mood :: insight, foresight, more sight … the clock on the wall reads a quarter past midnight …
ring :: wake up like five in the mornin’ — four the sun come up, time windin’ … eye took my love down to violet hill, there we sat in snow, all that time she was silent still there … the grass may be greener but can’t even stare, how did the king and the kennedy fare? beware, beware … hurricane always came and seasons complete, bellow hair over there, now I’ve got to compete, with a bend in the hair and the sun in the air … smoke and CO2, ease me, scene you, every body in a suit can’t tell myself apart from truth … go ask alice, eye think she’ll know …
… remember what the pour house said: ‘feed your head,’ and the signature thing that used to bring a following, eye have trouble now even remembering … so why did i flip the script so hard, second take — talkin’ ‘bout timing, it ain’t always black and white, sometimes you gotta find a silver lining … are you still up … still shinin’ … under the pale moon, where i see a lot of stars, wearin’ sunshades at the night time, eye saw the sign, and it opened up my eyes, no one’s gonna drag you up to get into the light where you belong, but where do you belong … mischievous sleepwalker …
