You Rock, Rock - The Riot Before

Send «You Rock, Rock» Ringtone to Cell Phone

Let’s jump from five story windows holding tight to black garbage bags

Let’s stare in the face of all physics deny the laws and turn our backs

Capture and cage all the fire that engulfs entire forests

Bottle and swallow it down until it fuels every inch of our chests

You’ll know the speed with which we live

Yesterday was a half empty glass filled with a curious substance I should

Have left alone on the shelf inside the parts of myself that I avoid

Woke up today with the sunrise through the blinds and an ocean between where I stood

Just a few hours before I ran and I ignored the world

I’ll live in the picture on the wall in the moment that never exists

I’ll be in the day dream that repeats a scene that I always forget

Walking the streets of the city at night feeling warm in my coat

My legs will never grow tired the roads will never lead me home

I’ll always feel safer alone

Last night I dreamt of gasoline

Of leaping off of everything

With the hope that this mountain would move

From the air in my lungs

Today I woke desiring

To leave these metaphors and similes

And I would scream aloud
