Dali Got it, Yes He Did!!!
Time is melting in my hands what to do with it all the coincidences
that could be chances the omens that could be the forked road of
fate all i know for sure is that i am awake and i am not finding
any one to walk through the dreamscape with and the moon is scowlin'
down sayin' Small Girl Your Boots Aren't Big Enough to Stomp The
Illusions to Dust i trust time even though it's melting in my hands
and the sands are running out like children on the last day of school
and i know i'm a fool for sure and there is no cure 'cause it's a
Ferris Wheel this life this existence this crap shoot sidewalk
jumprope game i am not tamed and that is my curse there is candy
in my purse and lipstick and phone numbers but i keep losin' the
dental floss and colored pens and the Chinese cookie fortune that
could save me from madness or a whole series of bad choices which
is what causes the madness but sadness happens to us all even the
pretty pretty liquid ones like Marilyn Monroe and Gia and Edie
and Zelda and Pamela beauty doesn't stop the wheel and you can squeal
and clutch your lover tight and bite his neck and whisper promises
in his ear but he won't hear you 'cause he's screaming, too and the
zoo is the biggest surprise of all 'cause you're the one in a cage
you freak you slave you brave brave moronic mouse the house of
mirrors doesn't play favorites go on and pretend and send in the
clowns try to cheat the frowns by standing upside down but you
will drown in the end 'cause time is melting in my hands and my
palms are sweating and you're forgetting I'm aware I know I know
you look away but it won't go...
