Bleeding for Meaning

Who is your god, covered in snot. Fuck you on a cross, and leave you a burning thought. Watch him walk away, heels: burning skin today. Bless your hands of wealth. Scab covered self. Heal the wretched artist. Pry open his fist. Savior shame of eve. Burn them dry leaves. Crawling up the tree his arms will hold me. Chop me down, religion frowns, I'll chew the thorn and bite the crown. The bird will bite the back, your heads in a covered sack.
Burn me. Fuck me. Curse me. Leave me.
With every pill we down the truth comes spewing out. Megaphone a voice to the ears of my choice. We can all be martyrs! I swear to you I'll make it so. I'll be your river running through the crowd of dirt. Drying up my shivers, a needle has been blessed for birth.
I can't say much for the scraps you left us. Burnt up lovers made a spot for foreign bows. Was he worth it? Was he worth it? Your his closet, sins bloom like ripe red bonnet. My ears stay open for tracks of your marking. I can't speak, I'll lose the plot but take hold of the credits when he shows the ending. I know who made this. I know who made this. Creation is circumstance.
I know who made this.
I know who made me..
I will be your god. Knees painted in my dirt. Get up on your filthy feet and make me your shameless eve.
Ruby red..

Remember the feeling of the new bright. reaching for healing through sober eyes, like a cello backed by a chorus of knives. Carve the straight into your side; bleed / transport through my eyes. Earn the door opened and trite through gaining medals of stretching blithe. I don't deserve a fraction of life.
I once loved through the ocean floor; Anchor through my throat keeping me sore. Cosmonaut bloating in to feel her breath. God does not want these lungs.
Here we stand, two statues of swaying kids. Press me forth to your fault so I can crack ribs and loosen these bolts.
Keep me upwind so I can feel it leave. Keep me from me, so I can leave her be.

This is our home now, lay us in the back seat. Preach for the wrong words, praying for leave (x2)
Taking the stomach to higher planes, and letting the skin breath out your name. You've brought me around here, followed your hope for miles, found you've burned down our home.
Guarding my ribs with the hands you'd protect, but nothing is sacred. No scripture, no text. These hands they would hold you so close to my chest, but now you've watched my life backwards and over the ledge.
Following your heels, closer to your home. Black out the walls, paint the unknown. Pills couldn't save you, neither could I. "I loved you more..."
Then I let that thought die.
But now I've found lamps in the wake of your waves. Now I know better than I let myself believe.
Now the sun has found his only moon together they sway back and forth forces waves to bloom. Maybe when the rope is tight around my neck, as the light fades out I'll find no grace in death. I have felt her lifting up my head

All I want is to kill. Now their frames are lush all to be filled. Better none by my side than by my side all that kills me. Looking back my lungs were fresh; my body: pink.
Cut through flesh and bind all their skin. I am beyond full. Expedite my symptoms to form a new set of masks. They're lining up the fence, they're to catch my exhibit. A room full of peers but no pressure to relate.
I'm masking all the tape to hold these guts in place. Burn through the witch and let her float through her skin. Present a brighter light for her to fit in. THESE HARRIDANS THEY KNOW NOTHING.
bless me through the winter and feed me through my storm. I need help.
The moon remembers the tide as she pulls him closer. The sun is still jealous. "Please remember me" screams the beat of the crashing waves. The sun can't sleep a wink, throat sore from plying. "I am wide awake to the beat of their love" hearts pacing for one another. The sun has no option but to set himself. "I am wide awake to the beat of love"

Watch Us Spin
04:09

We watched as the night grew long, saw brief light coming from the earth as the cracks grew. We felt sick, but contained it. floating heads say "watch us spin, boy" ribs felt close and I smelled the bone. I saw skin break, so we watched it burn.
Coming out from the womb, I feel fresh and I feel new. Cut the gauze and give me a mirror. teeth shine of gold, eyes of copper.
Sliding my fingers through the cracks of the gutter, give me some time to let the dirt sink in. Fading in the holes, new brushes for feathers. Tasting new gravel, I've never felt better
Taking my eyes through a tour of the dirt and grime. Make me responsible
for the lines that I have told
Making it better
Making it better
Falling faster
Falling faster
Twisting out the metal from the backs of my eyelids. Forgot how you left us, torn up and waiting for regret. This is the slow song where you'd be dancing if you hadn't lost sight of the exit
Never (better)X4

Lead me into the nights unholy dress. Unless you have a better plan to clean up this mess. I will not be this burning pier, I want to bathe in frozen water stuck forever diving in thoughts.
Never have I had a meaningless night, I've written it down and no one pays mind. Burning all the lovers in sight, no one has any idea of how the night grows, yet they all understand how long the days could tend to be. Let it unfold you and wear you as a mask. Speak for the moon and cover her past. She'll sing a song for you, it goes
"cut your finger tips off you won't play. Cut your finger tips off you won't play, love.
My ink runs through this violin.
Feeding every note, understand
I have grown through this instrument, breeding children of song with content. Making lovers fall in love with me. Singing lovely means they'll never leave. I've seen these notes slip into their ears and dance inside their dreams every night."
Make it pleasant: the falling of the sand. Scatter cells all over the bathroom floor. What a surprise, the strings have snapped. What tunes will you string out for them? Will they love you or should they forget?
Do they understand where the night went?
Do they know the life of the times spent?
Can't you grasp the answers for this?
Should I speak so loud that you hear this?

Guilty Bystander

Don't let Saturn get near me tonight, I don't need his teeth sliding down my sides. Glossy stained bite and yellow teeth to feast on every single path I choose to bare my feet.
Waning soul: out of luck. Naked truth is hard to hold, could you be so hard on yourself? You've never etched a bone for your debts. If you did I.. I missed it. I've never seen you so god damn filthy. I lost step, dirty floor. I fell back through the door
What makes you so scared of this? Is it his snarling darling, I apologize for every ounce of his weighted ignorance stumbling back through this door. Stumbling back through this door. Stumbling back through this...
Let me open up, peel back my ribs. Find every letter I sent to you. Spit in my eyes leave me for the blind.
Here we go again making rhythm with false beats, I've never felt a heart lead so wrong into the arms of the guilty bystander
You know what? A man fell from here. He had all the love, he (only) held it wrong. You know what? A man fell from here. He had all the love, he (only) held it wrong.
He had all her love. He (only) held her wrong. He had all her love. He (only) held her wrong.

The Big Catch
03:45

I have caught the biggest catch of my time, indeed I found the brightest of the mines. We started with a plot to let the rest catch up. They've been eating with their backs warm and drinking from my cup.
Let their blood run from my cup
Let their blood run from my
I will not let them aim my whole life without this gain. They must learn to dry their feet wipe off their shoulders to fog up their seats.
Blasphemous demandé clouding their sights, screaming through their lives while burdens choose flight. Watch me spin under tales woven. Watch me spin, dance to rewiring.
I hear the waves crash, I'm wide awake to their beat. I see every note fall from the sky, a beautiful blue to match this hue of song I seem to spill from out of this stem. Know I'll never watch, I won't bother or fright.
They can go about their business, conducted in the limelight. They know I need their wits to barter in the mist of unharmed repine. The loss feels up my spine. Drink it all to take me home. (x2)
I have found a new home, for the ones who can't find their own. They see flashes outside they're...
Taking our love back home
Taking our love back home
Ribs still hurt it's all I know
Ribs still hurt it's all I know

And she prays on her knees as the claws pierce the bread. The dead have clipped off the excess skin and float through the stars. Trails of fleets brace your heels as you march with both of your crooked hands. Your head is in the ground, now you'll sprout.
Hide me beneath your lungs and breathe me in. Place me between your eyes and cry me out. Force me into the stars and let me fall. Bury me, I'll transpose.
I am scared to go home due to the man of leaves tracing towards me. I am scared to leave home.
I am losing faith with the way my blood runs.
Can't you see him? Can't you feel him? Can't you hear him? Can't you help him?
Help this devil. He's all alone.
I can see my wrist climb towards my eyes. I've seen it once, I've seen it twice, please just shake me off. I feel the pressure building to collapse. I don't know when, but the air will burn all at once. I hear all the things you've tried to scream at me, but I was much too awake.
I can hear him grasping at my spine, he's whispering. I am losing faith with the my blood runs.

Take me into the loving arms of the deep well where it ain't all that bright. Found a peace, none of disease, in pressing her gracious lips. No relieving of this mess I seem to be.
I see people in the trees, human forms guiding me. brief red draw, a swift curtain drop. They're pulling me forth from the tops.
(2 measures of 6) Room after room, it never ends. I'm seeing three, I can't relate. (Fill) (2 measures of 6) They are not the same as me a distance in shape.
Take me, Laura. Show me, David. The owl is in the lounge, the giant on the ground. Pressing a lover to show the others dead. furthering the gap between my toes to my head.
This end is the end, a beauty left in.
The insides turn out to make his amends. Old man, turn down, leave me around the beautiful blue moon I felt it in this room. Beautiful blue moon I felt in this room
Taking it all out on my head
drill and drive sending chills off to bed, burn (x5) these shadows at the stakes. Make (x5) gluttonous mistakes.
Allow me to transcend the bitter half to these thoughts. Imagine a world where oceans consume all of us. Sink to the bottom find a love worth repeating. Slip into my ears, love.

I wore this burden so fast around my neck. Playing a game with hopes that I'll be in check. I've loved this cliff so high above and still fell to the ocean floor where I found love. Precipice Carolers singing to the fish.
I love the game the game is fixed we're begging all the same. See the breath the wild feast on every letter of my name. Hope is just a line we've crossed too many times. A line is just hope so we crossed our fingers tight.
Chagrin faced when poker lace goes backwards up the wall. I'll be the kicker in the metamorphic stall. Take me for granted, you have turned to granite. Eyes for wells, tried get back my coins back and so I fell.
Eyes for wells, yet I still fell, never climbing up, drinking from his cup.
I'll be the kicker in the metaphoric stall. Picking up the mess from every fist we ever shook. Bruised and torn for every wall, a color sees of lack.
God bless this wonderful home.
God bless this ugly lawn.
God bless this wretched stench
God bless this wonderful home.
God bless this horrible stye.
God bless this miserable room.
I painted a portrait of god, she looked like something I lost. Wasn't this lifeless dream, but a reflection of me.
