from the happiness
that defined yesterday
lackadaisical like a musical
whimsical like periwinkle
i'm fishing for reason
to be optimistic
the bait's been taken
yet the fish ain't bitin'
content to be with
all that's floating my way
when the OE speeks
either you listen
or you drown in sorrow
forget that yesterday
forged the death trap
that became tomorrow
sick guitar riffs dance
in the fading dream puff
i catch by chance
without direction i roam
in and out of consciousness
open doors close to a way
that leaves me wanting more
perplexed puns play pigeon
shitting on my shattered psyche
i tire of the mental mess
that leaves me wanting more
when the OE speeks
either you listen
or you drown in sorrow
forget that yesterday
forged the death trap
that becomes tomorrow
