Soil

The tears make the dirt
Of soiled hearts
Sprout weeds
That spread their seeds
Oh lord
Let their be rain
To wash away
Everything
I built my ark
The termites bite my wood
Planks for limbs
Save me from sin
Blood inside the wash basin
Here comes the man made of tin
Here comes the man made of shit
Here comes the man he’s been hit
Smearing blood across the mirror
Feelings of the inferior
Self made love hope your superior
Self made love is your theory
Fall into the suprematism square
Fall into the circus fair
The sun shines with malicious intent
The angel asteroid begins its descent

The angel gave me a razor blade from the trash
He told me to use it, told me it wasn’t rash
The angel’s joints are rusted with air
The angel’s face is scarred and fair
The angel’s wings are burnt from the sun
If it’s too painful the angel will bring a gun
Bring me home
Fill this hole with a molten rock
Bring me home
Life stands on the decayed cock
Bring me home
How much ammo do you have in stock
Bring me home
Dress me up in your favorite frock

Blotches In Your Eyes

Do you feel the blotches in your eyes
From staring at the sun your heart beats hard inside
Do you feel a wish coming through
Do you feel a fantasy too
Do you feel the blotches in your eyes
From the poking dexterity of fingers
Do you feel a love for all
Do you feel humanity’s fall
Do you feel the sun on your skin
The plants survived through photosynthesis
Do you feel the burns on your arms
Do you feel that people have charm
Do you feel the gun to your head
Elevated conception of your mind’s dread
Do you feel the scar on your cheek
Do you feel extra meek

Bright Eyes/Dark Eyes
03:07
|

|
I wish someone with bright eyes would see
I wish someone with dark eyes would see me
I wish I could take out all eyes
I wish my brain disconnected from everything
I can’t scream with this belt around my neck
Involuntary erection no hope inside the pants
At his discretion he took a pill and slept
I wish someone with no eyes would hear me
Sound waves are suddenly clearer
The salt water on glass cut feet
I drew blood on the sheet
