a collaboration with my buddy, recorded solo. borrowed some words in the bridge from foxing. thanks

shots fired! (another acoustic..)

sitting listening to lo fi you-tube stations and singing my stuff. 

am i not alone?

...my head in my hands and eyes open.  Truly yours, it's a skill unlike most.  Where I do not benefit, only regret the things I love most..here and hungry. That type of situatio where lighting fires inside your own home proves unadvised.  You can count spiders and sleep only when required.  God spoke to me and said I'm "better off starving here."
If God answered my prayers he'd take me straight to you. Yet, if he answers your prayers, he'd do nothing of the sort just because I wanted him to.  And so...
Your gravity pulls me toward reason as unevasive seasons change without my permission.  Waking to sprouting flowers never planted or planned for with responsibility I'll use to waste your time.  Taste acquired through repetition and hungry only for you.  I'm not an angry girl...you said your goodbyes, "fuck kingdom come!'  God spoke and said I'm "better off starving here."
So, waiting seems an unlikely option to get what I want.  Apparently my feeding here has to be supervised......
and I'd rather be starving!!!

No Benefit

cut along her perforated lines..
she don't know her own direction
sink below these fault lines
exactly as she says to do

pick up the pieces you left behind
to show how much you despise them

pay no mind to those who are to blame
mark the graves of those who you want to remember
promise them you'll clear their names
as soon as you walk through heavens gate

and then laugh at the devil 
and tell him nobody else can leave

Perforated Lines

I wrote disaster
carved it on the wall
I wrote disaster 
in every song

I am flood and rage 
that God surely intended for you
I am vicious teeth and hunger
but nothing to consume

your glorious intentions fail
cloak and dagger's hidden veil

I wrote disaster
burned it on the wall
I wrote disaster
sung it in every song

I am conceit and greed
I want selfishly ..You in every way
I cut, straight thru
a razor's dull edge to blame

stand still, you revolve around me
I miss you and your.. Almost anything

I wrote disaster
Fucking carved it into the wall
I wrote disaster
In every single song

shots fired! (another acoustic..)
