All chips and wires
All resistors and diodes
All gears and levers
Moved around by servos
Tin Man
Dream if you can
About having the fragile heart of a man
Like a whining child, wishing they were grown
"If I was an adult, I could do anything I wanted to"
How is that working out?
Now that you're forty-two
And you know what it means when someone says
That they've got something they've gotta do
So is it to wish for the pain and mistakes
That come with owning the heart of a man

Yelling Your Head Off

Have you ever felt your personality hijack your intellect?
And before you know it is happening
You're standing alone in the middle of a crowd
Yelling your head off
Fighting for control
Knowing you are screaming the truth
But you're playing the fool
Have you ever felt your desire outstrip you inhibitions
And before you know it is happening
You're standing naked in the middle of a crowd
Dancing your ass off
Trying to free the truth
Knowing you are showing your beauty
You're still playing the fool

And the difference between your ideal self and your perceived self is the true measure of your esteem in the eyes of the only one who ever really mattered. It's you that has to sleep at night.

Come and Gone

Summertime, come and gone
How could I have ever lived so long?
I've got a constellation
Of mosquito bites on my leg
And long after it stops itching
I can not keep but scratching
Summertime, come and gone
How could I have ever lived so long?
I've got a rotting mess
Of ripe fruit molding on my table
And long after it stops stinking
I can not keep but thinking
Summertime, come and gone
How could I have ever lived so long?
I've got a hulking carcass
of a man clinging to my soul
And long after the soul stops giving
That big old body just keeps on living
Summertime
