Artificial Evening

By Time (CO)

On Depressed Joy

Thumbnail

Staring in the wounded mirror for my soul I search

Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt

I wish you were here, I wrote your name in the mirror

There's 2 eyes in your name I dotted them with tears

And I hope you see it in the morning when you take a shower

Just so you know, I'm here and not a coward

I can walk through walls but I can't walk with you

So what's the point of magic if I can't talk to you?

I used to want to fly away up into the stars

Now I just want to pick you up in my car

Cuz when you're in the sky the city looks like a galaxy

I always want the opposite, contradictions balance me

Hope dies last, thesе machines keep me breathing

And don't think I can't hеar you when you visit every evening

Everything was beautiful

I'm talking to ghosts again

Everything was beautiful

So it goes without you here

I wrote this all on your mirror, take it for what it's worth

Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt

They say no art is possible without a dance with death

I was tap dancing in your attic while your paintbrush wept

I'm drinking dead champagne waiting for the saucers to come

He said what's death but a violet light and a hum?

Am I in a coma or an alien's zoo?

I'm no longer a man just a broken kite that flew

Reading books by Kilgore Trout that I got from Billy Pilgrim

Is this a hospital gown or a jacket from a dead civilian?

So it goes they built 5 slaughterhouses all in a row

So it goes say it 106 times so they know

Darwin said my corpse would be an improvement

But ask me if I'm alive, watch my toes for movement

They got me hopped on on time travel and morphine

Damocles above my head, watch me dodge it as the sword swings

Dead to the world but not actually dead

Now I understand there's that are fates worse than death

Let's hide under the covers and make an artificial evening

Even if that means by tomorrow you're leaving

I'm not really in a coma, it's more of a cocoon

So I could come back and be better to you

When we are, we are, we are

When we are, we are, we are

When we are, we are, we are

I'm talking to ghosts again
