Scorpio Rising

May 9, 2009

I’m old enough to know
that my stars just won’t let go

at this day and age i can see
that the world was meant for me
some people laugh at what you’re doing
they hold you in the sand
I’m having a hard time adjusting to these changes

I can see that your lips are moving
but i can’t hear what you’re saying

is it yes, or is it no
is it stop, or is it go
is it suck, or is it throw
is it me or am i just too slow

I’m young enough to think
that the world looks good in pink
but as far as i can see
that ain’t enough for me
some people hear at what you’re doing
they pull you by the strings
I’m having trouble taking things day by day

when i see you i see red and green
you’re like the biggest tree i’ve ever seen
but it cuts you down, down to size
the apple of my eye, is rotting on the ground

see the future burning eyes
but i don’t care what it’s saying
is it high or is it low
is it shrink or is it grow
is it the twister

I wrote this song while i was eating beans
now don’t you try to ask me what that means
it’s just like asking me to tell you my dreams
I would have told you long ago,
but now it seems you’re far away
here come the looney bin
come to take me away

You put a scar in my twisted face
in the yearbook i look out of place
I see my letter burning in your hand
it took me 25 years just to understand

blue is the color of my skin
blue is the color of my skin
blue is the color of my…

It is so easy to assume that the world is exactly as you see it. The reality is that we are all “a work in progress” and it is much easier to see others faults than our own.
