sister sister
you're my, you're my falling star
come to pappa
sister sister you’re tearing me apart
toy for pappa
they can never find out
they can never find out
sister sister hanging, banging on the wall
bad for pappa
sigh a farewell sister, will you move on
it's getting cold
the body was deflowered
keep carrying on your soul
just the body, but it'll moulder
you're getting cold

your misery
triggers my misery
your words were too surreal
it was cruel
cause it was true
you wrecked me
a spoonful of carbon monoxide
to my coffee
unopened cans of private life
may come in handy
in times of need
let's cry
let's look away
there's no matching tutorial for empathy
let's smile
let's sigh
like we don't care
I’m fine
you seem okay
let's not talk about the future
it just ruins the day
let's lie
let's paint
pylon weather
I see you sitting in the garden
driven far into the ground
I see the illusion of your life
nice work my friend
one day I'll stay in bed for good
the dirt will pile up next to you
you'll have to do your tax return
will you fight for me
will you wash for me
will you cut my hair
or you just lay next to me
if I stopped fighting
would you start
or you're just all the same
all the same
If I don’t get up in the morning
would you call the ambulance
and know what to say

Therapy

I wrote a few notes today, after a breakdown
I think I'm missing the trip
but I don't feel bad, I don't feel sad
so hey, you
don't keep looking back
once you turn your head, the light goes out
stay with me
emotions are banging the rib cage
don't float away
I'm frightened so I give them names
silly names, scary names
don't judge me, don't grab me
just have me then let me go
words crawled off the paper
I let them in, and let them out
if they smile, I smile back
but there is one who is trouble, it says:
this is not what you expected
but I'm fine, but I'm fine
I will manage, I will manage

Freak Of Fancy

this is the world we live in
I'm wearing my monochrome glasses
I see you in black and white
we aim for different assets
you like to decorate your room
I like to decorate myself
I wouldn't buy what you're wearing
I wouldn't listen to your music
the world keeps changing
maybe I should too
but I am just this juvenile person
feeling everything running past me
everyone growing on me
sometimes I need people like you
to show me who I am
and sometimes I have to be with my own kind
to feel alive
but in the end it's only me on my own
cause everybody bites and everybody hurts
and my capacity is one pain at a time

We Like To Suffer
04:18
|

don’t follow me here
this town won’t make you happier
you’ll carry the same sadness
you’ll create the same situations
I can’t save you from yourself
no one really can
you have to close your eyes
and turn back
it’s my life, not yours
I don’t belong with you
what makes you think
that I feel more content
this is not your way
this is not your joy
this is not your pain
you have to close your eyes
and step back
we can change countries
but it won’t make things better
as it won’t make us better
we can change cultures
or state of conscience
we will suffer
‘cause we like to suffer
sometimes I walk that dimension
of unspoken dreams and subconscious fear
of time
that keeps me in bed for days
you have to close your eyes
to escape the glance of boredom
it eats up all your ambitions

walking down the street babe
when the sun is shining on both sides
you know you cannot win
there's no shade, just hot light
this is how we go
no matter what we do
we fly against the wind
we're falling, we're falling
down down down
there's nothing to cover my face
to cover my eyes
from the flatness of the day
I could be your hero
but it's hard
if you don't care
I wanna be wordy
I wanna be clear
I wanna be lyrical
‘cause I hate, I just hate, I just hate
I'm broken to the bone
we're boiling in the room
you can't get off the thought, no
that you have to do it over and over
‘cause morning wakes you up
it's ripping us apart
it murders all the songs
in my head, in your head
we're falling, we're falling
down down down

Minor Panics

here I am in our room alone
i wanted to try
to be on my own
and now I'm terrified
silence kills me slowly
on a sleepless night
shadows are stirring
your pillow got cold
your towel got dry
your voice washes out
my eyes are losing hold
of your sight
losing hold of you
I'm more frightened of your death than my own
that you will leave me in this crowded world alone
big words for a small mouth, I know
this cross is unreturnable
I fed my ravens but
they were not hungry
like pearls to the swine
I threw grains to the concrete
grains of my grinded casual sorrow
it hasn't been a day
yet this uncertainness
takes all my thoughts away
I just want to make sure
that things are okay
that you are okay
I'm more frightened of your death than my own
that you will leave me in this crowded world alone
big words for a small mouth, I know
this cross is unreturnable
like drops of mercury
running around

Lower The Shutters

I follow impressions
depression on the move
now I'm using your face
to speak my anger
to speak my truth
I weave a pretty garment
from the words you wasted
my belief materialised
now you're chopping it to pieces
lower the shutters
let's lower the shutters
that creaking sound
I leave you out
lower the shutters
let's lower the shutters
it's awfully slow
you are barely visible
your hashtags irritate me
not to mention your voice
when you speak about success
I withdraw, I have no choice
I'm dissectioning the past
and measuring your teaching
this is my way of letting go
you're not worth listening to

it's nice to have u around
come on in
make yourself comfortable
would u like a drink or two?
tell me your fantasies
what do you expect me to do
it's nice to have you around
lay down
try to relax
I'm gonna cut the air off from your face
don't you worry
I'm taking good care of you
breath in
breath out

Orgasm

delusional
that's what we are
craving to leech
craving the peak
but never
climb it together
I overtake you
and you overtake me
out of touch
angels are crying
when you pull the trigger
one finger in the hole
that dirty digger
one hand on my neck
we're in heaven
never be forgotten
never be forgiven
humans are trying
to be the only one
in your bed, in your head, in your chair
feast on your despair
no god ever promised
that you'll find a meaning
that you won't be forgotten
you won't be forgiven
devotional ritual
receiving the host
down on your knees
I watch you
but I can't watch me
I'm a child in disguise
grinding my teeth

Comfort Zone

buried under phrases
hiding behind pictures
come out come out
craving for attention
frightened by affection
come out come out
wherever You are
your life your life
compressed into minutes
when you are
you are not on your phone
faces all around
real faces all around
it's nice to be out sometimes
on your own
leaving the gear behind, so liberating
the smell of the air, intoxicating
leaving the gear behind, so liberating
to be nobody, alleviating
get back get back
under cover
it's not safe now out there in the world
let's make darkness
let's revise
let's pretend
let's draw the curtains
this isn't our face
this isn't our life
we are relevant
we are elemental
do you still remember who we were before?
we were irrelevant
we were not essential
at all
the core is just the same

lamb of God
you who take away the sins of the world
you left your flock
your sheep are roaming far away
the prophet is standing in the silence
smiling
waiting on the other side
saviours are crying
say a brief goodbye
this ship has been put to sea
come what may
brightness or dark
hold my hand
let’s repeat that death is not the end
the truth waves a hand
bequieting, with soothing grace
the lambs are waiting
the lambs are waiting
oh poor pariah
the peaceful wind of fall
speaks so softly, whispering
soon my child, soon
oh poor pariah
the peaceful wind of fall
is bringing something new
soon my child, soon
