so-called chaos

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2007

Deadlines, meetings and contracts, all breached
D-days and structure responsibility

Have-to’s and need-to’s and get-to’s by three
Eleventh hours and upset employees

I want to be naked, running through the streets
I want to invite this so-called chaos, that you’d think I dare not be
I want to be weightless, flying through the air
I want to drop all these limitations and return to who I was meant to be

Heartburn and headaches and soon-to-be ulcers
Compulsive yearnings non-stop to please others

I want to be naked, running through the streets
I want to invite this so-called chaos, that you’d think I dare not be
I want to be weightless, flying through the air
I want to drop all these limitations at the shoes upon my feet

All wont be lost if I’m governed by my own uniqueness
If stop lights won’t work, I’ll get home sound and safe regardless
Won’t deem me had if I’m led by my own rulelessness
My fire wont quell and I’ll be harm-free and distressless
Trust me

Line towing, and helping, expectations up-to living
Inside box obeying, inside line cutting

I want to be naked, running through the streets
I want to invite this so-called chaos, that you’d think I dare not be
I want to be weightless, flying through the air
I want to drop all these limitations at the shoes upon my feet
I want to be naked, running through the streets
I want to invite this so-called chaos, that you’d think I dare not be
I want to be weightless, flying through the air
I want to drop all these limitations and return to who I was meant to be

everything

I can be an asshole of the grandest kind
I can withold like it’s going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby
And you’ve never met anyone
who’s as negative as I am sometimes

I am the wisest woman you’ve ever met
I’m the kindest soul with whom you’ve connected
I have the bravest heart that you’ve ever seen
And you’ve never met anyone
who’s as positive as I am sometimes

You see everything
You see every part
You see all my light
And you love my dark
You dig everything
Of which I’m ashamed
There’s not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here

I blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My passive agressiveness can be devistating
I’m terrified and mistrusting
And you’ve never met anyone
who’s as closed down as I am sometimes

You see everything
You see every part
You see all my light
And you love my dark
You dig everything
Of which I’m ashamed
There’s not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here

What I resist, persists, and speaks louder than I know
What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I go

I am the funniest woman that you’ve ever known
I am the dullest woman that you’ve ever known
I am the most gorgeous woman that you’ve ever known
And you’ve never met anyone
Who’s as everything as I am sometimes

You see everything
You see every part
You see all my light
And you love my dark
You dig everything
Of which I’m ashamed
There’s not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here
And you’re still here
And you’re still here
And you’re still here
