Cage
02:22
|

|
the smoke will burn my face off
i wonder how much it will cost
to put it back on my face
i should have not opened the cage
i saw you leaving with another guy yeah
he seems nice
the kind to slip his finger
down your back
into your pants

Numbers
04:15
|
|||
|
no feeling
march like a number
a number
remember
value nothing more
killed by hunters
imagine like a number
a sleeper
a slumber
sleep forever more
just like me
hang from trees
like the ocean floating further out
into parted sea
cause you're crawling
crawling...
no feeling
busy people peeling
and peeling
and stealing
out of their own hearts
cause you're falling
falling...

Look
02:56
|
|||
|
walk down the street staring down and
see a big and he looks real mad and hard
on the outside
but hes kind on the inside
you know youll feel better if you just get..
you know youll feel better if you just give up (get up)
standing on her feet
on the cold ground
wont look at me when my hairs real
messy and frizzy on the outside
but its still wet on the inside
youre just too dumb to think it
youre just to numb to tell
look at the fire it burns you
look at the fire it hurts you
look at the fire it eats you up up up

Pablo The Moon Frog

this is my frog and his name is pablo
hes from the moon and he likes to eat nachos
he scratches my back
and i lick his
then i see funny colors and
i feel my body drift
this is my girl and i dont know her name yet
shes the sweetest and i love her to her last breath
she gives me kisses when i feel real bad
but quickly disappears when i like pablo's back
all my funny friends are dead
i guess they laughed themselves to death
wonder wonder where they went
after they lost their heads
(after they reached the end)
this is my game that i play when im angry
its not very fun but its helps to pass the time
maybe when im older i wont have to play it anymore
maybe when im older i wont have to live this anymore

Daydream Letters
03:10
|
|||
|
she comes out always asking me to kiss her on the mouth
out loud i turn and no one is around
she cries and asks will you look me in the eyes
she tries
but her hands start gouging out her eyes
this is gods plan
holding her eyes out with her hands
this is gods plan
say that you love him til the end
i scream and run inside and turn on the tv
i see what is black and what is white upon the screen
i think that life is not cut out for me
i read from the big book trying to tell me
this is my plan
im gonna kill you with my hands
this is my plan
say that you love me til the end

pale skies
bring the best out in your eyes
and there no light...
stay in bed i will
obey the rest
i will love what i dread
descend is the best thing from the end
of these past times...
no say and the best is to decay into
half lives...

Lemons
03:19
|
|||
|
open the bathroom door
floating
and my feet dont touch the floor
hands and fingers
drifting in the corridor
you can find the reason from your actions or
sighing one last time
its just a habit
not responding
is your lime
to all your lemons
dialing on the line
its just three numbers
the apartment shouldnt be hard to find
never meant to last
foreshadows moments where the
good things burn and crash
and we can recollect
the selfish and the bad
and you can think away the person you once had
thoughtless on the path
the only thing that moves is
panic in the draft
it always blows at me
and dander in the shaft
it builds and builds until
the air ceases to move past

Caravan
02:38
|
|||
|
in the back of the caravan
tying knots and roping tender hands
face down in the garden
youll move but not for long
thought i knew you
i dont know you
you say im perfect
watch what you do

Ghost
03:11
|
|||
|
swinging mass of flesh
hangs softly from the oak
pull my body down and
close my eyes
leave your loving mark
upon a clenching rope
caress my body back to life
without a soul
you pass right though me
i know youre there
upon the same plane of existence
we'll be one
i ache with sorrow
as i miss the days i miss
kill my anger with your yearn for one last kiss
break my body burn the bones inside your head
hear my calling in the strokes on autumn wind

Stay
03:42
|
|||
|
clover that masks all the odor
dead mountains still growing and
rest on my shoulders and rest on the
pieces of color that easily color
the wind and the water
my constant disorder
dangerous chemicals into my veins
i am looking at nothing
and feeling the same
pumping
dangerous chemicals into my veins
i see lights effects change but then
you stay the same
playing prey
then just dies and decays
yeah well it stays the same and then
it goes away
then youll follow my orders and
like all my answers
i want to control you...
