Alien Days

Sometimes the windows combine with the seams
In a way
That twitches on
A peak at the place
Where the spirit was slain
Hey!
One foot leads to another
Nights for sleep, blue curtains, covers
Sequins in the eyes
That’s a fine time to dine
Divine who’s circling
Feeding the cards to the midwives
Love those alien days
The nonstop alien days
Ooh, the alien days
Must’ve skipped the ship and joined the team
For a ride
A couple hours to learn the controls
And commandeer both my eyes
Hey!
Be quick dear, times are uncertain
One month crawling, next year blur
Decades in the drain
Monograms on the brain
Decide what’s working
And what’s moved on to the last phase
The floodgate alien days
I love those alien days
Ooh, the alien days
When the peels are down
It feels like traveling in style
You don’t need wings to hover
Forty ton stones for a mile
And in the summer, virgin visions
Mindless humming
Numbers can’t decide
If the day’s supposed to smile
Today we find infinite ways it could be
Any worse
It’s a blessing and it’s also a curse
Those days have taught me everything I know
How to catch a feeling
And when to let it go
How all the scheming, soulless creatures
Can’t find dreamer’s honey in the hive
If it’s right beneath their nose
And when the light is new
The sky shows trembling cartoons
You don’t need smoke to cover
Most of the world in a gloom
But here comes racer number 7
Watch my fingers
Ripping out the lines
If it looks like we could lose
If it looks like we could lose
If it looks like we could lose
