En Passant
I’m sort of in action / Kind of like Jackson / I’m striking the lines / As if they were mine / They used to be / Down under the tree / I broke the tree / Just to see / What lies beyond / And to be free / Of that sort / Of hierarchy / To be and see / To let go / And throw / Up and down / High up that tree / You see / The structure / Of me / My family and friends / Of all the bands / Endlessly playing / That same old song / It’s nothing, but wrong / The one you knew before / It’s such a bore / To recognize / The pleasure / Return to seek / Out of that creek / Sounds kind of greek / Sort of silly / Kind of chilly / The hills / Pile up / My bills / I’m out of the game / Your name will be fame / With rhymes and tricks / And blows and sticks / That got me going / And got me throwing / Up and down / Am I the clown? / I think / I am?/ And you, the fool / Who sat on my stool / And acted so cool / When it got hot / I took the shot / Then lost the plot / We got to the point / We flipped a coin / I thought you would join / But instead we broke up / We went down that road / Again and again / Like friends / Or kids / Now we are split / It was time to quit / To quieten down / Us passing the crown / To some other town / It was their turn / To light up and burn / It is my concern / It’s your time to learn / To drive and steer / That spear / Right into the heart / And out of the dark / Into the light / And if it’s too bright / Then pull down your shades / Before it’s too late / Don’t debate / Just let it die / It’s very own style / It’ll last for a while / Down the road / Catching the boat / And fixing the sail / Then cutting the rope / Smoke down your throat / Just to exist / Using your fist / Undoing the twist / But, in disguise / Into the dark / The darkness / Of the heart / What bliss / If you open your eyes / Then you’ll see / That tree / At the roots / Out of my boots / And Into the youthless / Forgetting my toothpaste / And everything else / Ringing the bells / Smelling my summer / This little splinter / Until it is winter / And again / Summer and friends? / Holding hands / Skipping spring / And fall / Brick in the wall / Of the wall / I thought we were tall / Until we meet again / We’re beating the stands / With our own hands / Love at a glance / We could be friends / Just take a chance / You’re in command / Unfurling the thoughts / Out of the odds / And into the sun / You are the one / And only / Without you / I feel lonely
