Strange Affections
04:33

|
This blitzkrieg lasted for 46 days
And by the time it happened:
Generational darkness
Descends the earth
A gestational seed
That never really grows
Loving you
Is such a strange affection
I saw you peeping
Behind the wall
That separates
Sound from vision
It was only a glimpse
Floating in space
Cause loving you
Is such a strange collide

Aye Acetes

Out of the
Into the
White screen
Lingering on eyes My eyes
The curtains rise!
Must be more careful
Behold behind
Could be anything
The ropes the drawstrings
Cue the applause
Out of the into the
Out of the into the
The road stretches on!
ohs and ahs
The more I look straight
the less I can make:
A burnt white rectangle The clock spins black!
I tried to lift a crystal ball very murky 'crystal ball
Aye, I Acetes
The rope pulls tighter and tighter!
In the woods something cracks
against the laughter amongst the audience
Burnt into my eyes
The whitest screen
Burnt into my eyes
The tangled drawstrings
Burnt into my eyes
The audience obscene

Cold Fruit

Suck
cold fruit
From a stream
In a room
Overnight
Spending time
In a cold
Winter's night
We broke a bowl
of ice
and marbles
were spilled
on the floor.
Who's gonna hide
The shame that
we don’t.
A day like this
the sun rose
and burned the earth
This is a war!
A war to end all war.
Zenchina!
I didn't see you
Hiding there
Although I’ve noticed
Something has changed
I thrill you!
And all the mirrors that you serve
Its time for us
To part
A day like this
Echoed a hiss
And crushed the earth
This is a war!
A war to end all war.

Custom
02:10
|

We maintain a critical distance
from the sad spaniel gentlemen
in cravats
on the plaid duvet
at the Custom Hotel,
Los Angeles.
We are so over it.
We fly
from terminal
to terminal
almost endlessly.
We are almost
money.
We can wait
at high speed.

Untitled (Track 6)

Eating her lipstick
she couldn't have it with her
What she ever thought about it:
a routine of heavy-slapstick.
In light
concrete washes it’s feet
and everyone I know
is covered in plastic
In cold sparkling water
all muscles extend
and novelties are nothing but
a means to an end

Equinox
05:18
|
|||
|
The first time it kicked in
I didn't see it coming
Tangled through the dark
through a distant drumming
I got such a fright
when I saw the twin
hiding in the night
underneath the skin
The birds are invading
through the branches of the trees
While these inner machinations
got us fooled again
Love roots through
the fresh soil
We met twice as strangers
you knew that wasn't good
Passing through the walls
of dusty memory halls
Standing like a mountain
pointed to the sun
Shift inside like diamonds
even though it's yolk

Stakes Are High
03:35
|
|||
|
Seize the coming days
as the world keeps spinning
Feel the trembling earth
underneath your feet.
I know Its been so long.
But what could go wrong?
This time
The stakes
are high

What you lack
A real sense of sense
What you lack
An ending
What you lack
A careful I
What you lack
A denuding
What you lack
Exactly what I lack
Is exactly where I'm at
What you lack
A surreal twist
What you lack
Ripped red pants
What you lack
Your own flourish
What you lack
Screaming on the street
What you lack
Exactly what I lack
Is exactly where I'm at
What you lack
Able to scream on the street
What you lack
A careful ear or two
What you lack
Screaming outside yourself
What you lack
Screaming outside
Tie the rope
Tie it right
And eat it
What you lack
Is three and two and
What you lack
Is the perfect word
What you lack
Is the magic word and
What you lack
Shit under your
What you lack
Exactly what I lack
Is exactly where I'm at
