The tears that you cry
and the money you buy,
smitten by and by
with a heated lie.
Your ends aligned,
your lines and ends.
Selfish crimes on
life depend.
And when you perform your life each day,
is it difficult to feel that it goes your way.
The lengths that we will go to to carry on.

You can't draw a circle
when you live inside a square.
If that square starts to close in
it won't leave your circle waiting there.
Your collective seeds you forgot to sow
and your palms of heart that failed to grow.
Hands that clutched, unsure of what,
and a light no longer shone.

The tears that you cry
and the money you buy,
smitten by and by
with a heated lie.
Your ends aligned,

Credit Hole

I used to have lots of money.
I used to go out all the time.
Never had to contemplate.
Yeah the balance was always fine.
Oh how I remember
that it was late in December
that I bought a gift for you
that I hoped that you would remember.
Now I'm saving for all time.
I dug myself a credit hole.
I used to have a 808
back at 935.
And though she never asked for it,
the pleasure was always mine.
Oh how I remember
that it was late in December
that I bought a gift for you
that I hoped that you would remember.
Now I'm saving for all time.
I dug myself a credit hole.
Oh how I regret
making you witness the working man wiping his working man sweat.
Dig yourself a credit hole.

Shakespeare

If looking liking move,
I would be blinded by the view.
Leslies, Lizzies, Leahs, Sues—
angels, every one you used.
Juliet—of course, she knows:
when it comes, it comes in throes.
And Lady C she knows it too,
but she's got nothing left to do.

If all the world's a stage,
I would be drowned from parts I've played.
Always worried 'bout the spread,
and being in above your head.
Viola knows the story well.
Sebastian also lived to tell.
But Olive is another case,
and Duke, he hides from his own face.
- - -
To be or not to be,
I've often been left questioning.
To lay me down to sleep, and
never ever after weep.
The Prince, he found his end, but
not before he got revenge.
Ophelia's bough would break,
maybe from grief or maybe fate.
