can't see it
I gotta let you know it
you try to simplify the feeling to me
now take your time with me
I mean it
it is a constant beeping
don't try to explain piercing to me
you gotta take your time with me
you see it
and now the steam is blowing
you gotta state your problem to me
you won't take your time with me
I scream it
the lid is blown wide open
the sound of silence is deafening
now I take your time
now I'm deaf to every ring
and my baseline is a stinging
to defy the numb and tense
is to find
we all got our lives to go
the beating is to supersede
we all got our lives to go
take your time with me
we all ought to listen
we ought to listen what you say
we all got our lives to go
take your time with me

gotta get yourself somebody that you loathe
folly decked out in all the dressings that you drove
it's all fleeting, that you know
wisdom press pause, I say go
turning up the dial, let the waveform play
let the record show it's nothing that you say
I can't think no, I can't blow
let's just take it slow
phased out I'm fading quick, no sick, but I think I wanna blow some money
steel string and tension spring with exploding sound and the taste of honey
moonlight the horror night, you wanna get your bunny - what's so funny?
wanna get the legs apart, but on second thought, no I don't feel so
spit out the poison (x3)
spit out the poison blood
let it go

Step On Me

scratch bloody from the claws in your left hand
skin burning from the ice in your veins, okay
want more because I've got to be less than
my fire, you know, desire
want you to step on me (x2)
walls close in at the thought of you laughing
your voice, it could drive me insane, okay
sweat pouring and I'm gonna do just what you say
entirely yours, my fire
want you to step on me (x2)
you smash my love
you flatten my heart
I fall in line
you have my life

wanna let chocka take you
I walk
wanna get me to come too
I won't
you're missing time, you're gonna hit your head
boy, you wish that I taught you
I was
waiting for you to come through
I walk
you're missing time, you're gonna hit your head

where is your head?
you'd lose it if it wasn't screwed on
reckless and feckless, what a waste to be
so paranoid
and accusatory
what a joy it is to be nobody
I didn't steal your patience
I didn't steal your peace
and know I take no satisfaction
in being a thief

time listens, time, you got it
why say? you say yeah
you glisten, shine, you got it
why say? you say "but he's so
kind," love
I'll take the air
out of your lungs, you want it
I know you know
all he does is drive, so why do I try
to rely on my peace of mind?
in wicked dreams I scream to the sky
"why?"
all he does (x2)
you walk in the door
I try
how many before?
every reason why
all he does is drive, so why do I try
to rely on my peace of mind?
in wicked dreams I scream to the sky
"why?"
all he does (x3)
I know that life
there's always more
just through the door
you wanna get some
I know it's that time
you say what you say
there's no going back
just once you fall

opulent stink
dripping upon the gold lever
let down the drawbridge into mind
fully awake
I slink along
you bleed and moan down to your foam
where you're from, where you're from
beside a lake
flawless timbre in the daytime wave
where is the pink?
ringing and rushing downriver
pulling apart the feeble heart
thumping the stake
into the chest
the killer's blood flows from the thumb

go to work
work all day
get mowed over
at Circle K
you do not see it
four door sedan
a massive pickup
or minivan
blow the stop sign
squash the bug
no liquid reason
to speak of
no mal intent
no question posed
darkness it looms
in life's shadow
the hand extending
it offers peace
the pumping legs now
with tail between
the fleeing confuse
fleeting control
a withered soul
peel up from the ground, send
the flowers and ashes
take heed of your mind's end

Forbidden Door

high above the portrait
deep inside the home
buried in the basement
when you are alone
fly into the distant
break away the mould
push into the cold shit
never what you're told
no feeling
you're awake
too deep to find
that is your mistake
never ending water
never to be sold
freeze the knob and turn it
hang the frame in door
enter slowly if you want to
there you go
falling to the depth of stone
where you want to be
dark eternal in the moment
never ending sea
hold your breath, it is a sign
kill the fucking ego
you saw it
you saw the crimes
you saw it
disgusted, tugging on the knob
