Invaginate Heart

Squeeze me out tonight’s most favored dream
I spilled upon the parking lot of a CVS
None of my senses could collect themselves
Cab rides to the hotel were just a scheme
She promised to buy me a fifth but her reasons rarely change
We only erase all the manic scrawl
Of our, our invaginate hearts

Chip the tinsel from this mottled town
As if we’re not lonely apes sequined with superstition
Easing the tinnitus with a lit up screen
I searched a sequence in the ceiling until sundown
No fortune showed itself
We just ape what we think is sown
Deep in the meat of our, our invaginate hearts

Invaginate heart
Invaginate heart

Your candles taper into plastic flames
They throw your likeness on the walls that you tried to break
You know that heredity is stranger than you would think
Each upholstered phrase out in the lobby
Is imbued with gold but reasons always change
And my reasons always fray at the edges
Of an invaginate heart
