Mouth Filled With Sand
The sound your face makes When you're eating insects Fills my mind With relief
And your feet are still inside My skull And you're wearing my brain Like a shoe
And I can't see you And I can't feel And I don't know anything At all
I'm breathing with my Mouth filled with sand
And there is still the image of your body Underneath the sea With your lungs Filled with snow
I could smell my name inside your mouth While you slept And it was All Made Up

A Bag of Broken Hands
Today I found an animal's mouth In a bag of broken hands While the house around me Burned to the ground
And you sat alone in a birdbath Wrapped In a thousand bandages That shattered into a pile of water That never made a sound
And I still believe This color on my skin Is trying to Follow me And lay eggs inside my eyes
Then you told me a story About your favorite pet And how you let him starve Starve to death
In an empty metal building somewhere Far away from here And I saw you touch yourself While telling me this
|
Seafoam Warm Piss
Is it true That your face is Underneath a piece of glass In the bottom of a toilet Somewhere
Or in my bedroom somewhere That I've never been before Or in my bedroom somewhere Warm
Somewhere I've never been before Is somewhere warm
Where my piss will float like seafoam And your mother thinks that You will live forever As long as I only drink water And never look down

This Isn't Going to Hurt I finally felt like I had found something Outside of my own mind With real lips And real eyes That spoke real words And listened to mine
And I adored you Like I adored nothing else Because you made me feel How I wanted to feel
Don't kiss me now

I Can't Breathe
I could hear myself speaking to you In the next room This voice crawled Into your face And it was begging for you to drown me
Just use anything but water...
And I'll feel like I can be Happy again
And I feel like I Can't Breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe
I could hear my throat coughing In the next room Choking On the smell of your tongue Roasting Between your teeth
This is the opposite of water
Now I feel like I Am happy again
Now I feel like I Can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe

Feeding Fingers Faceless figure feed their fingers To a man inside a wall And they laugh so loud that You cannot hear him Chew at all
And he cannot swallow their fingernails So he spits them out on the floor And I count them
Even though I can't see at all

My Home Again
There is nothing in the ceiling There is nothing in the ceiling Or in the face that waits outside
And I can't believe it I can't believe it's you again
If you smear me into your favorite pair of Underwear I'll smear you into a song about how Much I Care
Something is so far away from my home again
And I really meant it When I said that all that I Want from you are sounds Of your bones And teeth And hair And all of this Falling down the stairs
And I can't believe it I can't believe you would kill yourself And never leave this And always keep this To yourself

Manufactured Missing Children
Everyone is born inside of photo-booths here With stolen names And birthdays That make no Sense
They have to be told to Feel what they feel These manufactured missing children Are really here
And they're innocent They're innocent And not innocent at all
A yellowed man in a wheelchair Won't let me Sleep Laminated scrambled eggs Are all that we'll eat
This Is why I go Inside Myself
And I'm innocent I'm innocent And not innocent at all
There is nothing left to see here There is nothing left to see Nothing isn't ever wrong with me
|
Pesticides
I see you Then I don't see you And I know you Aren't there And if you're not happy Then why do you care
Because I love you Then I don't love you And your scars smell Like my dreams And if you're not bleeding Then why do you scream
My mind is My mind is a pesticide
And my tongue lives Under carpets And this whole house is between The things I am needing And the things that you bring
My mind is My mind is a pesticide

Where Mimes Come to Die
The taste of rain In an open wound Why should I still want your skin When mine is as soft as hers
Starving whores Breastfeeding men Swallowing their voices
This is where mimes come To say goodbye This is where mimes come To die
Facedown in the snow And broken ice I removed my mind So that I could always Always Be wrong
I'll always be wrong I'll always be alone |
Swallow Me
I watched you bleed to death Inside a cardboard box And you trickled And you fed your Life to a pond
And your blood floated to the surface In the shape of your face And I fed it every word that I have Ever had to say
If I could swim Would you swallow me

Fireflies Make Us Sick
I don't care how you got in here With this jar full of fireflies Just let me crush and smear Their glowing asses Across your mouth
And when I turn out this light I only want to see your face Coming closer To kiss me Until the smell of this Makes us sick
