Best of 2023

I’m the reason you leave the light on
I’m the monster under your bed
I’m the chemicals you can depend on
When the thoughts go rushing through your head

There’s no escape once I get inside
I’ve got a stolen key from your bag
From the astral plane I’ve seen projected
Every bad dream you’ve ever had

I know your mind
Your body is a sensor
I’ve seen through your eyes

Telepath

they're sending transmissions from the mothership
radar blips
they know exactly who i am and what i'm doing here
there's complications all the time but can you hold the line
i swear i'm feeling okay yeah i'm feeling fine
there's information that i'm holding for the FBI
recordings of this all
i think that it's AI
computers in between us all mediate the space
data beams communication
we are from another place
existence is a tragedy can't prevent the maladies
reason is a balm but the answers fit inside our palm
what is coming next the future like a threat
it's coming at us with some pace like brett lee in his golden age
nothing will stop us from going on
i get it
humans are like a disease though
if we don't revolutionise and clean the skies we'll wonder why we'll act surprised when people die
revolutionise

Contact

Oh god its me oh no why’d they pick me
I can’t believe it 
What are the chances of this occurring
It’s just my luck, bad and recursive

In a dream menacing and mean,
Becoming like the images I see up on the screen,
A has been - like I’ve seen it all before
Knocked upon the glass and someone opened up a door

A cruel machine a laugh unconvincing
I won’t believe it
What’s the purpose of my involvement,
A juggler for the circus?

It’s obscene, dehumanise my being
Turn me into a concept - that belongs in a museum.
A trophy, don’t you undermine my class
I’ve heard it from the best I’m gonna end up coming last

Just testing the surface will it break will it fold
I’m still on the other side will you get me out in time
Collapsing the bubble stuck inside a circle
I’m still on the other side will you get me out in time

Just testing the surface will it break will it fold

Collapsing the bubble stuck inside a circle

Other Side

I’ll be the pitcher if you want to catch
I’ll be a prophet though you best not ask
I’ll tell you things that you want to hear
Present a story then I’ll disappear
And why it is well I cannot say
And what will happen,
When we only measure yesterday
There’s certain things that we cannot know
But we all leave tracks in the snow

I’ll be the pitcher if you want to catch
I’ll be a prophet though you best not ask
I cannot challenge your point of view
If I’m being honest I just don’t know what to do
Your mind is a new reality
The product of physics & chemistry
So you ask me where to find it all
But there’s a whole universe inside us all

There’s a whole universe inside us all ∞

Universe

I cannot relate to the pop stars
It’s subliminal &
It really brings me down
But not so far
Underground that I’d meet the devil

So would you please 
Understand me
I’m suffering so quietly
While I wait for the end or the beginning,
Or the end of the beginning

I don’t know
Why I have these dreams
They terrify me
Coming from the screen
Is it too late 
to regret my own future,
Before I exist within it?

I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know

i don't know

Somewhere under the sea
They’re listening to us breathe
Inhale the words you speak

Fire in the submarine no way out
Trapped underwater with pressure all around
The US has us pinned and we cannot make a sound
Bring my body to my mother and put me underground

The shadow swallows you up
The salt corrodes the cut
An echo everlasting

The dark depths vibrating
The radiation leaks 
My legs begin to shake
Beyond life my fate

Submarine Movie

Writing you a message
I don’t have much time
Searching for the meaning
Am I wasting my life?
I was stuck in the clouds- still looking for the truth
Now I’m faded in my room I don’t know should I text you?
Yung lean and the goth bois too
They certainly got me, 
and I think they got you too
Noise in my head but there’s no use complaining
I think bout the sound that it makes when its raining
I’m in my trench coat battling the fog
If you see me in the street it’s a trick sent by god
Thinking bout the traps that we all stumble into
If we made a new beginning would it be like the end too?
I’m wondering if my time, is it worth it?
Checking out the stores but can’t afford any new drip
Holes in my old clothes
Logos on my new clothes
Don’t really like the scheme
But I can’t change the way the money flows

It doesn’t care about the things that you want
It doesn’t care about the life that you lead
It doesn’t care for you or anything
So you’re fucking priceless

I’m mostly tasteless
Never could have cared less
Yeah I’ve got some vices
Paying different prices
If you’re worthless you will never mean a thing
When you become priceless nothing can mean everything
Stare into the void
Give yourself the space you need
Yeah I see the same thing
a big conspiracy
It’s the elephant sitting in the room
Economy built on the will to consume us

It doesn’t care about the things that you want
It doesn’t care about the life that you lead
It doesn’t care for you or anything
So you’re fucking priceless

It doesn’t care about the person you are
It doesn’t care about what you believe
It’s taking all that you are built to perceive
So you’re fucking worth less

Forget
Forget
How can I forget
Can’t imagine
How can I forget
Can’t remember it
Every little thing
The noise in my head
Noise in my head
Getting deafening
I’m a radiohead
Who do you represent
Are you a figurehead
It took me to a place 
That I cannot recommend
Don’t download this app 
It’s a terrible thing
My day was ruined
And I cannot pretend
Forget
Forget
How can I forget
Can’t imagine
How can I forget
Can’t remember it
Every little thing
The noise in my head
Noise in my head
Getting deafening

Ripping out the jugular
I’m coughing like a dwarf
Got the black lung from the mining
All these gemstones my rewards
Got some ores that need refining
Getting to the smelter
Digging out the shelter
Going helter skelter
Sliding head first
To the bottom
While I’m reaching up top
Got the diamonds on my wrist
And I’m gonna make you watch

worthless/priceless-radiohead-dwarf

Cash, money
Hold the drugs
Transmission from above
Beat poet manufacture
Ice cold architecture

Reject the nihilistic
Its a primitive fold
Embrace the hedonistic
Hidden within in the void

Can’t you hear the wind chimes
The sound is in the air
Told to look for signals
But you cannot feel what’s there

If you revel in the message
Know that death is ever present
Sanity you cling to
Will dissolve amidst the wreckage

The prophecy
It’s part of me
Catastrophe
An urgency
Malignancy against the wind
A pissing contest covered in
Decay
Rotting 
Bleeding
Writhing
Boiling oceans
Drowning
Screaming
I’m here shuddering just thinking
What’s it mean to actually feel it

All the angels soaring saw it
Devil is preparing an audit
St Lawrence is losing his mind
Turned him over too many times
Christ - I can’t believe my eyes
The motive forsaking life
Only hope that they feel the vibes
When the sandman comes to say goodnight

Sending out the morse code
Beating thru my chest
Heart attack imminent
A silence I resent

Chemicals palpable
A burden to the skin
I think I need some collagen
Before I begin again

Times on the clock
Hands pointing to the problem
Symmetry forsaken
As we spiral to the bottom

River crossing closed
Cause the sailors out drinking
Can’t find a way out
Now the ship is sinking

The prophecy
It’s part of me
Catastrophe
An urgency
Malignancy against the wind
A pissing contest covered in
Decay
Rotting 
Bleeding
Writhing
Boiling oceans
Drowning
Screaming
I’m here shuddering just thinking
What’s it mean to finally feel it

All the angels soaring saw it
Devil is preparing an audit
St Lawrence is losing his mind
Turned him over too many times
Brother - I can’t believe my eyes
The motive forsaking life
Only hope that they feel the vibes
When the sandman comes to say goodnight

Cash, money
Hold the drugs
Transmission from above
Beat poet manufacture
Ice cold architecture

I could be the antichrist & that still wouldn’t change their minds

I could be the antichrist and that still wouldn't change their minds

Year of the tiger
Genuine cypher
You can hear it if you want some one to talk to
Beautiful nightmare
Superliminal despair
If you feel it you might find someone that likes you

The dream
Is real
The void
It steals
Your soul
Go cold

Thought 
for years
Turns out 
No fears
Become
Undone

Erasing the findings
Impeccable timing
Everyone is always there looking to find you
Covert operation
Mass speculation
Hope you wear very best Sunday costume
Funeral empires
Belligerent liars
You can hear it if you want some one to talk to
Beautiful nightmare
Shadow and crosshair
If you feel it you might find someone that likes you

Disguised
Never sure
Open hand
Closed door
A hand clapping
Overlapping

Against 
the dream
A cosmic 
Scheme
Temporary
Transparency

Searching 
for meaning
Not constant 
But speeding
A blur
A curse

Erasing the findings
Impeccable timing
Everyone is always there looking to find you
Covert operations
Mass speculation
Hope you wear very best Sunday costume
Year of the tiger
Chemical fire
You can hear it if you want some one to talk to
Beautiful nightmare
Shadow and crosshair
If you feel it you will find someone that likes you

Likes you

Year of the tiger
Friendly reminder
You can hear it if you want some one to talk to
Beautiful nightmare
Liminal despair
If you feel it you can find someone that likes you

Sometimes I feel nothing
I feel nothing
And I don’t want to talk about it
My mind its in a dream
Its in a dream
Beyond your imagination
The earth a Ponzi scheme
Its all a scheme
They won’t let you know about it
The ocean caving in
It’s crashing in
And there’s nothing you can do about it

I’m stuck feeling lonely
You’re just a dream
But I love you only
I ride like a cancer
Moving sideways
Shoot like an archer
I tried
But nothing can escape it
Can’t breathe
But nobody can tear me, out

Sometimes I feel nothing
I feel nothing
And I don’t want to talk about it
My mind its in a dream
Its in a dream
Beyond your imagination
Complete the big machine
The whole damn thing
Colossal amalgamation
Desire like kerosene
It’s burning me
Transfixed by annihilation

Stars shine thru the night
They keep me down
Pushed out of sight
Glowing like the moon
Lit up too soon
Grinning like a fool
I tried
But nothing can escape it
Can’t breathe
But nobody can tear me, out

Sometimes I feel nothing
I feel nothing
And I don’t want to talk about it
My mind its in a dream
Its in a dream
Beyond your imagination
Police they intervene
They screw the scene
Generalise the abbreviations
The tires are still burning
They’re towering
Alchemist at the centre of it
The ocean caving in
It’s crashing in
And there’s nothing you can do about it 
nothing you can do about it
nothing you can do about it
nothing you can do about it
nothing you can do about it

The wind 
It blows
Right through
My bones
It digs
Right in
And I 
Begin
Bleeding 
I disappear

Sometimes I Feel Nothing

Plants and colours like the rainbow
I’m struck faint by marigold
I’m so poetic 
Yet I cannot break free 
Of the spell
That disillusions me
Grey cast upon all I see
The castle walls surrounding me built thick
Grey cast upon all I see  
The fog its choking me, suffocating

Memory about a dream
Freely moving through the trees
Underneath a canopy
Insects sounding on the breeze
“Come on you remember me”
Pixies keep provoking me
“Understand the reasoning
Behind all the fantasy”

Its collapsing
I’m realising
But I’m still dreaming

Send a message
Outside
The castles walls will still be waiting
Send a message
Outside
Because eternity is calling
Send a message
Outside
The twisted avenues open to thee
Send a message
Outside
Because eternity is calling

Memory about a dream
Freely moving through the trees
Underneath a canopy
Insects sounding on the breeze
“Come on you remember me”
Pixies keep provoking me
“Understand the reasoning
Behind all the fantasy”

pixies

I’m deconstructed
From foreign parts
Multiple sources
Of hidden scars
Don’t ask for too much
You’ll get not enough
Cause there’s a struggle
Surrounds us

See the world
Turning me
Into such 
A tragedy
Leaving me 
Subliminally
A stone.
I’m cold.
Reminder of
The pleasures of 
Vacancy
Complacency
Limitless
The absence of
The void.
I’m cold.

They’ve got my number
It’s 23
I’m not a sports star
I’m just lucky
Check my emotions
Against the clock
Its Swiss precision
The path I

cold

I want to tell you something
But I want to get it right
Sorry I’m a total downer
Sorry I’m always inside
I can’t keep a steady job
And I don’t even wanna try
I wish that I could disappear
Would I even say goodbye?

Sometimes I’m just letting go
Of the moment and
Always I will live inside
Of the feeling like
An object - something cast aside
Temporary
Like a being that’s
Less than human
I’m not worthy of you

I want to tell you something
But I want to get it right
Everything is momentary
Even the light behind your eyes
Timing I can’t keep a hold of
Cause the memory just dissolves
Everything is disappearing
From the instant it takes hold

Total Downer

Waiting for the moment
It is reaching out towards me
I can’t take it
So slowly the physical forming
It was severed from the sky
So now the possibilities are swarming
Now nothing matters
You can convince me of anything

Ghost-flesh of my fingertips
Dissolves into the other world
Memories of experience
Glance back into the void
Ghost-flesh of my fingertips
Suffering numbing cold
Fondest lover on my list
With me till I grow old

Ghost-flesh of my fingertips
Locked in my embrace
Conviction of my interest
Eternity floating in space
Ghost-flesh of my fingertips
Reject the subtle noise
Time has nothing on us
We’re forever decomposed

Ghost - Flesh

… 
Something in the way 
You look at me
It’s a tragedy
Being unravelled
Through the dimension of time
You’ll see me
Disconnected from everything

Only thru the illusion
Of permanence 
That you’ll see me
Or anything
By the time 
That you realise 
That I’m here
I’ll be gone

But through a mess plastic
You will find me there
I’m filthy and dishevelled
If anybody cares

Through a mess plastic
Uncertain like a vice
Tho I’m certain that it’s over

Through a mess plastic
Unstable as the wind

Through a mess plastic
…

2023_A

I’ve made up my mind
But this happens all the damn time
The moment I find certainty
Its already collapsing in

It’s hard to define
It’s written like calligraphy across my eyes
I can’t make any sense of this
It stares back at me from the abyss

Uncertainty
To a degree
Is shaping me
Consistently
Internally
Fracturing
Externally
Metamorphosing

Uncertainty

Focused like a laser beam
Twisting like a knife
Vision thru the looking glass
As day becomes the night

Its nothing in particular
A shadow creeping in
My vision getting blurry
Tho the glass is crystalline

Darkest embers flying high 
as the fire burns low
You’re trapped in the atmosphere
there’s nowhere left to go

Accustomed to your freedom 
you complain about your fate
As the surgeon grips the scalpel 
it would seem a little late

Looking shocked like pikachu
Just look at what they’ll do to you
Blade - flesh - cutting thru
Plasma draining from the wound

You could be screaming
But no one is listening

A E I O U
Only vowels coming out of you
Hell is real and its coming for you too
You cannot hide anywhere you’re screwed

A E I O U
Only vowels coming out of you
The devil’s real and he’s coming real soon
The universe has a message - you’re thru

A E I O U Vowels 4 Pikachu

Back at the beginning
It came to me in a dream
Lighting struck the camera flashed
I remember everything
We’re somewhere in the story
And the pages tumble forwards
For love or for glory
I will polish up my sword

When the sun comes up
I’ll love you
When the sun goes down
I’ll be with you
Turn your back on me
I’ll walk away
If you love me
I’ll die for you

There’s smoke in the clearing
The burning ashes from a fire
The smell is so nostalgic
The restless embers of desire
There’s a fear inside my stomach
Will you love me forevermore?
Eternity’s a long time
Will you help me to be sure?

(Chorus)

There’s more to the story
But where we’re heading I’m not sure
My cup is overflowing
But of your love, I want more
Time will pass us by
As easy as a stream
My task is now to keep you
I will do anything

(Chorus)

Love

Can you sense it?
The moon
Its glowing outside
Pulling you
Within the womb
She caressed you
She knows you
Wants to hear you like you know how to -

Come with me
We need you to see
We’ve been trying to reach you, baby

Come with me
To a place that’s free
We’ve been trying to reach you, baby

It’s been growing, 
Inside
Outside
The fur
All over you
All over me too

Muzzle

Addicted to the nightmare
The shadow in the veins
Catastrophic metaphysical
Beyond the Stargate
Living in the temporary
Severed from the permanent
This existence is a chemical
Dissolved to make a paint
I wish I was an artist
But this war will never end
Got a muzzle on my snout
That I was born to contemplate
The system acting scared
Like it wants to delete
What it conjured to prepare
Editor cutting the peak

I’m softly 
Caving in
Wearing down
Transforming
You muzzled me
Now I’m complete
Tattooing
Infinity

Suffering my fate
It’s like answering a riddle
Waiting for the day
Error laden coded puzzle
Message from the past
Obvious when dialled in
Tragically delayed
Combatting the decay
Remnants of a dream
Shattered glass on the pavement
A mirror of the self
Twisted image of a demon
Telephonically challenged
Never pick up when you call
Don’t worry I’m the same one
That you met before the fall

Muzzle

mother of pearl

they get all up in my face
at the scene of my disgrace
and proceed to complicate
please just give me what i need
and then leave me in peace
no need to disagree
you've been in a big shot baby
they'll never forget your face
there's no way out give me the gun
no way ooh
please you've taken all my things
how can i disagree
my body barely clings
it must have been an accident
you've taken all my documents
how can i prove my fate
you've been in a big shot baby
they'll never forget your face
where can i go? give me the gun
no way ooh
you've been in a big shot baby
they'll never forget your face
there's no way out give me your hand
no way ooh
