GUIDING STAR

with everything ive seen
i may never get clean
im a junkie w no mommy
im a plague upon this city
wanting to die is part of being alive
u said “let’s get high, ill pitch in my last five”
it’ll be alright
we’ll lobotomize our minds
im full of fear since the last time i saw clearly
but since i forgot ur eyes
i can laugh sincerely
who knows if we’ll ever see each other again
let’s party tonight if we’re still alive by then
like a guiding star i know ur already dead

INCORPOREAL DANCER

ive come a long way
from saying i’d kill myself if i had the guts
but wut can i say
im ur lil cornucopia of cuts
here i am for now
& i know in my heart
if i rly wanted to die, i’d be dead
but neither life or death can keep us apart
wont u come claim this still beating heart?
i dont need a cage to feel safe
i dont need a slave to feel loved
i dont need
i dont need the stars to align
im not looking for an answer
in the pine, in the pine
im ur incorporeal dancer
but not every anomaly is a sign

ASTROTURFIN'
02:28

they created a problem
to get a reaction
so youd beg for a solution
& create a distraction
they planted conspiricies like seeds
in our tv screens & newsfeeds
we never thought that they'd take root
& now we worship demons in suits
astroturfin
look up & see the bottomline
there is nothing higher
look around & all is dying
we're all fodder for hellfire
they planted conspiricies like seeds
in our tv screens & newsfeeds
we never thought that they'd take root
but now we've got an abundance of strange fruit

REDNECK ASTROLOGY
02:11
|
|||
|
can i trust u to tell apart
the illness of my mind
& the clarity of my heart?
can i trust u to tell me the truth?
I’d follow u thru death
so stop wasting my youth
fire & lightning light my path
I’d burn myself down just to make u laugh
u add & subtract w colonial math
dont try to understand me
w ur redneck astrology
i need a day to weep, to sleep
& to reap wut I sow
every goddamn day,
another death of someone i used to know
ur sitting in a glass house
on a pile of stones
one day they’ll just sweep away
all the broken glass & ur grey bones

BUM TICKER
03:19
|
|||
|
suffering does not humble or embolden us
if we never manage to break it
handcuffed to a radiator & im acting tough
i’ll deal w it later, i know none of us will make it
fight the future
escape the past
everything must go
nothing’s built to last
running thru the jungle, or rotting in the street
trying not to fuck over every person u meet
but we’re all just creatures who have got to eat
do u feel the earth shiver under this cold citys concrete?
bum ticker
(death is not the enemy)
bum ticker
(time’s up, death has come to set u free)

GIVE MY LIFE BACK
03:11
|
|||
|
it’s too hard to flush
the drugs that i bought
to calm me down
cause it’s too fukin much
the war that i fought
to get downtown
give my life back
ur caught thru & i’m frail
my captured bones suddenly brail
can i trust my skeleton to tell my tale
before it’s pulverized to dust?
they built this world for us to fail
all silence here is a lie
i bashed in my cranium
a promise,
a threat,
an ultimatum
give my life back
