Mental flames.
Feeling ‘em in my brain.
Explosions of emotions.
I love this pain, tears like rain.
Trapped in this game, hoping to find my beautiful dame.

My words are my cheat codes.
But I’m not in cheat mode.
Call it a draw, 50/50.
Dim the lights, mood gets shifty.

Stick with me well past the two-thousand 50s
I’d be into my 60s.
Accept my life as a victory
Forever and always, you with just me.
