Three Hundred Miles for Five Feet of Skin
These highway lines burn designs into my focused eyes eyes focused on a sight that blankets my mind a blanket of where only comfort resides This comfort, it's meaning, drowns my perception a perception so intriguing, I'm sinking in it's inception sinking into an origin of a place I call home The strings they wind into my view, playing a tune, a harmony or few a tune who's intentions are to woo woo a soul who can read between two Between two lies a smoke, a fag for a choke a choke suspended over a tick of time the time it takes to ride the line Lines they shape the parallel veins these veins they maneuver the cold black train a train that sails under the dark stared sky Stars, they ignite a path to use a path that invents images of a burning truth truth thats destiny was bare, only to lose This destiny, it's patentince, bonds with the rhetorical hands hands that have been welded with time time that flees, always leaving behind Flee, they do, these anamneses, from my vision vision that is now free from the dash's persistance a persistance that leads me back to a familiar embrace Three hundred miles for five feet of skin skin steady, waiting to say hi once again "Hi," he grins.
