Sunshine

[deathboy]

-V1--

well, I'd say 'good to see you'
but that's disingenuous
stretching a metaphor
tawdry and tenuous

bittersweet bipolar
sentiments centred
on you

and I'd tell you I hate you
but that's a strong word
and I'm big enough now
to begrudge the absurdity

tied up in telling a truth
to a terror
like you

boy, better believe
there's a bullet belonging
to all the deceivers
and doers of wrong

and everything ever suggested
about you
is true

but I'm not the deliverer
I'm just a messenger
mess with your mind
with the message i'm telling ya

when it comes due
the dude left with the debris
is you

-C---

I don't feel
low
anymore

since the day that you
skip skippety skipped your feet
out of my door

now i'm feeling my face warm
drinking the terminal sunshine

and I'm watching the rainfall
washing away the war crimes

-V2---

my love is a liquid
of zero viscosity
pour myself into you
flow with ferocity

all my tenacity tamed
by the beauty
of youth

my head was half empty
but now it's half full
reset your reciever
believe in the bull

shit, i'm no soldier
I love you, I told you
now, move

I know what you're thinking
cos I can read minds
It's nothing remarkable
do it all the time

sit in the city
and seek out the signals
of you

I forgive you your trespass
if you forgive mine
conscience and consequence
caught out of time

memories fade
let's forgive and forget
in the sunshine

the sunshine

-C---

I don't feel
low
anymore

since the day that you
skip skippety skipped your feet
out of my door

now i'm feeling my face warm
drinking the terminal sunshine

and I'm watching the rainfall
washing away the war crimes
