Of Royalty

Come to me, peace of mind, come

You're buried treasure under the streets

You're not whiskey breathe, or cigarettes

You're nowhere to be seen

Your fascination is a tragic tale

A thousand colors but all shades of grey

Diving in, up to your nose again

There's nothing more to contemplate


Lemon scented dust on your desk

You know you once were queen

Your cobwebs, looming again

Your majesty remains to be seen

Here I am, so angry and mean

The man in me is gasoline

Summer days, I melt away

In the pages of a magazine


I've got a rifle arched down where I may blow a hole

And in I lay some seeds

There's no bayonet, I've got no cause for it

I'm only seeking peace

I'm painting up my ghostly soul

I let the world burn it still

The ocean in my heart, its tide has come apart

The man I've been has been ripped within

placed away on the windowsill
