You're A Mess But That's Why We're Friends

The most interesting people I've ever met
used to shoot poison into their veins and hop trains
to the next ghost town looking to fill itself up
with people who understand that just because it's empty
it doesn't mean it lacks personality.

The most interesting people I've ever met
know what it's like to feel torn apart inside
for no damn reason except for the fact that
nobody around here shares the same
colorful brain-to-mouth symbiotic relationship.

The most interesting people I've ever met
paint their souls onto whatever surface wants them to
and they couldn't care less if you've got the cash
to show off to your guests that you have a cultured taste
and it's proven by the piece hanging above your fireplace.

The most interesting people I've ever met
show off their passions through vibrating guitar strings
that never stop buzzing even when fingers bleed on the frets
and they couldn't care less if their voice is a little flat
because if it was perfect then they'd be just like you.

The most interesting people I've ever met
don't worry about distance, time, or money
because not God or the Devil could keep them from loving
the closeness of someone else's heartbeat
in synchronization with their own irregular pulse.
