I Only Imagined It
I Only Imagined It
by heine
Moi et toi
et pas grand chose a faire
mais pour te tenir et t'embrasser
pour te taquiner et te sentir
Joie, pure joie
pour une fille et un garçon
Plus rien à cacher
laissant tous les problèmes de côté
Des sourires gravés sur nos visages
L'excitation de ce jeu laisse ses traces
Oh, mais la vie peut être si méchante,
quand tu sors d'une rêverie - …pas élégant
Je l'ai seulement imaginé
J'aimerais que vous soyez ici
Je l'ai seulement imaginé
J'aimerais que tu sois là maintenant
Me and you
and not much to do
but to hold you and hug you
to tease you and feel you
Joy, pure joy
for a girl and a boy
Nothing more to hide
leaving all troubles aside
Smiles chiseled into our faces
The excitement of this game is leaving its traces
Oh, but life can be so mean,
when you're just stepping out of a daydream
I Only Imagined It
How I wish you were here

Re: I Only Imagined It
I Only Imagined It
Lichen Throat
In Durango I was working on a burger.
I saw her in the restaurant, but I didn’t even know her.
I was nine and she was nine or ten.
We’d never met before, and we never met again.
Maybe I only imagined it,
But I thought I caught her eye, and I never did forget.
I thought she returned my glance,
But our parents both were there, and we never got a chance.
I was driving in my beat-up truck.
I stopped at the signal, right when she pulled up,
Windows down and blasting “Silly Girl,”
Drumming fingers on the wheel and shaking all her curls.
Maybe I only imagined it,
But I thought I caught her eye, and I never did forget.
I thought she returned my glance,
But the light changed to green, and we never got a chance.
I know we diverged like roads in a wood,
I won’t forget, even if I could.
I was at the spring semester dance.
Just bopping with a pal with whom I had no romance,
When I saw a girl bouncing up and down,
In a yellow bubble skirt that she twirled all around.
Maybe I only imagined it,
But I thought I caught her eye, and I never did forget.
I thought she returned my glance,
But she left with her friends, and we never got a chance.

Re: I Only Imagined It
I Only Imagined It
caravan ray
We had a perfect love
in just the way we wanted it to be
But I never knew
Someday it stops being the way I want it to be
How could have I imagined this feeling as the dark clouds gathered
When the rains come to wash my heart clean
When the rains come to wash my heart clean
When the rains come to wash my heart clean
When the rains come to wash my heart clean
Did I just imagine it
Did I only imagine it
Did it really happen at all
Is this just a figment
Just a fake imaginary thing
That never really happened at all
I wear the Pixies T-shirt that your bought me
Or did that come from St Vinnie de Paul
And the song I wrote you
Did I write that?
I don’t recall the melody at all
All I can remember of the time we spent together
Is weather
When the rains came to wash my heart clean
When the rains came to wash my heart clean
When the rains came to wash my heart clean
When the rains came to wash my heart clean
Did I just imagine it
Did I only imagine it
Did it really happen at all
Is this just a figment
Just a fake imaginary thing
That never really happened at all
I see the rain coming down
To the ground
To wash my heart clean
Wash my heart clean
I guess I just imagined it all

Re: I Only Imagined It
I Only Imagined It
My Social Uniform
In the wrong place
At the right time
I'll tell you what I know about that
If you'd seen me
Beaten down from
The swinging of the baseball bat
Everything I did or said was wrong
And I knew I'd stayed for far too long
If I only imagined it
How good
My life would be
I wouldn't have stood by
So long
Ran out of there
Both fingers in the air
I had the idea
How to get free
Always hoped to be on my own
So say goodbye
With a battle cry
Face first into the unknown
Everything I said or did was wrong
And I know I'd stayed for far too long
But in the end it made me strong
If I only imagined it
How good
My life would be
I wouldn't have stood by
So long
Ran out of there
Both fingers in the air
If I only imagined it
How good
If I only imagined it
We all have borders
And I'm not good at taking orders
You can only push for so long
You keep your life 'cause now I'm gone
Everything I said or did was wrong
And I know I've stayed for far too long
But in the end it made me strong
If I only imagined it
How good
My life would be
I wouldn't have stood by
So long
Ran out of there
Both fingers in the air

I Only Imagined It - The Magnetic Letters
The Steinway lid is closed; it makes no sense but this whole places is on the nose
It stinks of crabs and we're all packed in like sardines
And have you seen the F-cramps holding up the ceiling beams?
You telling me to stop...says to me you cannot see the ceiling drop
And as the walls begin to close in from all sides
It's clear to me now would be a good time to step outside
But you say I only imagined it
You say I only imagined it
You brought me here I'd no idea you'd paid to get me in
That's very kind but I'm inclined to leave before the show begins
You telling me my heart's not about to punch a hole right through my shirt
Doesn't change the fact these chairs are clearly nicked from down the street
You grab my hand as I get up to my feet
Saying I only imagined it
Saying I only imagined it
You say I only imagined, I only imagined it

Don’t take this the wrong way
I don’t believe anything you say
Your actions should match your words
What was it you thought you heard
Yes maybe I don’t know
When the future is the past
Nothing is made to last
Your actions hurt more than words
I thought for sure that I heard
Yes, maybe, I don’t know
(Yes maybe I don’t know)
Existential dread
Hearts of dripping red
It’s just a fantasy (just a fantasy)
In the mind’s eye, my my my
My vivid senses among toads and princes
It’s just a fantasy (just a fantasy)
It’s just a fantasy (just a fantasy)
Do you ever do you ever do you ever do you ever
Do you ever do you ever do you ever do you ever
Wanna wanna watch the world burn? (watch the world burn)
The fire brigade came today
After the flames had their way
Their actions so much louder than words
I think what we heard was
Yes, maybe, I don’t know
(Yes, maybe, I don’t know)
I died and fell out of bed
With a scream in my head
Your actions hurt more than words, cuz
I thought for sure
What I heard was
Yes, maybe, I don’t know
(Yes maybe I don’t know)
Yes, maybe, I don’t know
(Yes maybe I don’t know)
Yes, maybe, I don’t know

What if your hands
were made out of gelatin
and they shook every time
someone shut the door
with too much excessive force
wouldn't that be something
for you to deal with
you could not grip anything
nor could you date vegans
don't let that thought marinate
lest it become not a dream
not a whim but just everything
the wobbly enveloping your body
you become engulfed
in crimson semi-sweet
oscillating animal byproducts!
I rise from bed go outside in my garden
pull the weeds, agony
I'm torn from my roots - suicide
my stalk is bent
leaves are thrown on sunbaked pavement
disconnect
my hands grab my own torso, cut my hair
my trichromes now emit histamine from needles into my hands
I react with a wince
I know that I win external wars with myself
I warned me painfully about the dangers
contained in stinging nettles
I suffer such for my empathy
If you told me I was you I'd believe me
Cause my daydreams consume my reality
If you told me that I only imagined it
I would never comprehend what you said
I thought I saw I in the corner of my eye
Am I a person or am I just I and i?
why did I try to ever transmogrify my only corporeal vessel
honestly I'm not sure I truthfully achieved it
did I go too far into my cerebrum
confuse myself like I did
the time that I thought i became wine
fermented muscadine grapes
plucked from the vine by the bypass
or the time I read up far too in depth
about root connections between
the different kinds of trees
mycorrhizae extending
beneath me silently
If I told me I was i i'd believe me
Am I aware of my own mortal boundaries?
If I told me I imagined myself
I could not comprehend what I told me
I thought I saw I in the iris of my eye
Am I your eyelid, did I die, where am I?
I know I was I till I started asking why
Am I just I or am I that other I?
What is what I who the what is what I
who am I am what the who where when
is where am I is it why the who what the
why am I the what the what is where am who is it is

Lest ye fall just know I am your savior
Believe that I provide all that you favor
Close your eyes! I have news to share
Close your eyes! In your mind I’m there
Close your eyes! I expanded it
The universe! I imagined it
Stay sure that yes we are one
One day thou shall be blessed with my son
I do not run when you struggle desperately
Now you understand your one true destiny
No foe shall move best of me be thy astonished
And so I have tested thee my smile is modest
The earth will keep spinning together we are one

by Colicky Zebras
I put you down as a maybe
a guest of honour that will betray me
I put a question mark beside your name
and with every answer I get
it always sounds the same
I only imagined It
but it felt like a real ending
I only imagine that
our paths went spiralling
I only imagined It
but it felt like a real ending
to me
darling I just think that you are paranoid
always holding me at gunpoint
I have no reason to apologise
but honestly, if it gets through the day
you can fantasize
I only imagined It
but it felt like a real ending
I only imagine that
our lives went spiralling
I only imagined It
but it felt like a real ending
to me
just put yourself in my shoes
would you put up with you?
I put you out like a cheap suit
as you lack the luster in my passion fruit
I put full stop at the end of us
I have no room left to adjust
I only imagined It
but it felt like a real ending
I only imagine that
our paths went spiralling
I only imagined It

We used to get our kicks by the Swedish Pit
G Am
Drive in to town from out in the sticks
At the end of the runway
G Fmaj7
A warehouse on a rainy sunday
Am Dm
Was like a poor man’s trip down the vegas strip
G Am
From Easter Island to the Frisco bricks
Fmaj7
18 holes, a batting cage
G
And an arcade that paid minimum wage
F
It was there I swear
G Am
Or did I only imagine it?
Remember Nick, and his head full of tricks?
We knew he had a future making big screen flicks
Filming disorder on his sony camcorder
As Evan pushed me into the New York Harbor
Then they threw in the towel in 2019
And it was plaster dust and the smell of chlorine
Astroturf with mozzarella stains
And bobcats knockin down the final remains
Sometimes I think
That I only Imagined it
But even Godless Heathens exists for a reason
Was a cut and cap job before the busy season
He remembered that sphinx from his days on the links
When it was mini golf or the rollerinks
He recruited a few from his plumbing crew
At the company picnic chuggin mountain Dew
A sawzall, a chisel, and a baseball bat
They got the head off that noseless Egyptian cat
Fmaj7
Come hell or high water
G
He had no sons and no daughters
And every attempt at a craigslist sale
Got a couple of bites but to no avail
Chicken wire and plaster - it was heavy as lead
And some 2x4s running from the neck through the head F-G
Until Brendan made an offer too good to refuse
Didn’t offer money or barter for booze
Just to haul it away on the next sunny day
They’d pay him by putting it up on display
It was doomed to the back room
And now it was being exhumed
SO now it sits in the New North End
With Evan and Allie and Ari as friends
Pays its respect to the morning sun
As Khepri and the Heathen would’ve wanted it done
We used to get our kicks by the Swedish Pit

It was there I swear
G Am
Or did I only imagine it?
Remember Nick, and his head full of tricks?
We knew he had a future making big screen flicks
Filming disorder on his sony camcorder
As Evan pushed me into the New York Harbor
Then they threw in the towel in 2019
And it was plaster dust and the smell of chlorine
Astroturf with mozzarella stains
And bobcats knockin down the final remains
Sometimes I think
That I only Imagined it
But even Godless Heathens exists for a reason
Was a cut and cap job before the busy season
He remembered that sphinx from his days on the links
When it was mini golf or the rollerinks
He recruited a few from his plumbing crew
At the company picnic chuggin mountain Dew
A sawzall, a chisel, and a baseball bat
They got the head off that noseless Egyptian cat
Fmaj7
Come hell or high water
G
He had no sons and no daughters
And every attempt at a craigslist sale
Got a couple of bites but to no avail
Chicken wire and plaster - it was heavy as lead
And some 2x4s running from the neck through the head F-G
Until Brendan made an offer too good to refuse
Didn’t offer money or barter for booze
Just to haul it away on the next sunny day
They’d pay him by putting it up on display
It was doomed to the back room
And now it was being exhumed
SO now it sits in the New North End
With Evan and Allie and Ari as friends
Pays its respect to the morning sun
As Khepri and the Heathen would’ve wanted it done
