I get drunk and spew out a bunch of nonsense.

Morose just describes
Morose just describes a moment
Which we often drift far too slowly through
Another opportunity to grow from pain
To observe delineated aboding ills
That'd slowly slow wills in their migration
Here I analyse my specters to death
And witness a constant sort of alienation
As I drip into some new sort of shape or form
Just trying not to run out of breath
Which we often drift far too slowly through
Another opportunity to grow from pain
To observe delineated aboding ills
That'd slowly slow wills in their migration
Here I analyse my specters to death
And witness a constant sort of alienation
As I drip into some new sort of shape or form
Just trying not to run out of breath

Understanding
What is with these sycophantic sluts?
I find it hard to imagine that intelligence
Would necessarily be accompanied by morals
By honour
But it seems ever so
Perhaps true understanding and empathy are intellectual exercises after all
For its not like ive been tricked
And it’s not like I can be threatened
By quaint notions of the omniscience
Fearless as I am of this oblivion just beyond me
Of this inky darkness in all directions
So it must be intellectual
It must just be another area of understanding
For as a monkey ...

Appetiser
My eyes
Are nothing
It’s only their perception that really matters
And it’s only my mind
That draws these conclusions
Choosing what to really
Detect and detest
And it’s only again that subtle psychotic reasoning
That knows the dark black spots
From vessels which long ago
Fell from the corner
Of this coherent desk
Complemented
I pretend
If only for a while
That I gain truth through my friends
But happily
They seek the sultry edges of my pain
Realising this
Or maybe
I just presume
I still...

A short life
I owe the reaper
And he owes me nothing
But strangely
He has exactly what I seek
All throughout this night
I’ve been speaking to my lost siblings
They’re either synchronised clockwork monsters
Or they’re onto something here
Should I trust them?
Monger my own fear?
How long will I have to walk?
The eight sided dice of fate
Lingering by my side
They lead me here of all places
I think ill throw them away
Let them roll just one last time
And he owes me nothing
But strangely
He has exactly what I seek
All throughout this night
I’ve been speaking to my lost siblings
They’re either synchronised clockwork monsters
Or they’re onto something here
Should I trust them?
Monger my own fear?
How long will I have to walk?
The eight sided dice of fate
Lingering by my side
They lead me here of all places
I think ill throw them away
Let them roll just one last time

And so everything repeats
Time to adorn my straight edged alter ego
restless repetition is his name
and out on this here relentless sea
there is nothing for him to drink
nowhere to run
nothing but crystal blue eternity
restless repetition is his name
and out on this here relentless sea
there is nothing for him to drink
nowhere to run

Cime lub misey
What strange meditative madness this is!
A twisted happenstance for the heavily habitual happener
Just another case of eternal late night neurosis
But what exactly am i supposed to do
When the only way out
Leads me straight back into
A twisted happenstance for the heavily habitual happener
Just another case of eternal late night neurosis
But what exactly am i supposed to do

The bitter brink
I don’t know what to do anymore
And I certainly don't know what to think
How can I really love anyone
With this hate dragging me down
And so much water running down the sink
I must surely be deluded
Flipping flippantly between such peace
And the bitter brink
I try grabbing onto safety ropes
But im simply grabbing spider webs
Finding an embrace
In hypodermic appendages
In a glassy
grated
edge
And I certainly don't know what to think
How can I really love anyone
With this hate dragging me down
And so much water running down the sink
I must surely be deluded
Flipping flippantly between such peace
And the bitter brink
I try grabbing onto safety ropes
But im simply grabbing spider webs
Finding an embrace
In hypodermic appendages
In a glassy
grated
edge

And I welcome it
I welcome death
I die a little every second
And more so every day
And I welcome it
For when you accept your death
You can see why the living play
So if you were to avoid anything
Let it not be death
For when a man upon death walks around
He spills out far more
Than just sound
I die a little every second
And more so every day
And I welcome it
For when you accept your death
You can see why the living play
So if you were to avoid anything
Let it not be death
For when a man upon death walks around
He spills out far more
Than just sound

Suppressed symposium
Suppressed symposium
Of ever suckled intimate effervescence
The inked tip toes
Dance lines around my patience
And our presence
Oh it is indeed
A muddled confrontation
That plasters upon my expression
Interrupting rapport
I’ll find some more of
These somethings
Or rathers here
Sad little particles to sort
But
Then my booze
The blooded white bleach
And bitter blades and bitter me
It would have been so misleading
If you were ever to have found me
Hanging from a tree
Of ever suckled intimate effervescence
The inked tip toes
Dance lines around my patience
And our presence
Oh it is indeed
A muddled confrontation
That plasters upon my expression
Interrupting rapport
I’ll find some more of
These somethings
Or rathers here
Sad little particles to sort
But
Then my booze
The blooded white bleach
And bitter blades and bitter me
It would have been so misleading
If you were ever to have found me
Hanging from a tree

He died without surprise
The gaps are my peace
For thoughts bring no solace now
I sit without myself
Without all those petty questions
And trivial games to play
An exit in the dancing bubbles
I drink to my escape
Those cacophonic bubbles
Those beautiful bubbles
I could stare for hours
Waste both time and space
For where am I among the empty cans
And who am I among these brothers
I find that even they have questions
Question that turn inside
I’ve found nothing to share
That same nothing to hide
So what do I say?
Do I lie?...
For thoughts bring no solace now
I sit without myself
Without all those petty questions
And trivial games to play
An exit in the dancing bubbles
I drink to my escape
Those cacophonic bubbles
Those beautiful bubbles
I could stare for hours
Waste both time and space
For where am I among the empty cans
And who am I among these brothers
I find that even they have questions
Question that turn inside
I’ve found nothing to share
That same nothing to hide
So what do I say?

Virus
Not wanting to destroy
Unwilling
It’s really just those walls
To which I bind to infest
Perpetual
On a rampage
My killing will signal my own death
But the pressure to exist
Squeezes upon us all
Forever in check
Im rising and falling
Until there’s nothing left
No life
No act of balancing at all
Unwilling
It’s really just those walls
To which I bind to infest
Perpetual
On a rampage
My killing will signal my own death
But the pressure to exist
Squeezes upon us all
Forever in check
Im rising and falling
Until there’s nothing left
No life
No act of balancing at all

like an oceans tide
Ive got inky fingers
And you blacken with the softest touch
You suffocate as I sweetly smother
Ripping in this ginger grip
Abraised by my embrace
I apologize and leave
As I slowley start to slip
Waxing and waning
Chew it all right down to the bone
Im not worth it anymore
And ive never been at home
With this mania
Besotted basements
And broken teary monologues
Just chew it down to the fucking bone
The deluded are impugned
And the punitory...
And you blacken with the softest touch
You suffocate as I sweetly smother
Ripping in this ginger grip
Abraised by my embrace
I apologize and leave
As I slowley start to slip
Waxing and waning
Chew it all right down to the bone
Im not worth it anymore
And ive never been at home
