rambling at 3am...i forgot my bedtime again

[livemusicny]

just a one second turn around
facing the ground
all the cars passing by at the speed of light
i forgot what i thought
and remembered what i knew
out of all the wrong places
came something true
standing at the edge of the top of an empire
toes grasping the air
a mosquito net lost its uses
but i don't care
i'm free
with a choice
an abosolute voice
not a compromise
but a real loud noise
i couldn't live through without being scarred
and the scars we love are the scars that heal
so i make it the one that will let me feel
and less than one second i took the wheel
180 degrees from my head to my feet
i knew what it took to get on my knees
i was given control by surrendering control
an ignorant soul for a knowing soul
a ten foot pole for a ten foot pole
it's all the same until the attitude's changed
and if it rains i'd rather enjoy the rain
there is nothing to lose by losing
failure is not present in a state of learning
i've lost a game that never mattered
a game i used to win
but i know now
i never one
love is the only choice that wins
and love is where the winning begins
so i sit by and smile
while you cringe your face
trying to figure out the human race
i'm dancing above
i've lost interest below
and my face has got nothing to show
we've created a world where's the pool's going dry
and we can't see shit while we're digging all night
my friend it's about time you lay down next to me
and watched the stars.
