Il Pipistrello- The Bat
29-01-20
this is no great illusion.
when i'm with you i'm looking for a ghost.
or invisible reasons
to fall out of love or run screaming from our home.
because we live in a house of mirrors.
we see our fears in everything:
our songs, faces and secondhand clothes.
but more and more we're suffering
not nobody, not a thousand beers
will keep us from feeling so all alone.
but you are what you love,
and not what loves you back.
that's why i'm here on your doorstep
pleading for you to take me back.
and the phone is a fine invention.
it allows me to talk endlessly to you
about nothing disguising my intentions,
which i'm afraid my friend are wildly untrue.
it's a sleight of hand, a white soul band,
the heart attacks i'm convinced i have
every moment upon waking.
to you i'm a symbol or a monument.
your rite of passage to fulfillment.
but i'm not yours for the talking.
but you are what you love
and not what loves you back.
i guess that's why you keep calling me back.
i'm fraudulent, a thief at best,
a coward who paints a bullshit canvas.
things that will never happen to me.
but at arm's length it's tim who said
"i'm good at it, i've mastered it.
avoiding everything."
but you are what you love, tim
and not what loves you back.
and i'm in love with illusions
so saw me in half.
i'm in love with tricks so
pull another rabbit out your hat.
One has to pay for kindness, but it’s tax free.
