Aah, that was it.

you look like an angel,
your eyes are blind, hear not my screams
lifting me to clear blue skies
drop on my head, breaking my neck and my
dreamings are oozing out of my skull,
into your hands,
cupfuls of handfuls of
imaginations and loving.
You look like an angel I used to know.
standing over me dangling a string and
catching my eyes in your snare,
caving me in, inside your palms.
I put on a dress for you
made of cement and glass and barbed wire
a sign says "KEEP OUT" but you're to know better
why aren't you coming? why aren't you coming?
after all my fondest of invitations,
you're superman: break through the walls
like you did last night, my fever dreams took off.
You look like superman,
this guy I knew.
I've been waiting for you for a long time.
The windows are crashing, the balcony is falling,
the cars are crushed, street lights flickering
(they just went out and)
my oven won't finish cooking dinner.
Where did my superman go?
You look like the angel from my falsities.
But you're too kind to be him.
Have a good night, drink deep
