03.07.11 fall out


fall out


i hold nothing else
you who take better care of me
than i take of myself
selfish and wicked i've got it all
bold and farsighted
no cause for complacency as i recall

and how will i find you
when the bright lights come our way
and will we survive
when the fallout breaks the day
and what will i have left
that can't be taken away
with the darkening prospects unnameable objects
supplanting the quiet removing the context

and how can i be sure that we won't fade

if we were born to end in disaster
let me make the moves and bury into you
as the darkness falls faster
and were you inclined to choose symmetry
instead of me
well i would fare fine
though aimless inside
