Just An Ordinary Day
Crash and burn
Looking for a house to sing the blues
And wallow in my weariness.
I light a candle for you
For me
For them
For us.
Not much of a writer anymore
Maybe I never was.
It's about time to get in the car
And get what I need.
I will be allowed to walk the weariness off.
Lay low with my little lamb
Wash my sins and the world's semen off my skin
Go to sleep like a well-fed baby.
Oh, call me, call me baby and say good night.
I feel your kiss upon my head.
I see you stare me right in the eye
And tell me that it's forever
As the tear falls from my cheek
No more fretting and worrying about your love
For it's blossomed and standing firm.
I rest my head on your warm chest
With its nest of dark curls.
I love you, I love you, and I love you.
All the work
All the suffering of the shadows
We see day in and day out on the streets.
We'll make it, my love.
As long as we know
the moon and the stars are for us
until the day that we die.
