streamers of rose youth

enough lights to fill the world

drowning sorrows in glass bottles

we laugh at our madness. 


when we sleep the world shuts off

but the sheep never stop their dance

counting to oblivion 

in hopes to find something—

that has an answer.


we're young and reckless

heard it before

all we've been able to debunk

figure out in a universe of questions

is that the bottle is never empty

and the car is always on

so we'll drive through every ghost town

stare at the stars until our eyes turn white


we think that maybe 

if we look hard enough

we'll find something to live for

we think 

that if we see the ghosts

the ones inside of us

will disappear.
