Someone said I'd have to
Someone said he lied
A kiss for the prophet
And a solemn plot to hide
He lied
I find myself in wonder
Will I burn for what I've done
Or do I hear the trumpets
Of the everlasting son
So I head out to the field
To hang myself in shame
But if not for my secret
Would he even have his name?
He lied

Sun Tzu told us how to win a war
Love your enemy and he won't exist anymore.
So drop that barrel of sunshine on your target
But when you count the dead do me a favor, Don't forget
that
Children and Lovers
Landlords and Brothers
Street Gangs and Sisters
and Graveyard Whistlers
Hustlers and Mothers and
Someday Governors too
are watching you
Manson said just look him in the eye
See that deep inside you is a killer on standby
Call me on my socialist bullshit if you must
But this whole Eye for an Eye thing kind of looks like a bust
cuz
Children and Lovers
Landlords and Brothers
Street Gangs and Sisters
and Graveyard Whistlers
Hustlers and Mothers and
Someday Governors
Princes and Pill Poppers
Homeless Tongue Talkers
Church nuns and Crip Walkers
Poets and Shit Talkers
Marx and Smith
Jedi and Sith
They're just like you

Let's Rest

There is only one sip left,
But it will quench my thirst for now.
There is only one girl left who can slow this avalanche down.
I was walking down the path I'd chosen
(In my infinite wisdom)
When I reached the cliff my mind had frozen
And my legs just kept kicking
Breathing can be a chore
but the river Life is oh so grand
Staying afloat has made me sore
So let's rest on the dam.
There is only one sip left,
but it will quench my thirst for now.
There is only one girl left who can slow this trajectory down.
Float with me
Float with me
Wipe the sand from your eyes
Float with me
Float with me
We'll find what beauty we can find
Float with me
Float with me
Float with me
Float with me
There is only one sip left,
But it will quench my thirst for now.
There is only one girl I love and I think you know her name now...

Stress Relief
It's a boat without a paddle
It's the smallest particle imaginable
Either Satan or Kropotkin
With the charm of Mary Ann Cotton
Dead and Forgotten
Rotten in her bed
Stress Relief
We are congruent but
Slightly Askew
Only a vision that he thought he once knew
A porous perception prenatally brewed
Cremated, cast away and created anew
It comes in glass
It comes to pass
Stress Relief

Christian Estep
He's got the golden cock of triumph
He's got the dirty dick of destiny
He's an Irish Catholic
He is for the death penalty
So if you see him,
You'd better not piss him off
Cuz he'll decapitate you.

Something soft
Something sweet
With a million lies lying at her feet
The first thing you done right
Is to throw it out tonight
Make your brand new start
Take your interest in the arts
I've got a life to live
I got a death to plan
I won't tell you whose
Unless you give me a hand
Something cold
Something Sour
With a million flies multiplying by the hour
Maybe your addiction is the key to your success
Maybe Charles Manson is just a victim of the rest
I know it is unhealthy but maybe I want
Something Deep
Something Black
With a million years lined back to back.

Windstorm take me
Whisk my ashes away
Into a bed of
Poison flower Pollen
Will you bloom
When I atrophy?
Windstorm take me
Whisk these ashes away
Into a sea of
Poison Poppy Pods
Find your Envy
It's not in me
When you find me
Spread my ashes in your
Crack Pipe and smoke me
Feel my afterglow
Feed the Everknown
Bleeding Gushing Slow
Will we ever know?
Will we ever know?

Slumber
What a beautiful thing
I'll trace my footsteps in my slumber
To make Spiral Rings
Echoes of
Foolish Mistakes
Crescendo into cacophony
With every word
Those heroin lips sing
Ringing in my ears
Bringing back my fear
In Winter you will collapse
I will lie face down
In your rubble
And I will relapse

through it all I held your hair
I felt the light shining through your scared
glass eyes
I'm surprised
That you don't have a kind word to say
But what's the difference anyway I'm able
to see
your side
I don't have any plans for the day
And I won't talk to you with nothing to say
A cigarette and an open sky
are much better listeners anyway
through it all it was nothing much
and these words aren't even worth a crippled crutch
and a touch
of balance
Is it really bittersweet
when bitter's really apathetic and
sweet is nothing concrete?
I guess we'll see.
I don't have any plans for today
And I won't keep singing with nothing to say
Another beer and an old friend
They tell a better story anyway.

Is it really worth it
To jump through this hoop
cause this one's on fire
and on the other side:
it's only you
I don't see your point here
You lost me at existence
And you're not convincing me
with your henpecking persistence
but maybe we could get higher
and
brighter
if the drugs weren't on fire
maybe this life could shine brighter
brighter
brighter
brighter
brighter
brighter
brighter
(laughing at self)

Slow down
eyes are low now
feel it change the makeup of your brain
Hold on to the wall now
If you don't fall you won't feel the pain
You're wrong
What you feel isn't pain
why would we glamorize it if so
You've gone
too far now
If you're happy go and let the others know
Tranquility
wrapped like a blanket around shame
Jealousy
is the forefather of fame
and everyone of you wretched souls
Will say the same
I will wipe this deadpan menace
off my face
(Slow down, slow down)
and hope that someday a smile takes its place x4
(I seem to have forgotten my name)

There's a hole in my chest
where old memories rest
And sometimes they pour out
There's a night in that hole
that takes up all the space
and it's pushing this heart out
There was something heavy in the air
on that night that makes it
hard to breathe to this day
And no matter how hard I try
to evict it from me
It begs to stay
Did you get your fill
And if the need arose
could you still kill
And I keep shouting out over
strumming cadences
trying to cast this fucker out
But the hue of a backwoods sky
is buried like a corpse inside
and it's grip's too strong
to even try to fight

Once there was a boy
Who rode the winds of change
Until toxins filled his brain
Now he is a man
Who yearns for the joy
That he could feel as the boy
A lesson for all it is worth:
We're only made of wishes and dirt
You could eat these words for dessert
And once there was a girl
With flowers in her hair
Until those flowers fell out everywhere
When I was so young
I was never told
You'd come into my life
And replace all my silver with gold
A lesson for all that it's worth
We're only made of wishes and dirt
You can keep these words till it hurts
When I was that boy
I was never told
You'd come into my life
And replace all my silvers with gold

Ten degrees already
I hate it when you go
Stay one more night with me
Your name I need not know
And we'll play
Winter's here already
We're face down in the snow
The constable looks up at us from
beneath the river frozen
And we play
And we play
And we play
