drench your skin in self esteem paint hang up your clothes to become a saint i dont think that they know your name they will all know your name i am drenched in trash water it shouldnt matter. sugared the pill, still cannot swallow where ever your wisdom goes i'm one to follow on pins and needles, you know my motto now i've siphoned out all of my sympathy until i'm spent and hollowed you were the first one you'll be the last one, too
2.
Activator 02:25
activate decision making fall asleep to your wakening this wind is not breath taking the spine snaps, it will blink, it will collapse why'd you go and kill your heroes? idolize the straight and narrow give me all your things to borrow i stole your thoughts just to get my point across we knew it was tried in true. when falling, do the willing wonder? i know we did when we were just barely thinking we walked across the void and empty. it wasnt very satisfying i packed my bags, this place i'm not coming back.
3.
Beep Boop 03:08
i don't know if this is hell but i know it's not heaven, they'd never let you in! sit down in the corner. here's a joke for you. if i told you i was kidding, would you even listen? all these papers lie in scatters and tatters on the floor it used to mean so much, but nothing really does anymore. they call him a recidivist! well, he and his syndicate say they're sick of this! i told you i was just kidding feel free not to listen. i saw a face just like yours. i almost dropped dead when it walked away. i've been replaced til another day.
4.
Derail! 02:33
spit in the sink for right now, soothe with a drink, i'm writing a biography-a-kind-of-fable until you derail! speak openly! or criticize! i'm neutral; in another dimension spit in the sink, i hate these teeth smooth out the kinks, i gotta. i'm trying not to think, it makes me stable. spit in the sink for right now, i think i will spit in the sink.
5.
everything is cumulative zero is definitive. wait, you're in the right place, stay seated, don't leave us. annihilate the simple breath like them. we are worth much more respect, it's in the math. you are a taste of your own medicine, space out in the mess that you have been in. allure you with a lot of alliteration boil it down to rusted superstition allude to everything that is religious well i'm starkly sure you wont convince me of it everything is cumulative, isn't it?
6.
Bloodshot 02:40
my eyes roll off, bloodshot this place is my best home free to simmer my mind to clear my throat i hear transcendent sounds from outside, with my windows pulled down, i sink into the ground there is no one around to light another one hey! your black teeth, my yellow tongue we seep into their giant lungs and all the men we've walked among they think our words are still to young. hey!
7.
Ocean Water 01:50
i did a prayer-nod to a not-there god it is a lost cause, amen selah i need my tooth fixed or i'm gonna lose it. i cannot soothe it amen im ugly like the ocean water so ugly why do i bother? im ugly just like the ocean sink your boat with all of my opinions i know you didnt want my opinion
8.
forget the flourished forest lush den! fixate on the thorns and how they dig my skin id race the sun but i would never win the skull cracks open. the skull cracks open, it's broken. it bites so close eyes and hide. i'm frightened, enlightened, i will hide under the field's moonlight. i will boil earth i will pet the fur, and the skin
9.
Slugfest 04:49
are you repose in your Procrustean bed? i should cut off your arms and your legs. the story fits, hit or miss, circuitous trace a circle so wide that you will never finish. what is this? a slugfest? i look in from the water, what is this? this is one big slug fest not impressed shake my fist i look bored, but i have never been this nervous before. nothing is cohesive. the mouth falls out like autumn leaves fall down, nothing is cohesive. why such the slugfest? nothing is cohesive.
10.
Mars Dreams 04:02
the blister brain pops open it leaks into the middle of the road again it rains and sends drainage to bend the blister brain is wet and swollen the waves lave a bad omen the blister brain is turbulent the water speaks in motion no-go mountains or treees believe nothing obviously talking, voices, calming babe falls out of tree, goes to sleep and the brain leaks it'll take her into the sewers if you whisper, you can hear them, they are laughing a-ha-ha-ha! you can find them if you're willing, if you want to, you can wander. you can visit them out in the sewers. mars dreams of everything.
