Walking takes time
time from your life
standing or moving
it all ticks away
the best things are there hidden between
what we have given and what we have seen
need is opinion
want is a must
freed from dominion
silver won't rust
the best way to get a girl down at your side
is to tell her sweet secrets and suckle her pride
the best way to see ghosts is to travel at night
darkened and wishing the mind bruised from this fight
the best way to run is to pass out from speeding
til the point you are dropped and knees are left bleeding
the best way to lie is to often pretend
so much so that you will never offend
the best way to kill is to have been killed before
over and over again from the same stupid whore
the best inspiration comes after you're halted
after the losing and red mark lined from faulting
the best words of forgiveness are silently heard
choking the heart, anger bleeding and stirred
the best silence is all silence and too much for you
never speak a word again and that I will do
the best songs are slow songs that clutter and kill
everything you've ever stood for and everything you will
the best defense is to consume and devour
smoking and choking from red glowing power
the best hit is from behind when advantage is walking
when struck by reaction and from all of their talking
the best parents are bad parents that let you drink venom
until off comes your head and with it your denim
the best human beings are friends of The Giver
Old, and demeaning His memories make shiver
the best way to cry is when sitting alone
under the pillows of your own ruined throne
the the best way to make someone turn and look away
is to stare straight at them when walking their way
the best way to smile is to bite at your tongues
walking under ladders when you fell off the rungs
The worst way to live is to stand still and be
everything else but not anything to me
everyday I see you, the people all lost
half assed and lazy and clothes even half washed
wake your asses up and be nice and be real
what the fuck is your problem what the fuck is your deal
I'm the best invention since the adaption of the wheel
I'm a thief and a menace and I often steal
I'm a bad person wrapped up in a good person's soul
Tryrantic and Humble, Diamond and Coal
Showboat and Ghandi, Happy to sing
Troubled and sad and used to the sting
I am the best person that lives in my body
i dont know about you but my grave isnt soddy
but one thing is certain the poison you drink
will be the last thing you see when your ship starts to sink
