| TWENTIETH CENTURY DREAM REMIX Holding the cat Holding my cat So I’ve made my peace Do you think that makes sense? I did not make peace Just sitting on a meaningless afternoon petting my cat What do you know now? Immaturity was too strong Just like the universe is made wrong Immaturity was too strong Just like the universe is made wrong So wrong I did not make peace Sitting on the couch On some 1995 afternoon petting my love My cat who does not understand but who responds So I was a part of everything Immaturity was too strong So I was a part The universe is made wrong 1995 Out of school prematurely Out of my body naturally I am now dreaming of school Of adult school I am dreaming of school now Of adult school A depression so big that you can’t grow A tension so potent that you don’t want attention Holding my cat Holding the cat My cat in my hands I was young, he was young And so were you 1995 Mike Horner Mike Horner will forever look like a school teacher 1995 I was painfully alive My body was a block of frustrated love But there was so much anger I would have never fed the doves Unless they were as disappointed as I was and inside their bodies was a nerve tingling rage 1995 Everything moves And it’s alive A nerve tingling rage And it’s alive A nerve tingling rage And it is alive Immaturity was too strong It makes me believe That the universe is made wrong My tension and anxiety induced immaturity Makes me believe That the universe is made wrong So my heart So my mind are wrong And my breathing feels wrong So my mind and heart are wrong And my breathing feels wrong Mike Horner you have no idea how much visions of you matter In these times of terror Mike Horner you have no idea how much my soul would like to inhabit Your body Just for a night back in these remote times when I was floating higher and higher above reason And only flesh could perhaps have cured me of my bizarre condition The universe is made wrong So my mind and heart are wrong And my breathing feels wrong ©2009 Jerome Lebel |
