Turning 03:07
Running through the wheels that turn awry The tap will run you dry The thirst that keeps you up all night Into the doggone daze Indolent writhing body mass The sea is far too wide I caught a fish and threw it back Was that a fish at all I never smelled the salty brine I never felt its scales on mine I never bled into the line I watched the waves 'til time resigned Who's counting all your piled slats? You add a log and light the match But rain keeps falling on your hat Drinks in your head and you float

All Lies In 04:14
To be the venting sentience To be the salt lake sinking in To wash away the blue with acids To see the murky water's refraction All lies in Feel your skin All lies in To be the vital nutrients To be the light that stings the eyelids To hear the birds that sing in silence To feel the magnum ultraviolence All lies in All lies in Feel your skin All lies in

I stopped you in the street Among the swarm of bees I watched you there dancing The wind sang from the trees You brought me to my knees I begged you baby please don't leave Back when I was younger A soft light from within Broke off, asunder Underneath my skin A wild beast strung out On the wilderness And then, at sundown, Caught a lucid glimpse Of the swarm now Buzzing in my head And through the soft light I stopped you in the street Among the swarm of bees I watched you there dancing The wind sang from the trees You brought me to my knees I begged you baby please I caught you in my dreams A shame you had to leave Through the soft light Everything was green With brown of fall nigh

The corner of a naked room Piled high, the plastic stain ballooned A worthy cause of wrinkled sleeves Tomorrow is born in soiled handcuffs Washing my hands 'til rusty Sinking to swim forever upstream Where is the hump of higher love? And still I wonder if I could watch them fuck from above So many solvents in the dream Sometimes I wanna dissolve myself in all of them Sick of this dirty laundry Off in the corner always calling Don't wake up 'cuz I won't try to see the iris in your eye, nascent Another day and I will see the flagrant sun rising Spent my whole life trying to clean And in that time I've turned my room out And I've seen all the eye can see Except for the things that stand inside me As all the horns outside ring I'm reading the book without its binding Don't wake up 'cuz I won't try to see the iris in your eye, nascent Another day and I will see the flagrant sun rising

Sitting on the rooftop and I, and I Sitting on the rooftop and I can't sing A note before it can ring And what if I would die? Sitting on the rooftop a violet sky All the clouds are bright and the air is dry And faced with an iron plight I wonder if I could climb To your bedside Standing on the rooftop I'm by your side Counting all the dew drops between your eyes And hoping they'll never dry I'm caught in a fly-by-night The towering scattered lines So listlessly calcified

Here #2 09:07
Sure feels good to be here in your arms Sure feels good to be here Sure feels good to be here in your arms Sure feels good to be here Sure feels good to be here in your arms Take my time to be here Sure feels good to be here in your arms Take my time to be here Here in your arms Sure feels good to be here

Today 04:39
Yes, no, yes Go on loving Separated berated by the fadedness I anticipated Gone get it a fellated belated renovated Wakin' and bakin' I ain't make it today and

Burnt Rubber 05:30
Standing pointlessly and pointed in the other Not another Was anointed but sits under covers Away from others Disappointment in the undiscovered Never duller The radiation leaves the drying leaflets colored Discolored So what's the point of making inroads if they end in burnt rubber? I'm tired of hiding in the fire of the burning curvature The mask it makes your face look so fucked up Tough luck The adulation you received, enough, Never enough But now you're pointed in the direction of the other Not another Your voice it creaks and radiates the wrong colors All the colors So what's the point of making inroads if they end in burnt rubber? I'm tired of hiding in the fire of the burning curvature Someday, I'll be floating free In an infinite space Where you want me to be, hopefully Where will we be?

Blank 03:21
Who needs such a distant choke? Fading so faithfully into a blank What gave in to be revoked? Something to hide beneath, invisible Set up, looking in, through the crown To make a way around What's left there to do? Feeling new every time I rise the same You give everything you've got Sometimes I'm losing sleep sitting down Why be such an island when You're surrounded by the sea in which to drown? Set up, looking in, through the crown To make a way around What's left there to do? Feeling new every time I rise the same
