Ol' Shifty Eyes

Never thought I’d see you here Perhaps somewhere less noisy would have been the better option This will all all start with a sneer and the clouds seek us for fear that the effortless job bestowed by the angels who dwell in their angles will deem them useless another year Dipped in smoke screens we will revive Draped in gasoline we will survive Trust that this is natures way of kicking at our shins Though all the magnetism occurring here should have been the “bigger hint” Oh what a grand finale Such a succulent feast Remove the veils from the prisoners eyes they are the forks to stab the beast If memory serves me which it barely ever does it’s tip jar lifestyle will be thrown out the window for accepting another love It’s intrinsic A follower A violent instinct undiscovered But I will find you and make you understand Take a stand fight the good fight for today if your chest is caving in you’re blindly on your way I will find you
