Rolling Rooms
There are no demands, requests, deadlines,
it's all in my head
there are no weights on my shoulders
pressing me into the earth
heavy weights in the heart
drag you down
but all the voice and tongue of it
all in the head
eyes can be a million places
in and out of time
in and out of bed
but all the views are veil-covered
by who you are - no
sight is clean, untainted
the world we know
is all in the head
and no two worlds are the same
the shifting view
the pressing weight of years
is all we have
skinblade drownwave
rockrolling no save redeye
unsainted
we all hold the gun
suitcases packed with dearth.
