Far From Fine

far from fine at the front door of (I don’t like this)
time to get to work son
push past the fog - it won’t last

there’s a view I want to show you
continue forward fella
you’re not alone on this road to Rome

a thousand years but a single day
when it’s lived this way

the perfect you
is always shining thru [ever shines thru]
the shell called you [we call “you”]

up ahead
whatcha expect
is what you’ll regret

to fall in Love with a nightmare
you pretend is an american dream
thru starts stops and fits
it slides sideways on you
you look around and shout (we’re thru)
so ya box it up
[buy/adopt/get/find] you a new pup

the vibes - they…
don’t hide
and can’t die
and are always inside
clever will usually carry you
thru nasty weather
without a sweater
but cruel will bury you
under the weight of a feather

upside down and inside out
on the railroad trax
boy ya gonna feel that smack
and when they find you
in the middle of the mess
a smiling lotus without a crack or speck
gigglin’ - whatcha expect...
