Wanna-be shine

diamond with five corners and a wanna-be shine
yellow motor boat crawls out into the night
twister blows sand straight into the our eyes
radio plays love songs to make the devil cry

nerves are shot, lights are blown
watch for telltale signs
two half lives
both hearts will break in time

church bus filled with figurines of christ
drive-in movie screen covered in blue ice
holes in the road to the center of the earth
secrets can be told without a single word

is there any reason for one last try
stars are falling, flames flash through the sky
wave and wonder, losing our minds
clocks slow down, running out of time
