Boy King Blues

walking into paradise for just one day
nothing left to dream about
nothing left to say
with the ocean for my backyard
with my pavement in the sky
with our encyclopedic hearts
beaming light behind our eyes

pursuing blue epiphanies against the grain
nothing left to dream about
nothing left but rain
drifting seaside for our palace
drifting soil in the stars
drifting my lips to your lips
wondering if we’ll go that far

wishing for a way to waste our time
nothing left to write about
nothing left to wish
