atlasless

lost in time, lost in space,
lost in a world with a forgettable face,
drifted, shifted, loose limbed lost,
floated through the ether, never stuck on the spot
of a turgid, placid, vacuous nought,
no thought idea, no idea thought
that shackled down a one look town,
no break out script,
mannacled by love and companionship.

lost in time, lost in space,
little boy lost in a journey escape,
drifting, shifting, scenery change,
little world life on the stony cold way
with bitten tongues and scratched starts,
slates cleaned and clean hearts,
of taking life by the scruff of the that,
forge on ahead and don't look back,
know what you want, better what you need,
go out and find and yourself to please
because you can't please everyone with the shit that you do,
better not to bother, just living for you,
too much baggage with the things you say,
button up walk and s'il vous plait.

so i'll adventure the story, fill my soul,
take by the scruff that i'm in control,
stretch to break, oyster my days,
lost in time, lost in space.
