Same Shit, Different Town

Bad decisions,
Lust, lies and broken hearts,
don't comprehend thousand mile journeys.
Hard lessons not learned,
Travel faster then,
Planes can fly.
Mistakes made a mile down
can't be fixed a mile up.
Escape was the right answer...
to the wrong riddle.
Baggage travels.



Rumors

Did I shave my legs for this?
A wanton desicration of hair
for the sake of shit
that never happened.
Cover up those blemishes
of imperfection
to create the image
of knowing what I'm doing.

Did I really shave my legs for this?
Sitting at a bar stool,
throwing 'em back
to smooth over social interations.
Talking about meaningless BS
making it sound important.

Why did I shave my legs for this?
Staring at a sterile ceiling,
one bed per person.
All the false artistry in the world
can't change the fact,
I WENT HOME ALONE!
