Screw the people who break us down so much, that we become senseless and open If that’s an opportunity, damn, love, just consider me your token Let’s strip the truth of all its beauty
Everyone is sun burnt and extremely tired, But we have to make sure the next act is on fire.   Yes, they are just performers on stage, Simply letting go of their built up rage.

The hot sun beats down on my neck this sticky sweet popsicle heat. My destination is still blocks away My mouth and nose are dry and my shirt clings to me with sweat. I can see the park now

Tonight is encroaching  Right above the yellow sunlight  Take me to your moment  Of revelation in this moon light    I want to demonize the wind  Finish the mystery within
