Denny’s is truly the home hub/save spot in the game of life

Yeah, I fear you were right

‘Cause I don’t really need you anymore
Maybe I never did
& that’s just clearer than ever before

But do you realize
that all of your lies
have realized
as your third-eye
side-eyes
the skies
just for crying?

When I was a psychonaut
you steered us to the moon
& said you’d disappear
once I no longer needed you
& everything is as it was,
as it’s always been
& I giggle falsely
as a gourmet scam
the ghost of you fades
blends into the night
& my pupils don’t dilate
‘cause it seems you were right

You knew me better than anyone else
Sometimes in tune even more than myself
Is this a decades-long long-con
I’d never expect?
Or do you just linger
for nostalgic effect?

‘Cause you don’t even know me anymore
My soul is a forest you no longer explore

You were the iris
of my eyes
Brought bright bold new colors
into my sights

& I used them to paint
the landscape of my life
Grew around you like ivy
& reached such great heights

I ballyhooed my image as
half of a whole
Wound up miles of thought strings
I’ll now have to unroll

Now we still leap-frog through life
Like we’re juggling time
A black hole grows between us
Thought I’d see you on the other side

But I don’t really know you anymore
Your eyes are no longer a door…

“Your mom goes to college!” for sure
