(Crowd noise)
Now into a mosh pit
dance all the tiny fish and flowers
and it sinks, awh
The movie is over
but we’re still on the screen
I lost my love dance
Worst thing since I lost it
Is to hang my heart and dry it
And the closet mop
Into a venue
Dance all the legless camera holders
With their screens on
Sing songs in retrospect (sing songs in retrospect)
All the lyrics we’ve outlived (all the lyrics we’ve outlived)
But we sing on

I’m breakin’ my knee caps
Don’t send me to rehab
It’s the last thing I will do before I wake back up
Enough of the offset, paranoid neighbors
I’m pullin’ my teeth out
Don't send me to church
Cut feet, I didn’t
I’ll never finish reading
I can't stop laughing, won’t start frowning
It couldn't hurt to say hello
I’m rubbing dirt on the bug bites,
Tricking myself into thinking
there’s no more brilliance inside a city of silence
But i can't do the cold, alone in the rainfall
The clouds are turning into streams now
My head tells me something
Why do I believe it?
I'm just a speck of a species
I’m just young
I know there’s room for improvement
And better ways to deal with trouble
It couldn’t hurt for me to say hello

Your coin saved up for laundry’s
now your money used for candy
Don't you dream of me being too far?
Burnt my toe on the coldest lightbulb
You’re talking same beginnings
Really it's not entertaining
You wanna feel a broken scab?
Come on
Don’t you see the snakes forming on your skin?
All your crime’s got a coupled companion
Lost a cousin’s love to the syringe
Come on, heirlooms need blood to live
Really, it’s like an arrangement
Really, it’s not entertaining
You wanna see a tomato tree?
Its roots are made from bones and genes

Bring your own bloodstains (bring your own bloodstains)
Ridin’ ‘round with the dead ones (ride around)
Now they need some armor (ahhhhh)
This time stronger (this time stronger)
And won’t catch fire (won’t catch fire)
Last year in the muddy (ahhhhh)
You feelin’ the light go? (feelin’ the light go)
Enough stories for sleepin’ (stories)
Dream of the sun exploding (ahhhhh)
You’re so scared of talkin’
Whatcha doin’ for dinner?
Can I come over early? (ahhhhh)

I don’t wanna get into your car
You’re driving too fast, too far
They’re waiting in there for me with guns
I’m dodging their bullets
I’m dodging their bullets
We’re having races to the top
I don’t think I can hold my breath
There are better places to run
But then they drop them
But then they drop them

Another answer may do you some good
Wouldn’t you ask for experience?
Back to me every time,
Though I didn’t ask for it
A dead end is a way out
Pick your stick
A hole into a bucket
Watered well
Dreamt of a fire, drew her some blood
This time in the morning
It’s bones at night
Caught in a fistfight?
I’ll sell you some wood
Make up some butter
For stronger arms
A hole into a bucket
Watered well
No sleeping
Go there after, go there now
Now be here

I spent my time around I have lived some lives around
Now it’s time to break the circle into the snake of impossibility I’m bringing all my fear outside of me
I dreamed about my time alone so I had screamed about my time alone
There’s this serpent of duality spring loaded from our teeth to knees and it’ll send me to the sky of endless air
Oh the hoax I had bought into was being around was loving you but being is loving everyone and around is just a body’s task and love is what the soul amassed but a soul just isn’t body bound that’s why I Will Have Been Being Around
Had you seen the way the tree displayed the coming of the coldest days? Suddenly occurring unity’s absorbing leaves em leafless and loving underground
The fates of flakes in fields of snow the sun cremates individuals but two hydrogen are gonna bind to oxygen on planets time could they find a blackhole beyond the dome?
As Christ in cosmos melts a way vajrasattva’s internal flame flings photons into streams
The sky colors the ocean a cycle is in motion
(a dew, I do, aux des) a top a largest Ferris wheel Around and Being Been and Having Will

You shouldn't be driving high
Powder your churches, stole the metal
Missouri winter wheat
Colors that feel just like shelves of dust
At home, you're sick
Don't have the energy to take the bus
Then another long ride home
I got tired of leaving in the dark
And you feel like someone’s hidin’ ‘round in the bushes
I bet she keeps time
I wash my washcloths
And they say these things will happen to me someday
I wish I could tell you
It runs in the family

Step to a hole in the wall
Manage my speed as I take it
Hold on,
Didn't understand?
Or was it understated?
Think I got it too tight
Maybe I’m just pulling too gently
Take it back,
I don’t think you meant it
It’s just something you’re thinking
Now I’m eating alone
I woke up at the bottom of the bed
Dirt’s under my fingers, having thoughts
I have no reason to cleanse
Now I’m counting alone
All feeling’s feelin’ rusty once again
I think I feel it but you’re so far away

Somber Slumber

Rain in a blue sun
Sleep on a dirty carpet
Replaced by the moon
Sleep softly
And you fall right back to Earth
His whiskers are full
And listens through a mirror
And hopes not to drown
With serious thoughts
And you fall right back to Earth
His whiskers are full
He listens to the mirror
Tries not to fly
With mysterious thought
And you fall...
