lyrics

The very first line of my novel, my very first try at the genre science fiction rock opera. Nowadays I can’t remember what was the trash and the treasure—was there a big hit in there somewhere? I have no good reason why I should keep them in that sad museum of ideas.

Maybe someday in the future they’ll find a curious creature, and say, “oh my god, what happened here?” They’ll reckon the cause of the death was “buried alive in a pile of bad ideas on scrap paper.” He had no good reason why he should keep them in that sad museum of ideas.

I leave behind empires of pieces; some are keepers, and some are leavers—but most are leavers.
