[Era Vulgaris] M.D.

That's the day I knew there was this entire life behind things, and... this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid...ever. American Beauty
Carpe Diem.
"Hypnotized"
So that's how you found me
Rain falling around me
Looking down at a worm
With a long way to go
The traffic was hissing by
And I was homesick
And I was high.
I was surrounded by a language
In which I could say only "Hello-"
And "Thank you very much-"
But you spoke so I could understand
And I drew a treasure map on your hand.
And you were no picnic
You were no prize
But you had just enough pathos
To keep me hypnotized.
The map led to an island
In a sea of store-bought dreams
Where soulless singers sang
Over beats built by machines.
And lovely girls were hovering
Above my head like gulls
With their long slender necks
And their delicate skulls.
And I was no picnic
I was no prize
But I had just enough sweetness
To keep you hypnotized.
So that's how you found me
Rain falling around me
Looking down at a worm
With a long way to go.
