streaming beaming gleaming words float up...catching on the stars...forget to say forgive me and the vortex will gobble you up....words and all...all the dreams all the schemes all the broken bones you threw this lap dog...they got caught in my throat...raking along...slashing me up...on the way down...down...down...gravity can get you down man...sliding all the way to hell in that pretty yellow basket...yellow yellow yellow is the color of vincents house...yellow is the color of friendhsip...but it was a drag for him...a drag for me and pushing us over the edge...over the edge...the gravity of it getting me down...vincent loved paul big...i love you big...doesnt matter...pay those dues...stop those dreams...no future...no past...now is just one breath lined up after another...no smiles...you took your smiles away...so i got to live in the now...they say i will be happy...these are just growing pains...transitional birth...but it is boring and tedious...i am just doing time...life is a prison and the walls of this apartment are closing in...no writing on the wall to read...all that is born here dies...still born...silent...dreamless....without dreams how can you see...for the world is a dream...without dreams all there is is dark skies...no stars...no stars to anchor to...and you will just float away...like vincent did...like i am...got to get me some new dreams vincent...you keep tossing me signs...i hear you vincent...isnt that ironic...you toss me a handful of stars and i tell you i hear you...i know...i know...it is all making sense vincent...the dance of healing...the sky of stars...the silence...the wounded warrior...the words...the lack of words...the punishment for simply being an artist in a world so brutish and childish at times it scratches along the mind like fingernails on the chalkboard...but i see it vincent...in the stars...i see it...the message...i know vincent...i know...i will pay close attention...take that rope and tie it off to the stars...so i dont float away...just looking for some hope vincent...hope gravity doesnt get me down vincent...i get it i get vincent...i get it...
