Thoughts are shaken…
But I can take it…
Eyes, they blink and…
Cannot see a fucking thing,
I'll just keep them closed

'till something gives

My skull, the drums
will render, burst—
Crescendo in
my head

Pressure's lance
of colored spots—
A light-show
all in red

Ringing rush,
it pulses—Oh—
I'm raking for
the catch

A vice's cinch,
constricting force—
To fight does bow
my back

Air is thinning…
But I won't panic…
I can't hear a…
Beg you, save your speaking and
just hold me instead

'till something gives

[ch]

Holding
Hold me

Thanks so much, Janine! It was good making this with you.

You can’t relax around a coiled spring
No matter what they say 
Cause what they do is everything
You can’t relax around a coiled spring

What did you think was gonna happen? 
What did you think was gonna happen?

No matter what they tell you
The snake is not your friend
That’s just me being me, he said
I’m the snake for heaven’s sake oh what did you expect?

What did you think was gonna happen?
What did you think was gonna happen?

But snake also needs a friend
A snake ought to haaaaave a friend
A snake also needs a friend
A snake ought to haaaaave a friend
Ssssssssssssssss

You can’t relax around a person who snaps
No matter how they kiss
A morsel of cheese and a tango perhaps,
But turn your back and you’re just a mouse in a trap

What did you think was gonna happen?
What did you think was gonna happen?
What did you think was gonna happen?
What did you think was gonna happen?

An apology for the fluffed line  ''They went about their business to singe King George's whiskers'  it is a an 'orrible line to sing but it is a reference to the 1587 raid on Cadiz by Francis Drake in which he is said to have 'singed the King of Spain's beard'.  Loosely in the style of one Jake Thakray, who also liked witches. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfUC5XnUoD4 

John Paul Jones with his brave and professional crew
Sailed across the 'Lantic with incendiary antics to pursue...

Steering by the stars 'neath the watchful eye of Mars on the blue
They landed unopposed and with the enemy they closed, like you do... 

Sail away, sail away, sail away Yankee boys  
 
Well the wind veered south and blew their lantern out, what rotten luck
To a tavern their retreat was disciplined and neat with bargain struck...

They would shed no blood, tho' they'd take a drop o' rum 'for the cold'
Honest fighting men they partied long and hard and then, 
paid for all they took in Yankee gold. 

Sail away, sail away, sail a way Yankee boys  

 Capn' Jones he hurried to the rescue of his men
a' fearing that things had gone awry
When all were reunited most of them were still short sighted
from the drinking and carousing, Jones could cry...

They went about their business to singe King George's whiskers
somewhat late..
Two ships they set a blaze and come the breaking of the day 
they left in haste

Sail away sail away, sail away Yankee boys

Such a blow they struck for freedom,
for The 13,
for the fame.
and that tavern in Whitehaven, well,
it never smelt the same...

Lyrics:

If you're gonna scream, scream with me
Moments like this never last
When do creatures rape your face
Hybrids opened up the door
Ooh baby when you cry
Your face is momentary
You hide your looks behind these scars
In hybrid moments
Give me a moment
Give me a moment
Give me a moment
Ooh baby when you cry
Your face is momentary
You hide your looks behind these scars
In hybrid moments
In hybrid moments
In hybrid moments
In hybrid moments
Give me a moment
Give me a moment

ummmmahmahmAAAh.... I have a FUCKton of things playing on loop inside my head and, to put it simply, I would vastly prefer it if they took up residence somewhere outside of my head instead.
