Haunted Honor-

Just take a stab, I'm only air, I cannot see the marchers 
Coming in
Coming for me
Just choke me stiff, I am an artifact refusing my own case again
I'll swallow shards of shade to collocate the light inside me
Cut it up
Cut it for me
Just take your place in line
I'm busy with the parasites reciting me.

The sirens stay in my intestines
taking me away

Please lift your aim, I'm only concrete, I will bless the bullet
Coming out
Coming at me
Please beat me clean, I am a consequence of sweet survival caving in
I chew on covenants to supplement my sanctimony
Cross it out
Cross it for me
Please take a number, I'm preoccupied, the alphabet is slighting me

The sirens stay in my intestines
taking me away

Haunted honor

Just take a stab I'm only air

Haunted Honor

Turn the train around
I dream you’ll disappear
I want you to
and I want you

I’m small,
I feel alive
It’s not right
it can’t be right
to know you
and I know you

You, I fear still

I can’t let the mess come back again,
ever again

drop

In swarm I spun with with the question marks
I was cradling,
while the mess I’d bled sung a song between my knees,
I saw them rife with ration and reason.
I’ll get high off cold if I see them 
toss around that warmth I’m allergic to.

Since the night you chose to set me straight,
to put me in my place,
while I wiped my eyes with the lights that sharper made
all the distance you were unpinning,
so the bottle jacks could stop spinning,
I’ve been serving slices and strangling lips.

Yuletide

It stole you
I’m breaking dirty
I wore you away

Tread light around the oceans of sound I make
I know you 
don't trust me

One more chip falls down

I’m glad you fell in love with "god" again 
I’m glad that you're in Awe again 
I wanted to relate

So I’m saying 
that I’m grateful for my sustenance, 
but grateful I got rough again, I am
And I hate it

We're both soldiers fighting the same war
So why am I the only one shooting?
Just tell me straight up.

It wants you
I’ll take your breather
I torched you to flames

Make ties with all distant mountains and walls you place 
I know you
don't trust me

One less card to pick up

I’m mad I fell for what your body said 
I’m mad that you are honest and 
I love it all the same

And I'm urging you to
keep a little distance soon
But keeping still a space for you, I am, 
and I hate it

We're both soldiers fighting the same war
So why am I the only one shooting?
Just tell me straight up.

Turn around and move away, away
Away with fast and steady paces 
Or learn about the trade 
the way, the way
The way I elevate the places

But you tread lightly
You tread so lightly

N.Y.E

I ate your dirt

I ate your dirt, I made you clean
Long gone are days of my delays
and my keeping a blank slate for you
I spread myself, you entered me
Now I am dense, drowning my senses,
stuffing dreams that I made of you

They won't pay me if I don't smile,
so I stayed a while until I could
drain my mistakes all over me
you're five days clean, I'm gone

I sucked the life out of my shame
It left me empty then it drenched me
I obtained something heavier
I held my feet over the flame
you kindled strong, with purpose wrong,
you felt unchanged, so you left me there

They will hate me when I'm on trial
One hand on the Bible as if I could
beat up my face, caress my name
You're six days sane, I'm not
