Docent

I hold no point of view
And I’ve been lacking something new
I just need a guide
I need a decent docent to walk me through life
Maybe no one holds the path
And my potential’s left untapped
The plan’s in disarray
I need a decent docent to show me my way
If the foggy road was clear
Earth was circle, not a sphere
It wouldn’t matter what occurs
Will you be my docent or can I be yours?

The Late Bloomer

I’ve only found
Nothing ever goes right
The first time around
And there’s no progress in sight
My feet touch ground yet my instinct’s to crawl
It’s protocol
I guess I know it’s not too smart to compare but
My hand is forced because I’m trailing the field
How can I prove that I am more than a haircut?
How do I know when my fate has been sealed?
And as the debt gets bigger
A deeper part of me gets the picture
Meanwhile the gap grows wider
I sacrifice my moral fiber
Sometimes, sometimes you have to pull the lever
I missed my cue but better late than never
I cannot call myself a finished product
I stare at the clock and wonder when I’ll be whole
How could I possibly defend all my conduct?
How long should I relinquish control?
And as the debt gets bigger
A deeper part of me gets the picture
Meanwhile the gap grows wider
I sacrifice my moral fiber
Sometimes, sometimes you have to clip the tether
I missed my cue but better late than never
As the divide gets longer
I wonder what feats I still could conquer
Meanwhile the wall grows higher
My shoulder angel’s a big fat liar
Sometimes, sometimes you must ignore the tremor
I took some time but better late than never

Dawn breaks
There’s no one around me
There’s no one I tell what I’ve seen
Gadzooks
They’re in cahoots
Our foes found a go-between
We’re so obtuse
A turncoat’s been set loose
And we’re just here twiddling our thumbs
With a sleight of hand
The chain of command
Bumbles as it succumbs
We’re still here by God’s grace
But another one eats their gun to escape
The buzzwords, the hot takes
Another one comes undone on the front page
Ride the brakes, ride the brakes
Modern evil changes the stakes
We still make the same mistake
Trust the inkling
And don’t play favorites
The ground is sinking
The walls are caving in
There’s been a leak
And we have something concrete
But the answer’s encased in glass
Egad!
Maybe the intel was bad
They’re betting with fiat cash
We’re still here by God’s grace
But another one eats their gun to escape
The buzzwords, the hot takes
Another one comes undone on the front page
Ride the brakes, ride the brakes
Modern evil changes the stakes
We still make the same mistake
Now a mole has infiltrated the place
Ride the brakes, ride the brakes
Modern evil changes the stakes
Ride the brakes, ride the brakes
Modern evil changes the stakes
Modern evil changes the stakes
Modern evil changes the stakes

Designer Drugs

Luckily I lost my sentience today
My hinges loosen, the edge melts away
I am still flying, just not in the sky
‘Cause I found a new way to get high
If Rome is burning it’s nobody’s fault
A running start comes to a screeching halt
Things are okay ‘cause there’s nowhere to run
They found a new hole on the sun
If you’re lost in the shuffle,
I’m crossing the picket line
A customized way to die
If you seek a new kind of buzz
Find finer designer drugs
Find a new way to get high
Conjure a wish from a fallen eyelash
Just flip a switch and you’ll find a match
Closer inspection just muddles the path
So find a new way to detach
If you’re lost in the shuffle
I'm past the horizon line
A paradise you can buy
If you seek a new kind of buzz
Find the designer drugs
Find a new way to get high
Find a new way to get high
