Out the Door 01:22
Bored of lies he despised talk of self but he Wouldn't mind passing time in her Nothing lasts so talk of pasts seemed absurdity words don't mean but the thing that you heard the expectation killed all exhilaration the only way out was pure imagination Oh I have two legs they're made for walking sometimes I get tired of talking rangling and jangling wriggling his knees Bounding down the street he went following the leaves Oh sweet wind at my back carry me along I'm going this way too You can carry me till dawn My legs they shake so pick me up in your hands oh sweet wind at my back you're the only one that understands you keep on moving Moving always pressing on ahead if you're not moving You're dead and as the trees passed he felt like he was floating Wondering where he was wondering where he was going

Oh I knew this old tune heard it many a time under a full moon When you're old and on your own wanderings hows ya got so alone A man can get down on hisself and then you hear the dogs calling howling at that old moon make a man feel something n he a start bawling Singing, screaming Jesus help us somebody help us but don't you know the only one comings a dirty old mutt Don't you think? Don't you see? It's all just you & me Out in the wind, out with the bins You and that poor little doggy but don't be scared there's nothing there...

When you're walking alone back the way that you came Your thoughts drift to home yes it invades the brain He said she said everybody said something and they weren't even listening to the things being said In her head in your head everyone was bluffing But you can't leave by yourself even if you think you did Oh just keep on moping Oh what were you really hoping Someone is hearing something your saying Everybody knows and everybodys praying Don't think don't don't Don't don't think too much I don't I don't I don't know-no I don't know-no I don't I don't I don't know-no I don't know I know that you think you're made of sweet things but I've seen your insides and they look like mine The breaths come quick and the breaths come slow and the breath gets sick and well then don't you know You're bleeding on the ground You're bleeding on the ground Your blood is all around blood is all around You're bleeding out If you're gonna make me bleed I'd like to see some blood Do you really think we want to listen to what you say You don't really think we wanna think about you all day Do you ever hear the people? they are talking to you Don't you ever think that everybody think likes you do I know they they do I know you do And we try to deny the wondering why the wondering why But you'll never know And you'll never go You'll stay right where you are so don't think so hard

You know what to do When you know you cannot beat'em Back to the door that once was your only hope of freedom Needed courage walk thru it Well now you really need some The outside inside The inside out The outside inside Can get it out conspicuous ruses mild aggravations Fill in the blanks of your conversations Don't back up when you have come this far with me You need not lie for my sake if you're unhappy So he promised himself he'd be back here soon Out in the arms of the wind with the trees & the leaves & the moon But now the wind did not feel Quite as friendly, no And all his thoughts came rushing with him straight towards home He would have to say something But his brain screamed nothing nothing Guess it's goodbye, old friend But I'll come back someday again A creak and the door is open Solitarily hoped and hoping It'd be quick but the blood is curdled voices thundering into this world brain tries its problem solving feel as your minds dissolving now succumbing there's no running What are you becoming?

about

"In time each moment is, only in so far as it has effaced its father the preceding moment, to be again effaced just as quickly itself. Past and future (apart from the consequences of their content) are as empty and unreal as any dream; but present is only the boundary between the two, having neither existence nor duration."

- The World As Will and Representation by Arthur Schopenhauer
