the stars

it's so beautiful
it's so beautiful
the blistering rays
bleeds my eyes
bleeds my face
blends into disaster
you're so beautiful
it's catastrophe
you’re so beautiful
you don’t have to change a thing
this slinking grace
it’s only here for a while
it’s only here for now
so stretch it out
we’ll make it last to infinity
the star’s are so beautiful
i wanna give them to you
someday
someday won’t come
so they won’t be enough
i am worried that i won’t be enough

all of the people

all of the people
and all of their children
drinking my blood
and eating my body
tearing fat clumps of flesh
off of mere skin and bone
and only skin and bone
only the body of a lune
to remember me as the sun
by a statue in a shopping mall in texas
to remember me in their own blood
lives flashing in signs spelling exit
trees falling to be remembered by no one
all of the people talking to themselves
switching their feet in the cement
blocks pulled snug around their heads
all of the people
all of the people
all of the people
all of the people
ripping at their feet
cement blocks pulled snug around their legs
pulling them into the depths
wrung heavy bells around their necks
splashing into blood and spiking dreck
cement blocks pulled snug around their legs
pulling them into the depths
wrung heavy bells around their necks
splashing into blood and spiking dreck
slicing southern heads left hanging by their feet
dangling from the scoreboard and walking the beat
cement blocks pulled snug around their chests
crushing their heart or at least whatever’s left
all of the people gnash wanting something more
eating the hungry and raping the poor
all of the people gnash tear for the door
but escapism grants you no reward
all of the people
all of the people
will remember
they won’t remember
not all of the people lived
not all of the people thrived
but all of the people tried
but not all of the people survived
not all of the people lived
not all of the people thrived
but for the good of all of the people they tried
but not all of the people survived

(i feel like shit
can i uh please see you tomorrow
not to put that way but uh
life is trash this week
i don't even wanna talk about it)
it’s not much
but i guess this means happy birthday
i was just gonna leave these here
but i think i’ll stay
it’s really pretty outside
and part of me imagines you can see it
and part of me imagines you can’t
and that’s the way you like it
i catch all the worms beneath the surface
and bring you home with me until they die
and your invisible body will move through the house
picking up picture frames and throwing a blanket over me where i lay asleep on the couch
is that you over there?
in the corner cupboard
or inside my coat on the wall?
ready to put it on and walk back to your grave
stomping over flowers
for your birthday

canyon

happiness was my mask
i dipped into the canyon
looking for another
way to waste my time
a way to waste my life
come creeping over me
come creeping dead but fine
come creeping over me
(canyon)
man who kills to laugh
girl who walks alone
boy who cries at home
woman who hides her face
all of you
watch the night
a way to waste my life
comes creeping over me
death's last crying babe
ma's first flying manger
child's last beating brain
pop's first cancer'd bone
thrashing crashing drone
sad and dead alone
plastics made of throats
nightmareland is home
(canyon)
fucking stupid skies
piles of dead flies
grass hair and shit pies
it's only god by god's design
man who killed to laugh
oh girl who walked alone
ground in with the trash
rotten metal flesh and bone
all of you
don't take your eyes off the night
what a way to waste my life
it comes creeping over me
(canyon)

litterbug cruiser
black cat looking at me
doing what’s to do
whatever’s been done
walking how i walk
walking the long walk home
walking up to the door
up the stairs, down to sleep
into dreams of cherry coke
medicine floats
sunshine coats
the inner ear
the walls of somewhere near
but not here
litterbug cruiser
do it every day
throw yourself away
in that patch of grass behind the store
sometimes you have to wonder what its there for
interrupted by noise beating in
from the opposite side
of a flattened dime
in a fountain
in a mall
he must feel small
cuz it’s not 1936
and he’s not rich
he’s just smiling
at the bottom
of a fountain
in a mall

die
02:46
|

i don't wanna die in my sleep
i wanna know where and who i am
and who surrounds me
i can only hope that you are there
and i can only pray to know where to go
and that you don't go before me
i can't watch you go before me
thr-
through a broken glass in the dirt
i can see you snap and turn
you turn around to face me
we will be twisting our cold bodies down in the earth
and matching eaten hands
will meet to greet the sky
one day after you
have to watch me die
afterwards and only
don’t wanna die all scared and lonely

eternity looking down
always looking up
always looking ahead
always seeing you
always
always
always
always
always looking in the dark
always losing something new
always trading good for bad
always making do
always
always
always
what the fuck am i looking for
always
what the fuck am i looking for
always
always
always
always
always

i wanna be forgotten
05:29
|

[wind]
a lost cause
struggling through the night
waiting to be remembered
to the light
which escapes
and cradles up
into the ceiling
of the room
looking down
scanning around
and finds him dazed within
clouds of dense perfume
i wanna be forgotten
i wanna be forgotten
i wanna be forever forgotten
i wanna be
