The Map
02:28
|
|||
recognize you
by familiar edges torn
i study you as you unfold
i will harvest you in all your forms
to understand the truth
and to write a paper speculating on marx's theories' implications on the truth and it's relationship to capitalism as a means to alter the truth in a democratic capitalistic society such as the one we reside in and whether complete access to the truth means more truth or distilling of truth since the masses are generally stupid and whether the truth will be held by the bourgeois or the proletariat and other things i dont care about
when i'm done...
and it all feels
so goddamn contrived
feelin kinda swallowed alive
yea i get it,
history repeats itself
so why are you?
fuck everything
or so i'm told
watch the map unfold

Ouroboros
03:17
|
|||
oh what a beautiful sideways glance, golden snake ring
that teeth-sunk-into-flesh kind of look you get when you're undressed
and in a sense, you feel it
gone for a while, you know everything i said about the new world?
its a lie

Feelin' Groovy
01:36
|

i'll love my lover til i find another,
and there we will hover,
disguise it like its undercover,
ill love my new lover
until she bores me
same ol' damn story
uncap my forty
nothings like the movies
though we were feelin' groovy
did it like my duty
you moved right through me
nothings like the movies
theres nothing that can move me
come closer to me
i hope you move right through me

dusky skeleton landscape
a pan to the left on all important characters
their facial expressions vary
a moment you're forced to marry
some eyes bend inwards as if to cry
others, black hole open mouth god stares
some didnt care
many became stone
still the camera pans on
their awed by the place they called "Earth"

Skinchanger/Avocado
02:23
|
|||
well you're all green and black
so soft and so mad
you've got a heart that's like steel
and the rest is a meal
you were lookin' so prime
i had to make you all mine
but then i heard through the breeze
they tore you right from your tree
so swallow your pride and just flee
|

a constellation of freckles blinkin in the aether, reflected neath the oceans surface flickering as the waves roll across the projections in steady meter, as each old word rolls out of bed into a predictable grave,
you and i, we stretch our limbs into horizons, the edge of seas, and know we're not ends or beginnings. still the fear returns that with you so distant and happily free, what is there still to talk about? what is there still to burn? we linger on for the view because it is beautiful to see, the forest still ablaze on distant cays, unable to break its gaze, it gazes into me
-----
you told me to wait outside, so i waited for you, quickly the hours passed by and i knew i was fooled. somehow the dark clouds communicated, through yawning or whispering, maybe morse code with the light, somehow they knew how patiently i'd waited, cause it didnt rain til i got inside
oh what a lucky break cause the house was on fire, i headed straight to my room, somehow i knew what i would find, i didn't even look for you.
deep in the belly of a star, or so it would seem, like the snake that ate its tail the blaze fed on the fire as i watched myself asleep

me and a couple o' animals had ascended to the top of the mountain in the distance, oh we sang with the stars and baptized in the view we look upon the land as children, but it all looks so far away, blurs in the distance

Landfill
04:55
|
|||
led me to the landfill with your mourning i's
singin' sweet songs of the dead angels you piled inside
even the purest kept secret lovers, though beneath the dirt they hide
and i didn't turn to dust, though i grit my teeth and tried
with your ghostlike face and your coastline eyes
i watched you fade 'neath the wet kiss of the tide
in your funeral black dress your breasts fall and rise
and i watch you fly
|
||||

i'm slippin out of focus
and into your hand as we drift across the room,
and if we met the edge i'd face it with you
but its the point you've driven me to.
faces melt away and drip on my shirt
i act surprised you pretend to be hurt.
our tongues come untied and we distract ourselves for a while
each and every lie made you smile
ohohoh
you say "nothing" and i dwell upon "it"
into the secret holes, nobody follows
i try to figure out the shape of my sorrow
the face is staring at me through the swiss cheese of the sea
and when you look at me i can only see the skeleton underneath
