dead petals  


Feel like a fly stuck in a room,
I keep bleeding while you bloom, 
Dirty stimulation—scratch the itch, 
Stay a safe but lonely ostracist.

 
Dead petals on the windowsill,  
Wrap me up with your biofilm, 
Blank stare when I touched her lips, 
Noon sun feels like fresh air to a fish


Feel like a wasp in a cocoon, 
All that comes easy dies so soon, 
Easy fornication—don’t get hitched, 
Stay a safe but lonely ostracist.


Dead petals on the windowsill,  
Wrap me up with your biofilm, 
Blank stare when I touched her lips, 
Noon sun feels like fresh air to a fish
Dead petals on the windowsill,  
Wrap me up with your biofilm, 
Blank stare when I touched her lips, 
Noon sun feels like fresh air…

mammoth  

A simple plan,
Bred consequence, 
And built your home…
In a hornets nest, 
And shakes it constantly, 
Why do you stay? 


Lost, 
In, 
The promises… 
That you make. 
Far, 
Away,
The person you should’ve been. 


Like potters clay, 
You mould and sway,
Against your will.
In an open box, 
Remain there persistently, 
Why do you stay? 


Lost, 
In, 
The promises… 
That you make. 
Far, 
Away,
The person you should’ve been. 


To form, 
Into…
A dark, passenger. 
And,
Murder, 
That old youthful gaze. 
To form,
Into…


Is this all? 
Good as it gets? 
Am I thankless? 
The August sun…
Feels like fresh air…
To a lamprey 


Lost, 
In, 
The promises… 
That you make. 
Far, 
Away,
The person you should’ve been.

Cataracts (In the Killing Field) 

Verse 1
Can’t hide behind the wall, 
In the killing field, 
So auspicious— and ready to bruise…
Can’t dig yourself a hole, 
With your bare hands, 
Lying prostrate—in the field…

Chorus 
So defenceless,
Stillborn…
And the sun spill gives you cataracts.
Cold to the touch, 
So pale…
And your lips are turning greyish blue 

Verse 2 
Dust coating on your lungs, 
In the killing field, 
Uncultivated—and ready to burn…
I’ll dig you a hole,
With my bare hands…
No more turmoil—in the field 

Chorus 
So defenceless,
Stillborn…
And the sun spill gives you cataracts.
Cold to the touch, 
So pale…
And your lips are turning greyish blue 

Breakdown 
You say you’re not tired…
But your eyes give you away

Outro 
In the killing field…
You’ll burn…
You’ll burn…
In the killing field…
You’ll burn…
You’ll burn…
In the killing field…
You’ll burn… 
You’ll decay…

Aesthetics 

She sits by the lake just tossing rocks, 
In a button-up shirt and knee high socks,
The picture said more than a thousand words, 
She only wished that it did not, 
You sit by the rocks just tossing stones, 
With your phone turned off just glad to be alone…
You start,
You start to get it, 
You start,
You start,
You start… 


A kaleidoscope…
Wear your wire coat 
Reach a higher post…
In your vinyl ghost. 


He sits in his room and begins to rock, 
In his baggy jeans and pearl jam top,
His regret and shame just can’t be put into words, 
He only wished that he had not.
You lay on the floor with your head in your hands, 
With your phone turned off and your canceled plans…
You start,
You start to get it, 
You start,
You start,
You start… 


A kaleidoscope…
Wear your wire coat 
Reach a higher post…
In your vinyl ghost
A kaleidoscope…
Wear your wire coat 
Reach a higher post…
In your vinyl…


Death…

While I Was Gone 

Verse 1 
Words spill…
Can’t get em out…
Your poor liver…
You’re fading…
Such a burden…
With your swollen eyes…

Chorus 
While I was gone,
The world kept turning, 
Infant innocence…
So corrupt.
This empty house,
Just keeps on burning, 
The years don’t stop,
Feel so abrupt. 

Verse 2 
Phone keeps ringing…
But I can’t answer…
My poor mental…
I’m withered…
Such a nothing…
With my purple eyes…

Chorus 2
While I was gone,
The world kept turning, 
Infant innocence…
So corrupt.
This empty house,
Just keeps on burning, 
The years don’t stop…
Feel so abrupt. 
While I was gone,
The world kept turning, 
Infant innocence…
So corrupt.
This empty house,
Just keeps on burning, 
The years don’t stop…

Bridge 
Your call…
I’m so conflicted…
I wish you wouldn’t…
Keep on…
Trying…
I’m so conflicted…
I wish you wouldn’t…
Keep safe…
Your idea of me…
Your false memories…
Your idea of me…
Your false memories…

Verse 1 
The lamp…
Leans…
Closer…
And I…
Can taste the ceiling…
Fold the hours…
Into neat piles…
I feel juvenescent  

Hook
Constant…
It’s a constant break—to watch you wither away 
Constant…
Take pleasure in just watching as you break  
Constant…
Here I lay—you fucking subjugate 
Constant…

Verse 2 
Young boy…
Down the hall…
Becoming so…
Burdensome…
But sugar-fly…
Still feels juvenescent 

Hook
Constant…
It’s a constant break—to watch you wither away 
Constant…
Take pleasure in just watching as you break  
Constant…
Here I lay—you fucking subjugate 
Constant…
Take pleasure in just watching as I break 

Bridge 
As I break…
As I break…
As I break…

I’ll find new ways, 
To keep you fed… 

Outro 
I keep tasting what’s undone, 
What have I become? 
You’re hungering again,
I can’t seem to say no,
I keep culling all my flames, 
And try to justify…
Keep feeding this beast,
I can’t seem to say no,
I keep tasting what’s undone, 
What have I become? 
You’re hungering again,
I’ll keep you fed…
I’ll keep you fed…
I’ll keep you fed…
