You place my hand inside your head and tell me to fish around.
You make faces like a little boy as I pull out colors from the cardboard boxes.
She was a pretty girl, I'm sorry she broke your heart.
You ask me questions and kiss my cheek. Hand me a bottle, its summer.
After a few drinks I won't resist when you run your hand up my thigh.

You say its simple.

Quality of life is hard to measure here with the marshmellow man and an eternal orange circle.
Some shove buttons into zipper holes and sip off the blue lipped lunatics.  
I fed you lines slurred with untruths, I tell you to kiss the pretty girl.
Catch the duck, he's dropped his broken lid in the pinholes in the sky.
You talk nonsense, I try to keep up.
Wipe your big sloppy grin off on my shirt, yours is dirty enough.

I have dejavu many times a day and I shake my hands and scrunch my face to try to change the pace.
Pay me no mind, no one ever has anything new to say in these drunken circles and hazy rooms.
Everyone is accepted, everyone is brand new. Shine, come on kid show us your light up shoes.
I don't have a clue of what the picture is of
I laugh my head off then I hand it off to sit in your lap
fish your hand around tell me if you grasp any substance.

Throw your purity away inside someone elses baby blanket on the floor of sticky apprehensions.
I hear the music again, always running my veins away in scattered lines.
Dirty feet and hands and unclean corners.
I feel the holes in my brain.
Jump into the river, do you feel the sting of life as we suck the poison off each others lips and our veins burn yellow.

Come view the sickly.

What ever happened to gentle kisses and becoming real...
