I read a book with hollow gaze
I lie at ease in a small dark space
No light found or needed
No food, or curtain beaded.

It's dark in here but I'm OK
No morning comes, no nasty day
No phone, no bills ever
Safe and snug below the weather.

I lie and read for quite a while
The book's about a crocodile
I read aloud with hollow eyes
I lie at ease under dark skies.

And when I'm done, the dark goes on
I'd like to break out into song
My vocal chords are not all there
I need to sing without the air.

It's dark in here but I'm OK
No morning comes, no nasty day
No food, no bills ever
Safe and snug below the weather.

I lie at ease in a small dark space
Below a tombstone, name erased
No lack of time, no moment speeded
No phone, no curtain beaded.

I lie and read for quite a while
The book's about a crocodile
I read aloud with hollow eyes
I lie at ease under dark skies.

Visit neighbours, next hole in line
Write memoirs, have the time
Sing and talk and carry on
One day I'll leave, be gone.

One day I'll leave to travel on
One day, when the bones are gone
One day, when all is dust
I'll leave then without a fuss.

@whoisoverlife x matzmow When I Was Around

There's a lady that sleeps
A lady that knows
A lady that waits
For the tides that flow.

She waits in a field
She waits by the sea
She waits for the ships
So tall and so free.

She waits in the shadows
She waits for the crow
She waits in the barrows
With her sisters below.

She waits for a message
She waits for a flight
She's a mother of mercy
At the dimming of light.

She arrives in the morning
In early afternoon
She arrives with an answer
That none can undo.

There’s a lady that waits
For me and for you
She waits silent
Amidst morning dew.

There's a lady that sleeps
A lady that knows
A lady that waits
With her sisters below.

She waits in a field
She waits by the sea
She waits for the ships
So tall and so free.

There’s a lady that waits
Amidst morning dew
She waits silent
For me and for you.

Speaking with my lawyer
Monday 30 December 2024

I can see a golden city
On the horizon far away
I think that I could reach it 
If I could sleep just one more day.

Speaking with my lawyer
He says be careful what I say
Should I meet up with the troll king
As I go along my way.

I’ll climb a golden mountain
Climb it all the way
When I reach the fountain
I’ll sit there all the day.

Speaking with my lawyer
He advised me what to say
When talking with the troll king
Just don’t look away.

I can see a golden city
On the horizon far away
I think that I could reach it 
If I could sleep just one more day.

I’m a radiation man
Born just yesterday
In a bright flash of light
That took my life away.

That’s my face before it all
In the midst of that light
Scorch marks on a wall
Died and reborn last night.

I’m a radiation man
Birthed by a fiery knife
Not sure that I understand
All that happened in my life.

Walking in a city of ruins
Looking for someone new
Melted walls and dusty tombs
Surely there was more to do.

I can walk and even talk
There’s no one here to see
In a city made of chalk
There’s not much left for me.

City’s dead but a siren goes
Feel it beneath my feet
Echoing in caverns low
Unpeople wake from sleep.

Unpeople will soon be up
Not just to live and die
Angels of destructive thrust
Built to pluck out enemy eyes.

I’ll be gone before they rise
Journey onwards as I will
Shake off this city wise
Find solace on some hill.

I’m a radiation man
Born just yesterday
In a bright flash of light
That took my life away.


Radiation man r3

I advanced east into the setting sun
Climbed up stairs from roof to ground
Strove for heaven and turned around
Embraced freedom without a sound.

Became a Buddhist by worshipping time
I drank water and then I drank wine
Swam the Nile, washed up on the shore
Recited the alphabet for an encore.

I turned right and inside out
Whispered until it became a shout
Shuffled cards all day in the square
Wrote three books a week for millionaires.

Began with nothing, won every race
Times changed; I lost my place
Gave up trying to end my life
Played the bagpipes, danced with a knife.

I grew older until I became young
Relied on intuition until it became numb
Exercised until I lost the thread
Gave up running and dined instead.

I never left a table full or empty
I never met a person but I met plenty
Ran away for another season
Always looking for a better reason.

I have a ton of songs I been working on and I don’t really want to post on SoundCloud since the AI learning but will do covers I guess.

Pretend We’re Dead

hope freestyle_celeyang

We walked downhill
To the City of God
The way was steep
The gradient odd.

Down that hill
Steep and cold
Ever closer
To that city old.

Massive buildings
Shady paths
Puzzling signposts
No live hearths.

 
Walked along
Narrow lanes
Twisted into 
Strange arrays.

Everywhere
Empty halls
Empty windows
Empty doors.

Angelic names
Above the frames
Flower beds
Not maintained.

 
City of gardens
Now a mausoleum
For all those lost
In eternal dream.

At city’s edge
We found Paradise Park
Apple trees
An antique plaque.

Saying, here
Adam and Eve
Met a serpent
Whom they did believe.

And from here
They did depart
This was the straw
That broke the city’s heart.
