CLAUSTROPHOBIC MORNING

from SONGLAND by TJ Felix

/

about

I HONESTLY I FEEL LIKE I COULD BECOME A CASUALTY OF THE WAR ON DRUGS ANYDAY NOW SO I SPEND EVERY MOMENT ALONE WORKING ON ART IN SOME MANIC EFFORT TO COMMUNICATE ALL THAT I AM BEFORE MY LIFE GOES UP IN SMOKE

MAYBE ART DOES MATTER..? IT'S SUBJECTIVE I GUESS.. I PERSONALLY ONLY SEE ART, OR MORE SPECIFICALLY THE CULTURE THAT SURROUNDS ART, TO BE MORE DESTRUCTIVE THAN ANYTHING.. DOESN'T MATTER.. CAUSE EITHER WAY I SIMPLY NEED AN OUTLET TO KEEP SURVIVING IN THIS HELL WORLD

DESPITE (OR TO SPITE..?) ALL THE IMMENSE HORROR THAT LIFE HAS TO OFFER, I STILL LOVE LIVING & DON'T PLAN ON DIPPING OUT ANYTIME SOON..

WHETHER OR NOT U CHOOSE TO LISTEN

I HOPE U GET SOMETHING FROM IT IF U CHOOSE TO LISTEN THO & ANY $$$ U CAN THROW MY WAY WOULD ALSO BE GREATLY APPRECIATED & WILL HELP ME TO SUSTAINABLY KEEP MAKING MUSIC/ART + SURVIVING THE POST APOCALYPSE

THNX BIG TIME <3

lyrics

what this is & what it was
it still is just because
i'm so broke but so high
that i don't cry when you squeeze my thighs
i borrow your comb i stain your sheets
so far from home when i work these streets

it was the tender age of death defiance
& the never ending rage against the light
now there's nothing left to sacrifice
but yourself unto the night

too many lights burnt out
in a city full of swarmed corners
& i'm so tired of crying out for rusty needles
every claustrophobic morning

1st meal of the day please don't make me pay
for the poor Indians apple & a knuckle sandwich in the rain
it's the 1st snowfall church bell rings
plainclothesman whispers discrete nothings

it was the tender age of death defiance
& the never ending rage against the light
now there's nothing left to sacrifice
but yourself unto the night..

too many lights burnt out
in a city full of swarmed corners
& i'm so tired of crying out for rusty needles
every claustrophobic morning
