In a Musical Way


I want a life as bright as these chords I play
I want to live my life in a musical way--
Birds singing, a milkman whistling, a fat happy maid
Pancake-flipping oh yeah

I go to work against reality
Battling the world with my bare feelings
My heart never leads me astray
Just as long as I continue singing

I'm playing the part of an underachiever
In an out of town run that goes on forever
You could be the disaffected lover
Whose heart swells on an orchestra cue

Dancing our way past the fear
That anything wonderful's not real
Harmonizing on a melody
That worms its way into your dreams

Spotlights, pink tights, alcoholics
Costume, scenery, nervous breakdowns 
We're switching scenes like hand puppets
Up until the curtain comes down

Non-Binaries

Non-Binaries never wrong nor right  neither black nor white  always poor framing  truth escapes while waiting    you I can’t deny I can’t explain “I” there’s another dimension  we’re always missing    easy solutions feel good  crushing doubts with boots  if nature only gave us straight lines  if god was on our side    it’s never green nor orange  look to the forests  subtleties you miss  haunt dreams in an embrace    not those ones and oh’s  didn’t write the code  swallowing contradictions  before they explode
