I get drunk and spew out a bunch of nonsense.

sweeping shades of grey
I wish to escape the maker of this day
I wish to escape from ever present corpuscles
Escape these sweeping shades of grey
It was only november
When my heart brought up these tears
To dry out and fly
Up out and into
Become part of the sky
It was just too soon for November
And so the quiet left me with miserable sobs
And so the wind brought down more of those who had not yet learnt to fly
And in such a way my eyes would still see you
If you didn’t go and die
I wish to escape from ever present corpuscles
Escape these sweeping shades of grey
It was only november
When my heart brought up these tears
To dry out and fly
Up out and into
Become part of the sky
It was just too soon for November
And so the quiet left me with miserable sobs
And so the wind brought down more of those who had not yet learnt to fly
And in such a way my eyes would still see you
If you didn’t go and die

Today
If I were to die today
If these innards would just rip
Tear me open
Organs slipping from my grip
What would I say?
Falling to the floor
Towards the never more
Would I recount my love for you
In phrases or in verse
Or would I merely froth
Gurgle burbles of blood
Slip into the universe
If these innards would just rip
Tear me open
Organs slipping from my grip
What would I say?
Falling to the floor
Towards the never more
Would I recount my love for you
In phrases or in verse
Or would I merely froth
Gurgle burbles of blood
Slip into the universe

Rompery
Why is it that I must sit here
Listening to their belittling shit
They assume that I’m in on it
In on their fucking plans
These three blind mice
Amoral seducers
Rutting in a shallow pit
Its here among them
That I’ve decided
I am made of better things
That I am more
And though
Conceited as it may be
I find that in my pompous revery
I am free
Listening to their belittling shit
They assume that I’m in on it
In on their fucking plans
These three blind mice
Amoral seducers
Rutting in a shallow pit
Its here among them
That I’ve decided
I am made of better things
That I am more
And though
Conceited as it may be
I find that in my pompous revery
I am free

Sweet sweater of tears
This swimmer of dreams
Sweet sweater of tears
You’ve worked out and knitted through
My strange little anxieties and fears
And im yours
Oh shallow end
And
Ever lengthy retire
I’m so tired of
Balding through
Though
Malevolent malnourishment
And ever habitual punishment
Has always been
A miring
Acrid glue
I bow
And I folly as if
I follow deep fried wire
And I follow as a knave
Lead to these depressed willows
These sad sinkers of the deep
Drifting down...

Islandisation
If i thought that you could help me
by now
id have asked for it
and id have told you everything
but
It would have to be for something just a little more
than this self satisfied fardel
something more
than a sense of my own sufferings importance
and id have to think
for more than a minute
that it wouldnt just make you worry
and that we could really be together in this
even when i wish to be alone
and you
you
you have had my heart forever
if i had thought that we could really help each other
youd be...

Minding
My soundness has been dripping away
Staining my cloths with thick globs
I only notice the next day
Though
I had thought that that was all a dream.
Perception is drowned in a haze
Of innumerable disguise
Am I certifiably crazy
Or just a little insane
Whenever I ask god
I receive the same old lies
I might as well kick back
Laugh at the jokes
Told by cloudless purple skies
Staining my cloths with thick globs
I only notice the next day
Though
I had thought that that was all a dream.
Perception is drowned in a haze
Of innumerable disguise
Am I certifiably crazy
Or just a little insane
Whenever I ask god
I receive the same old lies
I might as well kick back
Laugh at the jokes
Told by cloudless purple skies

The Deep
The shores of my mind do not reach the deep
Where so much blue is held encapsulated
Where end cease to begin
Where I’d run wild and free
In this deep I would swell and choose everything
Where there are no walls
I would choose them
For this misery is a part of me
And I
Apart of thee
Where so much blue is held encapsulated
Where end cease to begin
Where I’d run wild and free
In this deep I would swell and choose everything
Where there are no walls
I would choose them
For this misery is a part of me
And I
Apart of thee

Steely opportune
Steely opportune
A tune with which
To blow my brains out
As paint amongst the persuasion
And pensive glow of the moon
It’s strange that I’d be so scared of you
As steel as I have become
And I ponder
Wandering through ebbing gloom
With this cannery of torturous devise
Enwrapping
Trapping
My balloon
A tune with which
To blow my brains out
As paint amongst the persuasion
And pensive glow of the moon
It’s strange that I’d be so scared of you
As steel as I have become
And I ponder
Wandering through ebbing gloom
With this cannery of torturous devise
Enwrapping
Trapping

The gentle confides
As I cast and sunder
The boundaries of my wonder
A strange and subtle smile is seen
Quietly pausing throughout these moments
Occupied and amused with silly thoughts and games
This piece of peace echo’s through
Dispersing
Slurring now
Its almost gone
I continue to wonder where it’s going to
Maybe I shall just delve into this drink
I seem to have nothing to lose
Another disappointment
Lost and trapped
Amongst the gentle confides
Of the tasty escapist booze
The boundaries of my wonder
A strange and subtle smile is seen
Quietly pausing throughout these moments
Occupied and amused with silly thoughts and games
This piece of peace echo’s through
Dispersing
Slurring now
Its almost gone
I continue to wonder where it’s going to
Maybe I shall just delve into this drink
I seem to have nothing to lose
Another disappointment
Lost and trapped
Amongst the gentle confides
Of the tasty escapist booze

Tilted
He always did have trouble with his words around her
Fondling them all too carefully
They’d suffocate coming off of his tongue
Ready to run himself down at a moments notice
She always used to make him tremble
He'd open that present again and again
A thousand times over in his head
He never cared for the wrapper really
It’s not exactly holding it all together
The drugs were either the disease or the cure
It’s hard to tell with this sort of memory.
Waking from the same dream
In the bottom of an empty well
He would whisper to himself...
Fondling them all too carefully
They’d suffocate coming off of his tongue
Ready to run himself down at a moments notice
She always used to make him tremble
He'd open that present again and again
A thousand times over in his head
He never cared for the wrapper really
It’s not exactly holding it all together
The drugs were either the disease or the cure
It’s hard to tell with this sort of memory.
Waking from the same dream
In the bottom of an empty well
He would whisper to himself...

Growing Forgetful
Where are you going my little friend?
Have you got somewhere to be?
Stumbling ever more idly around
Before you find yourself
Below a tree
But really
Where are you going my little friend?
Is it some place you know?
Maybe
Someday
Ill find you there
With more stumbling to go.
Have you got somewhere to be?
Stumbling ever more idly around
Before you find yourself
Below a tree
But really
Where are you going my little friend?

Maybe

Endlessly in fear
In fear
We drink endlessly
We drink
Endlessly in fear
Shrivelled up
Just another ball out of sight
Who was it again who said life was fair?
And who said love was fair?
Dancing around chairs
In innocent romance
Oh how far we fell
When we started seeing pictures instead of people
And how far we’ve got to fall
Not the end though
Just
More of a withdrawal.
We drink endlessly
We drink
Endlessly in fear
Shrivelled up
Just another ball out of sight
Who was it again who said life was fair?
And who said love was fair?
Dancing around chairs
In innocent romance
Oh how far we fell
When we started seeing pictures instead of people
And how far we’ve got to fall
Not the end though
Just
More of a withdrawal.
