Restless

For a moment I lost myself
In this dense dark dream of development
For an instant I lost my mind
In a haze of irony, iron and infringement

Love is gained and love is lost
Heaving your world up and down in a breath
Its alright, I like to hike and slide
It’s the plateaus that bore me to death

I have an infatuation with honesty
It’s not that I’m such a good guy, honestly
It’s just so goddamn gorgeously gritty
Without it, there's nothing but pretense

For a moment I lost sight of my goals
And created new ones of epic proportions
That play out like a rich romantic novel
And would be a hell raising, gut busting gallivanting

Recently I can’t seem to be able
To get Europe, sex and alcohol off my mind
I’ve got a desperate need to explode into
Something ripe, loud and smooth

I need to get punched in the face
I need to hurt
Not for some masochistic pleasure
But because its so much better
Than loneliness
Or boredom

I can barely restrain myself
From running, jumping, dancing
Naked as I came, as I will go
This is life, this is ecstasy
Why put chains on it?
I want to drink, fuck, sing, laugh,
Love, write, raise a few good kids
And die
