on scratch and dent dreams,
whole cases of imperfect ambitions
stuff the idealists couldn't sell.

but it all works just fine.

good night kisses and stationary stars
still flying at the speed of light.

you'll find a whole crate of second hand hope.

you just gotta work, polish it up a little bit.

trade it in for some injection mold
and here and now. — Eric Darby
