Fields + Treadmills

you feel that wind
from time to time
and your heart stops
or your heart breaks
that strecth coils you
sparks your flare and
yup yup
tells you that you can do
fucking anything

plight won't doze off
she's too steady
and awake
but she's a lush,
so fool her up on charm,
make her think your
smile
is whiskey
she'll take you out of her hold
for a while,
and night can be your slice of bread
when your heart stops
or your heart breaks

think
swallow the trampled fields,
where the football games got played
and you felt that wind
that was a time
that was a time

don't break your mistakes
coddle them in jars
just don't let them out
or you'll be broken,
and lazy

kiss futures
puff up in the chest area
pretty up yer eyes
and you'll
feel that wind
from time to time
as your heart stops
and your heart breaks
