M.T.A.
(Magnificent Tuesday Afternoon)(Mind Trip Anthem)
Head nestled on a dark angel's shoulder
While the lights of moments past dance
In their red and green masks
Vibrant
Sexual
In the darkness of shadowed regret.
How erotic
Trouble stains his face
A new hooker's kiss
Scarlet stains of her lipstick
Thick with honey.
Tragedy
Comedy
What's the difference?
Wingless birds and winged rats
Send me on my way tonight (this violent morning).
Head rested on a filthy window
This bitch just took me for a ride
But now she has a new energy
And it feels so strangely
Beautiful
On a D-Train at 3.A.M.
And I'm on my way home.
