Distractions, Distractions

Bound

You’re standing on the edge
You can’t see what’s ahead
Will you take that little step?
Or will you just go home instead?

You’ve been here a hundred times
And you’ll come back again
Cause you keep changing your mind
Every now and then

You play it on repeat
This idea inside your head
In the dark you don’t stop moving
Like you’re following a thread

And even though you can’t see
Everything becomes so clear
This idea, this place you’ve come to
You know you belong here

Chasing Streets, Chasing Strangers

In a sea of lights, in a jungle of concrete
We tend to get lost but we’re never getting bored
With pollution in our lungs, we laugh and we cough
Strip our faces off and change our names until we’re torn
Lovers or sisters, inseparable since we were born

And what strange things we say on a stranger’s day
With blue lips we bare our teeth, never in a need of heat
Ever so entertained with our little game
Not an ounce of shame when we lie, laugh, and cheat
Our little entertainment is the sweetest sort of treat

Equus

After All

I’d like to think you’re not the same as you were back then
But you’re still with him
I’d like to think that you’ve become a better person
But your person is growing dim

I’d like to think our paths could cross again someday
But you’re so far away

I’d like to think you’ve learned your lesson and that you’re regretful
And turning humble
And after all, I’d like to think you’re living a life quite successful
So, no more trouble
