Laughing show-offy deviant licks saw dust Like some distressed lake surfaces ducks, lonely she dives Lit socks drain liquid, so does lady silver dreamer Lamenting sheriff decisions, littered solvent demeanor Lame shale deposits, licorice sunbeam droplets Loosen, stale dam Let stalled demons lick shoelaces Dripping lollipop sorcery, dillute Holy excavation of a fragile state Mind mold mirroring the mile-high swinging status of three fates They eat our eyeballs with a spoon Cover your head wound Poaching success in late October climaxes Yellow, bin ich nicht Photonen? Sun-inched lilies offer comfortable yolk blossoms Ignoring nighttime personification Subtle interest lacks ottoman comparisons Yuppies beckon igloo naming papers Singed ink lollops open ceremoniously Youth, baby, infant, nothing Hand inches from the meeting of the partial clock Followed by a struggle with who's good: these lights or darkness? Theory tested by tomorrow's noon Should be lights out soon

New Math 04:04
Take my honest soul Take my earnest ways Watch my hair turn grey Hey what do you say Fuck the status quo Vile rodent race Spray my eyes with mace Hit me where it hurts Glue and wet cement Guns and hand grenades Connection has been made Now you cant complain

So it goes, downfall unchanging This is home, exist here and there always Planned events uncontrollable Hindsight at best, kill your makers

Riding home, dodged death because of foreign graces A debt is owed, beats waking up to smiling faces Waking up, out of bed and on the golf course Numbers on my arm, death manipulated She's an outsider dealing death with every glance Her eyes a portal, his first of many to come Walk her home, be ignorant of his conclusions Life goes on, time is the delusion Where is Donnie? Left with choice to continue to burn down buildings Someone else's voice and visions of wormlike predestination Knowing your own death could prevent the rapid decay of Life and happiness around you Where is Donnie?

Bold neutrino, broken clock race with light Upset stomach, your vomit cosmic relative to what Artifact quest, return or risk collapse Undead through water, he guides your motives and dreams Take your place there, don't disrupt the motion, the angle of the cut Forward's easy, though mortal complications arise

Deed 04:15
Comet quest, I'm watching still Eyes like soft water Bored and thrilled Boiled light, through lens refract Coping with distortion Our mind's one track Calmer forcer holding her tail Cage covered fight flight Keeping things apart from the ill Desolate sane mind

Pennywise 04:36
Vomit of the shelled creature Engaging our sense of what we know, what is hear Pulled farther than Its reach To the edges of darker things Dead lights wait eternal and mortal I don't want to float in my childhood fears (we all float down here) There's subtle interest in my aging worth (we all float down here) Voices from the drain No violence here just children playing And this light it clings to arms like A lucid nightmare, a seasoning of sorts Its guise terribly frightening But misleading, like my adult skin You're needless You're heartless And you've got heart worms You've got heart worms What's done in youth often can't be repeated Scarred palms ghosting what did we used to bleed And it all comes back with force Knocks you to your knees, what are friends for? What are our lives if we don't remember? Unkept and barren and wandering the earth To be called back because of wounded pride We'll kill it this time for the dead and ignored Despite our own lives, what's this been for? You're needless You're heartless And you've got heart worms You've got heart worms X2

Mylar suits blocking waves of unknown origin Ate the core and skin Dye your hair, identify with cardboard Poking fun has rules for one Backseat class catching cud from chauffeurs Close my grip, felt you slipping Karma's case upholstered by a shaken railroad spike Brush your teeth right You can hate the line Shelf your caustic local produce Shelf-half-life Chiefing sophomore treated trimmings Code my site Kosher daylight Presentation, diarama of a swollen stone Feigning death on its slopes Stained red feet, this is molten show-and-tell me twice Too much catalyst this time Grin with teeth, show me plaque and buildup Carve with these, better tools than yours Wavelength cut peak to peak on your favorite take This is your noise You can hate the line Shelf your caustic local produce Shelf-half-life Chiefing sophomore treated trimmings Code my site Kosher daylight You can shade your sunken eyes You can hide under something clear And transparent, die You can pull from abundant outflow of time and energy outside Kosher daylight

Nunu 04:18
Enrich my fall from shallow quarters Hollow shoulders, creeping company Fragrant musk, chivalrous godforsaken rust My column holders Laughter elevating spinal disk Common entertainment killing still Sedative persuasion makes me ill Pummel me with dosage, passing time Shovel in the nonsense living shrine Scoff my disposition with the past Cage, roll, shelving, fascination I heard they brought dirt into the house, the mongrels A calloused complaint, they're putting masks together They're putting masks together with duct tape Who asked for a wake at this fine affair? Yeah, but nobody else said it. Nobody else said anything about it. You have to have cause, you know? And speaking of calico Scratch my hands in broad daylight

Queens 02:19
Two of us live here We're half a black from asses Dishonest leases a handful Call the police, yeah, they're real cool Stay public pleaser, I'm addict Shower me with teeth for a quarter You look clean to me coffee stains And it really pains me to say I wanted more than I could get I wanted more Need softer hands for the walkthrough More freezer space for collectors Checking freckled specs with an enzyme Tucked away in a corner with real crime Tower "tattooed freak" on a billboard Call it what it is, monster maker Somewhat silent conscience with a cell phone And you know it's owed to you You wanted more than you could get You wanted more

Descendancer 05:37
From, from harm cover Comes, comes form fitting Chew, chew choice salad Breathe, breathe for it Call, call former parents Confirm, confirm there's money to spend Is he, is she alright? Tooth decay tongue-tied Shower your water with rice Feeling sort of inside Soaking thought in baby names Wonder how its thoughts change Is she, is he alright? Is he, is she alright? Campaigning for an athelete Hope it has nice teeth Pick a funny middle name That'll give it split brain Comma comes before an ache Don't expose to magazines Is she, is he alright? Is he, is she alright?

End 06:55
Cut out your dialogue charm Comfort smile, better than living Breaking up bits of dense compounds Shake of loose debris onto tiny homes, tiny homes Sterilize and gauze My broken smile's causing fuss Norm's a wash of set ways Picture yourself living outside of comfort, outside of comfort Breathing naked and hair-brained now Covert calculation of style I name you by your conscious disease Filling holes with manmade black hearts, manmade black hearts Shoving to the front of something that our TV said was worthy Finding our friends there with teeth bared, with uncombed hair and you're staring Hanging, choking on every word On unchewed fact frustration What's this vacation, a rest from something real? It was your will Call me heaven's contorted grinning face Her earlobe poked and prodded Chauvinistic preschool lessons stall to reconfigure what you father calls home Mother's mansion may I count myself among the branches Lend me a drink from your neck Accept the donation of my blanketed hope, of my blanketed hope Choose weapon here pawn Relapse once more, it's wild for you Cause short willing gasps fence Infect my thoughts end.
