dopamine

eyes flash in the dark

can i give you a hand for your pinball heart?

it's not heaven

but it's a start

so lightly we tread

you would call me up from your hospital bed

now we're doing it all

again

it's the beat in you chest

it's the smoke on your breathe

as the dopamine begins to light your eyes

there's nothing but the dust and dirt to keep us up tonight

and my heart is singing

screaming

i'm alive"
