  • Collectors Gonna Collect Me Someday

    Wasted and wounded, I still adhere to wishing to be some new state

    This country made his compatriots buried in the mud

    This county slived hopeless ones until they broke into crumbles

    This street has no vision, 

    It’s useless to bond each shambles together, rife with unrecognizable blood stains and toils

    No one can creep into the dragon’s nest and see the deflective meanings on his unsharpened teeth anymore

    I’ll die here against my will, and I’ll stock myself in a pine box 

    And collectors gonna collect me someday, so I’m not here to judge

     

    Everyting’s primal, all the pride’s esteemed 

    My gun sleeps like a hunter’s, my pleasure gets lost

    My deeds are tangled, time lays in a deathbed

    My loved ones are ghosts, slaying themselves and wearing skins 

    I’m an antique sculpture that stands still in an antique pose 

    I got punched by so many weathers that keep changing still

    Amongst so many individuals that think they have a style of their own, I made my stand

    I’m broke down like a fortune globe but yet not broke in pieces 

    And collectors gonna collect me someday, I know I’m not ready 

     

    I have not to call someone that I think I scarsely know

    “That’s not the real news” would be said,                                 “These not the real words”

    Plenty things wouldn’t be dawned on if they’re not forgotten 

    Swear to god I’d know they’re true but they were stigmatized by the realities and brokenness

    I’d know it’s fine to get involved in something I feel that I don’t know

    Now the best I can is the worst they can’t, the tapsters got stiffed, too many thing’s wrong

    And the first break of day turned to be the last spark of ray, I can’t even tell myself that the day’s done

    Goddamn collectors gonna collect me someday

    I’m pretty sure 

     

    The sheriff eats his last supper, he’s going downsouth 

    He missed his target for 28 times, 24 times he lost attention

    Neighbour mumbles :”frankly dear, I don’t care”, now I think he’s freed of wrong tries and right mistakes 

    Now he thinks he tries his last wrong chance to leave his girl hung on a crucifix, he knows she won’t die 

    Some details changed about the things fellow citizens talk about, they miss the closures for the each drag-to-death breath, they miss the infinity

    They miss the times they would never know they’ll go astray

    I’m blinded and I’m bored, far away from the grave-of-soul shores

    Collectors gonna collect me someday, and I don’t give a damn

     

    Fies, lo and beholds, invitations to a brought-down loneliness by a downtown girl

    Fies, honking mouths and screaming seats 

    These streets got a lotta work to do with late-night loudmouths

    They tuckle and thumb the gaps on the after-rain grounds under the scrapped magazine papers 

    Over the jacuzzi of draining blackness, under the trees, under the vast, they seek pubs and jobs

    As a fact of no matter, I don’t sleep better compared to two days ago

    My bed’s not cold yet, blackmen still arresting the quiet ones of bad-aftermathed jigglers at the blue ridge

    Oh, baby, somebody’s gonna collect me someday

    I don’t care
