Made alive with laughter

life is messy, I told him

For to lose I could accept
But to surrender I just wept
And regretted this moment
oh that
I was the fool
I don't know where the sunbeams end
And the starlight begins
It's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life
It's all a mystery
'Cause I'm a man, not a boy
And there are things you can't avoid
You have to face them
When you're not prepared to face them
-Flaming Lips




A house of cards
A supple heart
Is not a place to dwell

There is only now
Tomorrow has to wait But know there's no backing out
This is gonna be reality
You can never dream it down
I have - no way
Of telling - the two - apart
Well I made amends
In the general sense
But the devil's in the details
And I know the cost
And I wanna stop
But I can't do it
I just can't do it
There was love I meant
There were accidents
So tell me which is which
Cause I just can't work it out
But for memory and clarity
We had better write it down
I have - no way
Of knowing - the truth - with time it dissolves
I put the past into the ground
I saw the future as a cloud
If there's still time to turn around
I'm going to
It's just one day I fell asleep
And now all day all night i dream
I am the first one I deceive
If I can make myself believe
The rest is easy
-Bright Eyes
