when the OE speeks

this monday is miles away
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
