The dust in our house


You been away a long time that
Our home got dusty…

There is dust all through this house
From all the years you been gone
And there is dust in the kitchen
From all the food that went to rot

Cover your mouth

There is dust in the tub
From all the years you didn’t bathe
And there is dust on the clock
From all the years that time stopped

Oh you don’t know

There is even dust in the sheets
From all the years you didn’t sleep
And there is dust in the windows
From all the years the sun didn’t rise

For a heart broke a thousand times
Before I let the sun shine

So if you must
Come in and dust

But just know
No matter how good you clean
You can never truly get rid of the dust in our house

Ph.D

gotta be the first boy in
that’s me
never late
no, never, couldn’t be me?
cuz I want to be better than what you see me
make me out to be
always dissing me
cuz you got a Ph.D
Ph.D?
more like STD
stereotype dick
fucking the cool out of everybody
spreading labels 
chicks with feathers
hippies
guys like me
hipsters
cuz we shop at outfitters
but you’re just a bitter
know it all bitch
fucking book smart bitch
but I’m fucking street smart bitch
and I know these fucking streets
like day and night
while you are only ever here by light
but bitch step into the shadows
and let’s see how smart you are
let’s see you write on walls
tell them ghetto boys how hardcore you are
call them hipsters
call them hippies
wanna see them get pissy?
piss on you
fuck you too
gang bang
ying yang 
all the way to china town
take out bag
truck stop
body parts
fucking bitch is dead by brunch  
but gotta be the first boy in
that’s me
never late
no, never, couldn’t be me?
Ph.D

Alternate ending

Just another day
In a peaceful place
Where the sky doesn’t rain
Until you have a bad day

Well I had a bad day
Maybe one too many days
And now I’m stuck in a hallway
Cause it started to rain  

A once bright lit way
Now is a dark dim cage
You want out
And I want out

But that’s not a way
You can say your part
Maybe apology with heart
Until your heart stops

Then you say
My sweet angel
What have you done?
And I say
Everyone has an alternate ending
And this was mine

Run with it

I used to know a girl
Just a little pretty girl
With brown hair and brown eyes
She used to say things like hi and you look fine
One day she told me a lie
She told me she loved me and didn’t know why
Then she ran off with a guy and told me goodbye
With a tear in her eye she said tell someone a lie
Just a little white lie
One that couldn’t hurt a fly
Just smile and have fun with it
Now run with it
And don’t say a goodbye

So I told you a lie
Just a little white lie
One that couldn’t hurt a fly
So small and unimportant you didn’t even notice it go by
Day after day you were more and more in a daze
Wrapped around my little white lie
It will make you want to die if you ever knew the truth
So I lie and I lie until your life was a big lie
And just when you thought I was a nice guy
Just a nice guy with brown hair and brown eyes
I tell you a lie

I ran with it
I stretch it out as far as I could
Stretched it over you, under you, around you, until the lie was you
I was the lie and you were the truth
And then she said goodbye to you.
