Lyrics:
Secular pills divide my time
Dracula’s hip debauch controls the fear
Miniature cleft regarding my
Character break repeat intent to sear
Little bit in now bleach it out
Hit me again, again I’m almost here

Changing you is all I ever desired
But I saw through
Like you never had this either

Secular pills divide my time
Dracula’s hip debauch controls the fear
Miniature cleft regarding my
Character break repeat intent to sear

Hit it again a little bit longer
Hit it again just push it in softer
Lean on the crutch and hobble along now
When it wash out we’ll see who lived longer
Hey…

Changing you is all I ever desired
But I saw through
Like you never had this either

Sick and wasting energy
Not the same as you
Sick of wasting energy 
Just paying the dues

As you’re carryin’ on
I’m half discerning the words
I relinquish myself 
Into the arms of the world
Laughin’ carryin’ on
Half the things that you said
Split a hole in our lives
Guess we’re better off dead

Changing you is all I ever desired
But I saw through
Like you never had this either

Morphine EP

My Riad

The Oxford Coma - My Riad

From the album Everything Out of Tune, out Friday, October 13. Recorded by Steve Albini. Features Sacha Dunable of Intronaut on guitar.

Lyrics:
Rattle me so
Rid em and go
Disguising enemy
a Wraith so pastured 
Dons a riddle-me-site

A row
Glass bones smash box
Inchworm cord aux
Pastor cock sox
So much was promised
So much was promised to me

Pass Sycophant way 
Count prizes 
One of these old souls
(Sitting in the way)
And counting his Teeth
Nine thousand 
Most of them old gold 
Grinning at his luck
I eye eyes (sunken from memory (sitting in the back))
When he went sleep
Drilled all of them one at time pulled
Now he just pretends

Swing high Iodine
Swing high cyanide 
Bullets aren’t cheap
Spirit centerfold 
God just bless the fools
Nonesuch
Center infinite
Cancer killed the rat 
Cradle infamy, steal some pills to sleep
Now you donate to rape-y charity

Send us some episodes
They think for me
Just got a little distracted at
Grabbing moneyman
That soul is quite a set of legs
They summon sex and the cold
Resentment from rejected whites 
Scoop rifles and kill to fill that hole

Pass Sycophant way 
Count prizes 
One of these old souls
(Sitting in the way)
And counting his Teeth
Nine thousand 
Most of them old gold 
Grinning at his luck
I eye eyes (sunken from memory (sitting in the back))
When he went sleep
Drilled all of them one at time pulled
Now he just pretends more

C’mon jaw c’mon jaw you’re almost there

Trauma (Maybe I'm Forgetting Something)

From the album Everything Out of Tune, out Friday, October 13. Recorded by Steve Albini.

Lyrics:
Come and see all the rage
Better show couldn’t be expected
Networked harder than all those evolved
Bitterness takes hold
Ripped away my youth
Currency delivered with a bow

Take a bow
Raise a stage
But just for us
I can see that red door in your
Label gown
Just one more sordid out 
Of all the wailing 
And the drone intentions
Ever-gaping red door in your head

Stole my magic
Hard work pageants
With non-combatants
Sold you whole

I suppose you don’t know

Take a bow
Raise a stage
But just for us
I can see that red door in your
Label gown
Just one more sordid out 
Of all the wailing 
And the drone intentions
Ever-gaping red door in your head
