- And the Hat Stays On
Funny how such a short time seems like forever-
seems like such a short time..
don't blink
you might not see again.
Don't open your mouth too wide
it might just freeze like that.
So afraid to miss you,
- Go Fuck Yrself
Who's gonna drink till theres nothing left?
Smoke until we turn ourselves to ash?
Fuck like we've run from your hands so long.
That wings might rip right through your back.
Of all my good friends,
too many were acquaintances.
Co-Workers, enemies, secretaries and police.
It takes a mouth about as wide, as the bags under my eyes.
- Spit Survival
Dear boy:
talk in bites.
ill wait for you to bleed potent.
itll take a while to shake it off,
and he wont know i shut up.
i see a good time to spit survival,
pick a rival.
- The Swell And The Breaking
a subtle movement.
from oddity to commoditiy.
we are waving to ourselves from the audience.. there's no need to fight a following sea.
ride it out.
ride it out of here.
but amongst the tide,
we are insignificant,
drowned by our discontent.
- The Water vs. the Anchor
wish that i could take back every drunken night so selfishly keeping myself distant and doubtful and basically an asshole and i tried to stay young and in the womb of a bottle but i just keep on getting older and the bottles keep piling up. it's such a foolish attempt to hold on to a time when idiocy had no consequence. and i'll try to keep singing over the telephone ringing. running from the age i should be embracing (we're all so satisfied to be just barely alive) for lack of anything better to do, for all the shit i have to swallow.. the water vs the anchor
- You Whistle, I'll Shoot
Bring out your dead!
listen up appetite,
youre such a stickler for eating.
the waning and the digesting,
terrible reasons,
and allergic reactions.
ive got daggers for you,
