I'm a Breeze

from Hope? by DRTYUNCL

/

lyrics

These days I ain't got much but nothin' left to say
If you haven' related to my cynical ways
You won't today. I'm stockpilin' change
Confusing coins for what's needed in my brain
Can't tell if its strange to find love in the pain
I use to abuse these clouds as they entertain
She said it's a shame to be so disgusted with fame
That I'm afraid of my own music and where it takes me
Break me on the steam on an embered stake
And forget to remember the breeze I've claimed
A hot wind saturates unwanted sin
As it sprawls across a land of lost hymns
Him, or you, or ma'am or sir
Doesn't matter they're just nouns we stick between verbs
And when they become plural you lose your world
Or at least the atmosphere when she becomes her
I haven't heard a kind word over the landscape
Since the cold front packed up and floated away
Wait, I thought as the temperatures rose
I'm not used to bein' alone, the time froze
And over the years I've melted back from that fear
As my current became heavier with each tear
As weird as it is, I grew to love
The moisture in the air, I mean you can't really hug
What you can't even see, the blind eyes turned to me
Turned up the steam with each pass of the breeze
Passively the aggression in me
Aggravated the molecules in my passionless being
So the next time you see what may only seem
To be the effects of two storm cells connecting
Reject me when I attempt to pass through
Or you'll let this hot wind engulf you too
Guess who? Yea, its me
The real reason its so uncomfortable to breathe
Outside the patio past the porch you see
I bet you used to think it was a beautiful thing
So naive, but that's how its gotta be
If you want your mind enchanted with lobotomy
Two ice picks chiseled into your odyssey
But regardless of the pain your wind'll never be as hot as me
Or even up to speed with the pace I plant seeds
Across the landscape of dry grass and high weeds
Find me puttin' movement into palm trees
On my to the sea which really shouldn't seem too lonely
But I got the pace of an ocean breeze
I'm not used to this land enclosing me
Another poor me eats away at the glass
I've poured again to distance myself from the past
I attract masses of travelers on vacation
I'm the kind of breeze they don't plan to stay with
To get the basics out of the way, I'll say this
I'll float into a hurricane before I play this
Shameless game known as "who's the prey"
I'm a warm breeze, your cardio's too cold to stay
The frigid pumps away, not into me
I'm a warm breeze lookin' to settle in a calm stream
So don't talk to me when you see me at the bar
You may have heard my music or think I'm a star
Or maybe I'm just a guy lookin' down on his luck
And maybe you're just drunk lookin' for a quick fuck
I refuse to be stuck in that fuckin' rotation
And wake up hungover and ashamed at a Day's Inn
Goddamnit be patient, this shit is discusting
Since when did a dick become a piece of lunch meat?
Since when did I say you could kiss my shit or touch me?
Since when did having a twat qualify you to fuck me?
You've never even hugged me, but you're hangin' on my shirt
Tellin' me nasty shit that I'll tell my friends at work
And you probably wonder why you got no guy in your life
And tomorrow you'll put back on your fuck me eyes
And you'll wake up probably pretend to be surprised
That the guy you fucked last night left with the sunrise
And surprise...You'll see me back at the bar
Just another lonely breeze calloused by life's scars
We probably look the same, I mean, I didn't float far
But there's one difference
You'll never know who the fuck you are
