets -
We're conspiring.
I never thought we'd end this way.
In this masquerade of chesire grins and raised chins,
Their blind smiles are vile and makeshift.

Together we could break hearts.
On the night sky's balcony,
You bent your knee and you begged me,
The dream is dying and I'm overdue to be gone,
To be long gone.
He smiled and said, "Shuffle my head."
One of us don't belong.
"Tap your feet together and swear you'll stay forever."
My knight on a rocking horse. My head on a chopping board.
When we depart I swear not to restart.
In this mad mess of uselessness, our promises are hopeless.

Through the mess, pity kissed us,
Our hearts shared our whispers.
