no excuses, lets play

left-handed piano player
silly long haired boy
and youve got " I spy"
fingers from south america
and it goes on and on my friends
ill take the grave yard shift
youll be awake for me, wont you?

I'm allergic
to your indifference
make out room
makes me remember
that valentines day, amy and i wear
trench coats, no pants on the train
i didnt call you, i was preoccupied
with the lesbians with braces
in the bathroom


ill try not to be such a wimp
life isnt optional, tonight
well carry you home
no words no drama lets play
be
fahrenheit ambassadors
"that girl is on fire" theyll say

on friday night
i swear you looked at me wishing
i could be better
i almost apologized before
realizing you hadnt said a word
just shoved you up against
a liquor store window and kissed
you
which is better than an apology
anyday

twenty ten

lets get loaded and
crippled
remove limbs i only
want to use
with you
i truly do miss you
when youre not
around


its just the mayflower
and hula hoops
lets be as silly as
we forgot to be
when its raining
it seems i cant remember
it not raining, grey grey
hopelessness
we're caught in a trap


may be it was
better than we let on
more magical, sea bass and
rose, your eyes more blue than
any morning
and i fall all over myself at
the thought that
youre mine

seeing you like that made me
nostalgic, we hardly knew
each other but
ill always love
you, hustler

all that eye contact
im eternally
missing you
youre never quite
close enough
