lyrics

halfway to reality. and halfway to again. again and again. never reach the mark. the waltzing candle’s flame will never touch me. halfway to (“oh weary feet”), but still a rose is etched in stone. symbols squeezed of liquid gold upon a tombstone where a Zen dog’s mouthing “no no no.” just like jelly. i crush the numbers in my palm. i’m munching on a cracker. and a flask of poison words is shrined beneath the bed. i sense the smell of oysters, bite my lip, and then stay silent. halfway in the strychnine egg. “hold your tongue, that you may get there,” i whisper secretly to my other hand. you leapfrog towards infinity. build your kingdom in the quicksand. if you could touch me, you would know me. i can wait forever, and for now, i’ll laugh in silence.
