Introducing the Magic Man

Take a look and you'll see

He's got silver, gold, dollars,

and a few secrets he keeps

In exchange for what you need,

he'll take your soul

and your broken heart that bleeds

Poor child, losing your chance to grow old

Spread your story while you can

Tell the tale of the Magic Man

He'll back in 10 years

Don't shed any tears

He'll take you where you're meant to be

Oh honey, to hell, just wait and see

dripping pastel skies

streaked with pale pink

laughter echoes

more jokes follow

we're ethereal

as we shall stay

until the last of golden sunset

fades away

the light hits his eyes

like honey skies

from brown to sunshine whiskey

golden whispers and sunshine specks

glowing into my heart and my eyes

like his honey skies

Introducing the Magic Man

He can give you whatever you like

But you have to pay him

you can give him your psyche

equally enough

he'll take one of 5 things

but it isn't something

something like grandma's old rings

he'll take dollars

euros, sterling silver

seems simple enough

but he also needs your broken heart

he'll fix it right up

He'll fix it up

and sell it for a secret or two

then he'll bring you back

and give the secrets to you

spread around the secrets

tell the tale of the magic man

keep that tale in your heart

because you'll never see him again

one look at me

i love you too

three words

and they're all for you

five times I've tried

to get you to stay

6:07 and you're on your way

eight o'clock in this lonely old house

oh, look, it's 9 now

10 o'clock and they tell me

you aren't coming home

you left me alone

and now you're gone

butterfly fly away

my life ended in red lights

a drunk man, asleep at the wheel

a brother, a best friend, a funeral

handfuls of dirt thrown on the casket

maybe a few tears

I thought I'd live a hundred years

a butterfly with blue wings

a mockingbird on a gravestone

what a beautiful song it sings

a song of misery and sorrow

a song like there's no tomorrow

a life ended in red lights

reincarnated as a butterfly

the concept of infinty

larger than life

on and on forever

that's what they always say

but the opposite side is never explored

how small we are

compared to the infinity of the world

we're infinitesemal

smaller than ants are to us

we're that small in the grand scheme of things

so why explore the concet of infinity

it goes on and on, as we know

explore the concept of infintesemalism

how small does it go?

my hands are shaking

stepping forward, I look my mother in the eye

we're both about to cry

and she's shaking

shaking me

screaming how could you do this to me

you're the only daughter I've got

and I'm shaking

shaking with fear

fear of my mother

I knew what to do

but I couldn't leave my little brother

and he's shaking

he's shaking

trying to make me wake up

as blood flows from my wrist

all because my mother hates who I kiss

and the world is shaking

and shaking

and I'm seizing

my brother is screaming

the doctors running, trying to save me

but it's too late

and he's shaking

he's shaking

the doctor, he's shaking his head

I'm looking from above now

I flatlined

I can finally give my father a hug now

no longer shaking

Blue, Gold, Purple, Pink

I look up to the sky, that's all see

Night falling in from a hard day's work

Of lighting up my whole world

freckles on my face, burns on my shoulders

sunset's the only time I get to hold her

golden blonde hair falling across her face

just like that golden trace

of sun left in the sky

and it makes me want to cry

because she's mine

on the perfect golden day

purple, pink, gold, blue

that's what I see when I look at you
