BIRP! August 2017

lay me down, roll me down the stairs
see my soul explode
it stains the oxygen
that fills my lungs
it's cold
like the plastic bag you tied around my neck
you cried, but not for me no more

hundred flowers on your breast
a thousand boulders on my chest
wake up passing judgement on your way down

it's too much
where do you go to spin?
look into my marble eye
and then you walk back in

holy guardian
plant your feet on me
stomp the life force out
i wanna bleed

string me up
cut my throat

hundred flowers on your breast
a thousand boulders on my chest
wake up passing judgement on your way down

it's too much
where do you go to spin?
look into my marble eye
and then you walk back in
it's too much too much too much too much more
you are the cross i bear

Lyrics:
"When I graduated college 
I moved into the east village 
I got a job at a cool office 
I got Billy Joel’s Greatest Hits 
Huh-huh-huh (x2) 
I found a couple bars to lay my head 
And I drove to Queens and I bought a bed 
I made a whole bunch of New York friends 
And I wore all black cause everyone else did 
Huh-huh-huh (x2) 
And now I’m a New Yorker 
At an art gallery downtown 
I’m a New Yorker 
Get the hell outta my way now 
Yankees, Rangers, and Knicks 
Theater, Pizza, Velvet Underground 
I’m a New Yorker 
Get the hell outta my way now and go die 
Now I’m used to living hand to mouth 
I go to Rockaway when it’s really hot out 
I hate Williamsburg North, East and South 
I know all the lunch spots in Midtown 
Huh-huh-huh (x2) 
I work so hard that my hair’s been gettin’ thin 
I ain’t got no time to hit the gym 
I picked up a little bit of Spanish 
I’m a pretty smart guy, not for nothing 
Huh-huh-huh (x2) 
And now I’m a New Yorker 
At an art gallery downtown 
I’m a New Yorker 
Get the hell outta my way now 
Yankees, Rangers, and Knicks 
Theater, Pizza, Velvet Underground 
I’m a New Yorker 
Get the hell outta my way now and go die 
Go die (x4)"

Lyrics-

JUST SO SHE KNOWS
​
Don't stare at me,
Cause your eyes they eat away, at me.
And as always, 
 
I dunno what to say,
So much for this lovely day.
But don't mistake.
​
I will still wonder,
Why's he got such a cold shoulder.
You will falter,
And close yourself off from the other.
​
Come on give it a go.
Or just don't,
Just so she knows.
Just so you know.
​
Don't fast forward,
As you manipulate;
Taunt her shame
 
But don't mistake the middle ground found in the bait,
You'll still be left in a daze.
But don't mistake the middle ground found in the bait,
You'll still be left in a daze.
But don't mistake.
​
She will grow fonder,
And choose you over any other.
You will falter,
And close yourself off from the other.
​
He will start to wonder
Why's she got such a cold shoulder.
She will falter,
And close herself off from the other.
​
Come on give it a go.
Or just don't,
Just so she knows.
​
Come on, Come on,
We'll make it.
Come on, Come on,
Dont Fake it.
​
She will still wonder,
Why's he got such a cold shoulder.
You will falter,
And close yourself off from the other.
​
She will grow fonder,
And choose you over any other.
You will falter,
And close yourself off from the other.
