You're so dreaaaamy baby.
Like really dreamy I wish you could
See me though.
I don't think you can in this huge crowd
But one day that smile on your face
Will be allllll mine.
You heard?

You're so dreaaaamy baby.
You still don't notice me
And it's so funny because you're all I see,
Think or speak about.
I saw you with your friends
Talking and walking.
You voice like silk
And words like spoiled milk
But you're so **** dreaaaamy baby.

You're so dreaaaamy baby.
I figured it out
You like girls with curly hair
Light skin
Voices like the ocean and
And skin so smooth
You wonder if it's a potion.
That's why you don't notice me baby.
I guess zigzag coils are out of style
And dark skin isn't cutting it for you
My voice is rusty and soft, it doesn't flow loudly and smoothly like the sea
And my skin; it's bumpy. But don't we all deal with acne?

You're so dreaaaamy baby
And I want to be your dream girl.
So I straighten my hair and curl it in loose waves, I stay out of the sun even on beach days
I talk louder, with eloquence and confidence
And I do everything possible for clear skin.
And you do notice me this time.
You fall headfirst in love
Yet I can't get out of my mind when you asked
If I was new at school
When I've been there, around you for 3 years
I can only chuckle and say "sort of. But not really."
And that's the real truth.
I sit with you and you friends for months
At lunch like I had been dying to for years.
You don't ask me many questions about myself
Other than "Are going to here or there."
You complement my processed hair
You compliment my silky skin
You compliment my personality 2.0
And it doesn't feel right
Being this
But I've lost who I was a long time ago
And it sorta feels like I'm lacking soul.

You were my dream baby.
But why do I feel like hell?

Leap days and broken years

You were the best blanket
Now my coffee's my radiator and lover, both
I don't care to fix my shirt as it falls off my shoulder,
And sunlight bleeds over the bay
Paint splashes across the flowers in the windowbox,
Teenagers ride their bikes across the lane
Boats set off from the docks
Everything is just the same as when you left
I singed my hair with a lighter and took your picture from the wall
But you're still full of empty promises,
And I'm still sitting here, sipping coffee, waiting for you,
So nothing's really changed at all.

(at least the *** is new)

The Wind

He Bet on the alpha bet,
crashed out his presidents in alphabetical order
What a win of Doe
Cashed money with the feds, you know?
Who raced to fast but way to slow?
you bought what you thought he was,
moving from hearts shinny gold, An Open sky
With nothing to buy
but the wind.

"Changed A lot Since Then"

By Arcassin Burnham

I,
Use to be what everyone thought was a easy target,
It's so sad that they make fun of the wealth,
Say,
What they want , I just turn the other way and
Never look back,
I don't know what to do with myself,

So get your fingers out my ******* face,
I really hate violence,
But I have to put you back in your place,

I really changed alot for you

I,
I never meant hurt anyone I was living a horrid life,
There never was a plan for me,
Said,
What they said and it defeats the purpose when I didn't
live right,
But there wasn't a purpose for me,

And while I put you back in your place,
Bad luck on my side,
I just wanna get out of this human race,

I really changed alot for you.

"The Bible's A Comic Book"

By Arcassin Burnham

I'm Riding waves to taste life in a catastrophe,
They let you know everytime,
The feeling is beautiful,
It was like fire,
Bursting from automobiles,
We all have our careless thoughts,
Notice how pretty you are,
The ignorance comes with value,
I hope you could reach the bar,
And I hope this doesn't affect having a life,
Making every second count courageously,
Ignorance is also bliss,
Let it come true,
Shadows passing into mine,
What a great escape of being trapped,
I will not quit,
I will not be tamed,
Unless it confiscates on my eternal frame,
You make your stew,
Only you know you,
Somethings in life we overlook,
Ignorance is at an all time high,
So ignorant,
They think the bibles a comic book.

"The Right One"

By Arcassin Burnham

I remember from where I came,
You just had the right idea,
I would see the brighter days,
It takes the right one to tell ya,
I use to be a complete failure,
You were always so popular,
I knew I would always fail ya,
But it takes the right one to tell ya,

I use to have a lot of bullies,
You had friends on the soccer team,
In the crowd , your name I will scream,
It takes the right one to tell ya,
I spotted all the right reactions,
You were never controlled by non,
I knew one day I'd end up seeing ya,
It takes the right one to tell ya,
I will believe
in what I usually see
and that's a future with me
I need you here with me,
It takes the right one to tell ya.

"Worse Than Death"

By Arcassin Burnham

Starting to accept the deception of life itself,
Too many hands I held , too many cards I dealt,
Scared of the taste of hell,
Or drinking your life away
Killing brain cells,
Eternal sleep is not truely sleep,
Uncover the universe is the secrets they'll never tell,

Starting to accept the deception of life itself,
Too many hands I held , too many cards I dealt,
Scared of the taste of hell,
Or drinking your life away
Killing brain cells,
Eternal sleep is not truely sleep,
Uncover the universe is the secrets they'll never tell.

"It Never Fails"

By Arcassin Burnham

Different day
Different time,
Recent month,
I don't know,
All is quiet,
Written rhymes
On the road to nowhere,
But now here,
I'm thinking about your wasted youth,
And fractured mind,
Love in disguise for cavities,
Hail the wisdom tooth,
Jesus please!
We come in peace,

Gold glowing rods come out when I sneeze,
I don't even know why you aim so much to please,
Thinking maybe you might have had your motives,
Or the confidence and motivation to pursue me,
It never fails.

"State Your Request"

By Arcassin Burnham

Glow in your eyes just like Mandy from shameless,
I'd also love it if you're shameless to situations,
Maybe we could make a baby out of clay,
I'd say,
Its kinda lunaticish,
Or we could meet the king,
You could have your way,
Although he's really freakish,
Looking at road signs ,
Don't know which way to go,
Should I run back to you,
But I'd know that its fine,
Its okay to be sort of an attention *****,
But I guess all is lustful love And war.

"In Your Bones"

By Arcassin Burnham

I fill in the blanks where your feelings
Use to reside,
Stuck in the shadows,
I puke on the passenger side,
I am not a protector or a savior,
I can't provide,
But your brain
And your cells
And your thoughts are along for the ride,

I don't care for your face,
But in your bones,
There is no other place,
Then in my zone.

Our men and our women in the system
Fighting for peace,
Please get your kids in the house
It ain't safe on these streets,
While others are wicked and evil
Just to Gain the greed,
Working themselves to bone
For their kids,
They will feed.

In your bones.
