Friday Morning

Lyrics

Thank you for helping me With the settings and configurations Of my cellphone yesterday Now I can enjoy the weather And the battery power at a glance But more than anything else Thank you for your art The image of Saturn And one of its moons In glorious colors I would not have chosen On my own And when I open my cellphone I see that image you put there And nothing can compare Because it was your selection Not the standard choice And when the police cars Drive by the spotlight on the park At 2:17 AM The time I see above Saturn It makes me happy Amongst all this sadness And I'm thankful for that So very thankful I don't know what I bring to the table But your help is so very appreciated My cellphone is a friend Because you're at the other end Maybe Sometimes Just maybe It's always by my side Waking Sleeping If you're not here At least you're there At the other end Of the cellphone line Maybe Sometimes Just maybe My number is forever It doesn't change So you always have it If you should ever need it I know that numbers come and go Are discarded and forgotten It's only a brief time of life That they are important But maybe Just maybe It won't be that way Life goes on With you or without you With you is a symphony Without you is a dirge Right now Well right now I can't put the pieces together There's only a soft breeze Sometimes flowing by Rustling the leaves Of a turning color tree And out past the sidewalk Where no one walks This time of night Some spirits are there If I can only see them The spirits you left When you departed And I was left hanging Without you Maybe you didn't really leave But it felt that way And now I'm broken lonely Abiding in a place only I know Iron railings protect me From falling to the ground Not that I care too much But I might tomorrow There's a wild place Out far away That has no high places Where you traverse the ground In search of nothing Except that which you find And most would say What's this all about But I say This is about nothing What else Walk on walk on To nowhere What do you think You got a handle on it You think you know All you bright answers Are shielded by the iron railing Bare your body to the death You find as you traverse The lonely fields You find yourself walking through I die today I kill all of me Only to become What I don't know All the world succumbs With me Annihilation Explosion Earthquake I'm falling into God knows where And that's the point I don't care Take me all you angels The angel I had Departed I'm grounded Left to walk the earth Lost my Heavenly stars What did I think I could be there In the Heavens Maybe tomorrow But now I'm back to earth Heavy with the soil Oh for the airy clouds These floors that I know I would gladly give away Forget them forever If only I could walk your floors Forever That's why I was born I don't care about me Find me in you Some might say I'm helpless I don't agree I assume all power As long as you love me If you do If not I'm the same Lost soul I always was You see your love Gives me such life Apart from this death I die every day Inebriation I'm dead Except I'm alive In some small way But the agitation Seems to be blurred My mind is averted Away from all those thoughts Taking over my well-being If I had that For a while I thought I did But now I'm here Clawing at the moon Where are you my heart Disappeared in the night Even though it was day When the pain took me over How will I ever know That somebody likes me How can I ever be sure Of anyone My broken love on the rocks Ocean waves crashing over I started out thinking of you I don't want to stop now Your illumination is brilliant It's only my darkness That foils me Oh God how I love you Colored leaves resting on your knees Why do I kill myself Constantly But let's return To loving you Forget anything else The joy the joy The exhilaration Can I make you happy Yes that's my life But I saddened you And I don't know how To overcome that I'm a pickle in salt brine Maybe I can cure someone Of something Someday Once again Maybe But I love you so much
