Aren't You Vague?

Another night just falls
Kicked off the balcony
Shattered, frozen in time
You just repeat yourself
And hope it isn't mean
Could be the best mistake of your life

A heart that's full and terrified
Long work days, it's mirror time
Turning straight talk into
Rhymes that twist like limes
And sting your cuts like a porcupine
Who's burrowed down
With his book of names
Well,
Aren't you vague?

Oh now the sun's come out
A spyglass for broken things
No place left to hide
You pull the pillowcase
Powder blue and cream
Over spectral, blood-blank eyes

A head that's clouds and covering
Rain slants through the eastern wing
Turning plain speak into
Rhymes that ring like chimes
But the note just sours
At the starting line
Punch the clock
And count past eight
Well,
Aren't you vague?
Aren't you vague?

It's an impossible dream
When you're wrapped in the streams
Of a bottle-dark kiss that's fused to your lips
With the comet crash of a thunderslap
Just pealing its roar through a nighttime nap
It takes one simple cream
To suppress your dreams
With the best amongst us just quivering
In the frozen stare of a trust fund square
Who can stamp that check or let the ship wreck
Either way set
For an insurance claim
Eat your cellmate,
It's all the rage
Well,
Aren't you vague?
Aren't you vague?
Aren't you vague?
