All I Need

I don’t want flowers and feathers
Paired up with pastel skies, 
Representing all the love that’s alive.

I don’t want plain musky wood, 
The type of wood you’d have to cut
To make sure it was really smooth.

I don’t want no silence whatsoever,
No quiet, no words, no whisper, no noise.

I hate when it’s so still.
I hate when perfection takes place in the middle of the air,
Rushing petty looks and emotions of despair.

I want all the misery that’s left to find,
Messy as he is, that’s who I’ll take with my heart.

I want a forest fire beside my bed,
Screaming, shouting, yelling,
Until salt water comes down my neck.

I need no peace, no greatness, no hope.
What I need is what I lost,
And what’s lost feels so far away I cannot reach it anymore.

Is it burning myself okay with all I said?
Cause I don’t need any garden
To make me feel like a breath of fresh air,
When all I need is to be the smoke
That comes out of your cigarette.
