I am cruising
down the street
greeting people
that I meet
feeling mellow
feeling calm
but desperately
seeking -
deep emotion.

Give me sorrow
give me pain
give me mental
acid rain
show me grief
through true
perception
avoid happy !
it's deception
I believe in
and I crave
that desperately -
deep emotion.

There's no panic
scaring me
no grief-anxiety
I need to cry
I need to wallow
in my own
pathetic sorrow
give me pain
I don't want reason
give me
sabotage and treason.

Intangible fright
intangible fear
I want to reach out -
grab it -
and smear
it out -
on the ground
and listen to the sound
when hell-gates open
flush and drain -
to wash away my pain -
erode my mental misery
and blend it -
into open Sea.

Give me a break
'cause I can't take
more of this ache
I need to cry
I need to wallow
in my own
pathetic sorrow
don't want joy
and don't want reason
yearn for sabotage and
treason.

Dig real deep
and shuffle hard
to expose -
the unexposed
long unescavated
long expatriated
pitch black
and hard -
by DNA we have been told -
to find those magic -
deep and old -
emotions.

It's a hunger
it's a fire
it's a great and deep desire
it's a prize
it's my possession
it's relief from my depression
it's not too big
it's not too small
it's just relief
from it all
grant me pain-relief
allow me strain-relief
award me brain-relief
warm and welcome
deep emotion.

I want out of -
this Godforsaken Town
where there's no access
to my own -
dangerously gratifying
passionately satisfying
deep emotion.

I need
forward notion
mental lotion
too much sun
is no much fun
I take a trip
a mental dip
into a Glacier Bay
where you can hear
me pray
for deep and sweet
emotion.

I get humble
as I stumble
through
steep and rough
terrain
roaming through
my own -
mental pain
it's a killer
it's a joker
it's a love hating
smoker
lend me its ears
lend me its tears
please show me -
blow me -
squeeze and hug
pull and tug
kick to kill
shoot to thrill
I want the pain -
without the blood
I want -
syntax error flood
I have a grief
I have a reason
and it's not -
the final season
I must run, and
I must play
and I want to hear -
you say
that it's ok
to help me feel it -
deep emotion.
