Careful Thoughts

by Matt   Jan 21, 2006


Shining chrome, spiked to a tip
Drying loam, a poisoned sip
Bloody fingers, a repressed bruise
Music lingers, deaths refuse

Look into my brain, my screaming thoughts of nothing
Compressed into a single word, and all you get is loathing
Cant you see im weary, weary of tomorrow?
You brought it on its way too strong you filled my blood with sorrow
This wasnt just a secret, but a secret way too dark
Could you even understand beyond your ruthless lark?
Maybe you cant see me, maybe Im not even there
Maybe I am nothing, to you Im but an easy stare
But inside of me are guns, a shooting little tale
Where everybody dies, these thoughts just cannot fail
So listen very carefully, even if youre to forget
Ill burn them to your memory, and you will be all set
My cuts are made of steel; my blood is chilled with ice
But my thoughts are slowly fading, to a pressure-loving slice
And if you really knew me, for what I really am
Youd know Im very challenged, for life is but a sham
Youd know what you see is nothing, my glee is but a mask
Inside Im truly burning, hold these emotions like a flask
Be exquisitely assiduous; be careful not to drop,
And dont forget to apologize, or your plan will simply flop
Dont get me wrong, Im not just sad; Im pissed right to the bone
Ill make these feelings everything, and you can make them your own

Fire simply burning, without a rule at hand
This fire set above the clouds, and ashes in the sand
The lightnings made of snakes, the thunders but a war
Theyll bite away the hills, and take away the floor
Hurricanes are demons, floods are heavens land
Take your stupid houses, and burn them in your hand
In your palm is burning, like the center of the earth
A glimpse right from the universe, take it for what its worth
Reminding me of a dream I had, forget I just could not
Confused I looked for answers, but the questions I had sought

Dreams are monsters to the mind, memories are left behind
Torture fills the cracks in line, they chill my very spine
Pondering why you saw such wonder, not distinct enough to yonder
Trying to forget its existence, leaves me and my mind to distance.
