lyrics

Chicken Stock

I’m finding myself stuck deep in my shoes too tight for me today
To compensate for the squishing sounds when my feet just won’t delay.
I’m tripping and I’m tumbling upon my thoughts that point towards you.
Fore singing them out too soon may be a hasty thing to do.

I let my fingers do a little dance on top the plastic keys displayed with letters.
Picking up scraps and bits of that, trying to be light as a feather
Look at this. I found you crouching with your hair down over your shoulders.
You stand up with your eyes a-blaze. Acting out over all the others.

A mystery like this should be cracked open like an egg whether poached or fried.
You never know what you’ll find looking through the glass from the other side.
Feeling all the froggies jump, as the butterflies fly up and down. What am I doing here? Wishing I could smell your hair.
Just to be close to you. I can’t stop calling you. Oh! to be insane.

It may seem a bit suspicious, me carrying on this way.
It’s the only way to cool my engines down and get me through the day.

A trip like this can break you, or make you find reward or despair.
Either way it’s what I want, so I’ll just throw it up in the air.
Let the pieces fall on my body. Let their placement show the way.
To what in me needs tinkering with and what can be thrown away.

Look at this. I found a nice display. A mirror image once was lost.
Shrunken down from past delusions, tightly wrapped up in a box.
Poking inside I find myself as if locked in time and space
Finally spreading out, far beyond my body, to put a smile on your face.
