Break This Pace

I wanna line it up today Gotta bring myself to say that there’s so much here worth fighting for Can’t let this clutter block my door The lilies just stopped blooming The weather sifts right through me I’ve gotta break this pace before I lose what I’ve been proving And I complain about how I’m tired My eyes are always wired to red trucks screamin’ down the highway to put out the next fire I’ve got a timecard and a tip jar, six alarm clocks cursin’ in unison I gotta break this pace before I lose what I’ve been proving Now I’m staring straight up at the sky and fame No god to beg or blame I’m desirous of a life that has no age I take the trash out in the evenings Shimmy the tightrope ‘tween drunk and dreaming I gotta break this pace before I lose how I been breathing There’s a lot of lies to live inside There are twists and bills and broken ties I’m lucky when I can write to my own mind I got a penpal in Virginia shuckin’ corn and tendin’ tomatoes I can tell this life’s hard for her even in the sweet and salt of the summer She says, Lady, you gotta get away Lady, you gotta stay. We gotta hash it all out before we lose what we’ve been saying. If there’s one thing universal about these ups and downs, so personal I think it’s that we crave boredom the moment we’re forced to fight Maybe it’s Eastern, maybe commonplace Not resignation but a give and take The brilliance of a smile before it breaks.
