Dirty Fun

-Oedipus

Ghosts

I didn't think I would miss being single.
Fuck.


-Oedipus

Heavier Things

I called because I just need to feel you on the line.
Don't hang up this time.

But it's just a line.
A silly old line,
That can be cut with a simple pair of scissors.
And it seems to me, that I'm no longer using scissors
To cut your lies anymore.


-Oedipus

All Over

'We share the same sadness.
Split screen sadness.'

I didn't think it'd work like this.
Then again, I didn't think.


-Oedipus

Cobra

'Girl I've been all over the world
Looking for you.
And if you listen, you can hear me through the radio
In that bright, white noise.
What I've been missing in my life,
What I've been dreaming of,
You'd be that girl,
You're that girl.'


-Oedipus

Little Whites

Me?

Well I'm happy.
And everything's okay.
Just give me a minute to compose myself.

But then again,
I've never been known to lie.
Huh, funny you probably won't pick it up.
I guess I'm just good at that stuff.


-Oedipus

Eight

'The truth will set you free.'

Apparently.
But the only thing that will be set free,
Will be my truths.

Not that I've ever really thought about a price to put on them.


-Oedipus

Bones

'I'd do anything just to feel my toes.'

It's funny, when we think that this is everything we know.
And when we come to the end, we realise we weren't even scratching the surface.
There is so much to do
To see
To feel and hear.

And some days it overwhelms me,
Giving me a pain in my chest that I'm struggling to escape from.
An escape, I would love you to come
An escape forever, would be what I need.

But I'm just not ready to go to another world
I'm not ready to be alone.
I'm not ready for a lot of things
But the more I wait, the more time I waste.
