R.E.M. - Blue

Yellow circus left the stakes a broken ropes world's useless mug
The ties that bind, ha ha
I can be bad poet
Street poet
Shit poet
Kind poet too

Subway
Almost 4AM
Halloween night
Had enough to drink to make my own party
All my fellow writers in half costume, half asleep
Half silly, gone to seed

I don't mark my time with dates, holidays
faded wisdom, locked karma holders
Convenient

I am made by my times
I am a creation of now
Shaken with the cracks and crevices
I'm not giving up easy
I will not fold
I don't have much
But what I have is gold

I saw your face

I sing in platinum
I dress in brass
I eat in zinc
Let it pass

Compare a toast
I like that
I understand courage
I still roll with the shout of a character I was married to today
I try to see outside myself
I understand the eyes
Excuse all the highs
Sorry
I am sorry
Ha ha

I like you, love you, every coast of you
I've seen your eddies and tides and hurricanes and cyclones
Low ebb tide and high, full moon
Up close and distant
I read you
Look, the sky, the sea, the ocean, the sun, the moon
Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue blue, blue, blue, blue, blue
Naked and blue

Breathing with you Touch Change Shift Allow air
Window open Drift Drift away Into now

I want Whitman proud Patti Lee proud
My brothers proud My sisters proud
I want me I want it all I want sensational Irresistible

This is my time and I am thrilled to be alive

Living Blessed I understand

Twentieth century
Collapse Into Now

Cinderella boy
You've lost your shoe

Cinderella boy
Your coach awaits

A sun makes shadows
All over your face
As you sit
Naked and blue
Into me
Yellow circus left the stakes a broken ropes world's useless mug
The ties that bind, ha ha
I can be bad poet
Street poet
Shit poet
Kind poet too
