Excursion into Philosophy

I've seen into your future
and I can see the things that you'll do.
and I could never trust
you to disarm a bomb
cause your just gonna sit
and watch this kid blow up.
And its not because of me? Well if you say so.
Here's the chance that you have hunted,
to do the things you've always wanted.
Wear your clothes like you once did when
acquaintances were not a hundred
empty bottles in your bedroom,
shoved in corners to make room for
a twin frame where you've hosted many,
with blue sheets, you would trade it all.
A tree trunk for a twig
A tree trunk for a twig
and two weeks alone is all you have to dig.
I've seen into your future
and I can hear the things you haven't said.
I read it in the book
that you keep hidden from me.
You left it open when
I found you there asleep.
Two years almost to this day I
sat where we once sat like I was
visiting a grave, you told me
here in confidence the only
time that you got off is when your
brothers friends threw rocks at you and
forced you to eat dog shit and called
you names that you make your lovers
call you when they're fucking you. You
were 13 in 1992.
A tree trunk for a twig
A tree trunk for a twig
and two weeks alone is all you have to dig.
I can keep my eyes focused
on this square of light on the floor
I can't keep my mind off
the framed picture on the wall.
