lyrics

I’m brandishing stomach acid and bile
In a bouquet of coned loose leaf note
My stomach groans like weakened hardwood
A drunken seat occupier with a need to impose
I’ve longed like widows peak eyes to be riddled with holes
Relieved of pressure, like metal, sharp and rigid in space
Taking up these empty clothes, a pretender
Masquerades with sunk chest and sallow face

It’s not life and death, baby, it’s just calculable loss
A chance at bat denied, a force of teeth to the rock
I’ve never known steady breathing, I’m just talking to talk
Like a strangers dream bleating on and on (ooh baby, let’s go)

Some day, will come my prince
To kiss me hard with thin razored lips
And I will wake to shock, then to knowing
Then to absolute mitigation
I want the buildings to leave my eyes
As if tattooed in crude, blown out lines
With a Donnievian angst, with a typewrit “feelin’ fine”
I expunge myself of my insides

Crystallized mass in my sourest cries
Chrysanthemums glaze my fucking jaundiced eyes
What I’d give to pretend that these lines are inspired
But there’s nothing where nothing breathes nothing
(Hey hey hey hey)

Just dumb it down for me
I’m fucking Dracula baby with the plastic teeth
Biting at heels from my throne of the shit in the street
Immobilized by my love for failure in heat
(Hey hey)
Just shrug me off, complete
I’m only harboring shame, fear, guilt and disease
This rotting jaw spreads nothing, only selfish retreat
With all your might and mercy, treat me like the bug delivered hell by your feet
