Cranium
04:50
|
|||
|
I don't want to be addicted to the noise
But when it goes away I want to die
Empty out my cranium
And eat some cereal
Cut my sweet angelic face into a pie
Are you hungry?
You look nervous
Are you hungry?
You look nervous
I don't want to be some chalk upon your board
I'm giving myself goosebumps on my body
Just thinking about it
Do you want to take some time to celebrate your mind?
I want to buy your brain a cake
And frost it with the come of angels
Are you hungry?
You look nervous
Are you hungry?
You look nervous
I don't want to be like all those other boys
Who tell you that they get you
But we both know that they do not get you
I want to french braid your hair
With honey on my hands
I want to pluck your eyebrows for you
With my grandma's antique tweezers
Does it hurt you?
Do you like it?
Does it hurt you?
Do you like it?
Are you hungry?

Once More For The Ocean
03:37
|

I sat in front of the ocean
I was looking for you
The sky is collapsing
All I see is blue
I've forgotten the question
The matter is slack
It has no direction
All I see is black
Everybody says
That they want some
I am getting sick
Of people talking so much
Hold me underwater
Not afraid of drowning
The light is everywhere
And I'm staring at the sun
Tripping into the void
I don't mind it down here
Nothing left to avoid
Everybody says
That they want some
I am getting sick
Of people talking so much
Hold me underwater
Not afraid of drowning
The light is everywhere
I'm reversing the potion
The next curse is on you
Consuming the castle
It ain't nothing new
I'm erasing the goblins
The matter is slack
The trolls are all trobblin'
All I see is black
Everybody says
That they got some
I am getting sick
Of people talking so much
Hold me underwater
Not afraid of drowning
The light is everywhere
And I'm staring at the sun
Tripping into the void
I don't mind it down here
Nothing left to avoid
Everybody says
That they want some
I am getting sick
Of people talking so much
Hold me underwater
Not afraid of drowning
The light is everywhere

I won't ask you again
If you give it to me
And I won't say it again
If you get it the first time
I tried to be a good boy
But I'm feeling bad
Yeah I'm feeling bad
No one left to annoy
It's making me mad
Think I'll cause a scene
And shout it
Can't turn it around
Turn it around
Turn it around
I tried to play it cool
But I'm coming in hot
Yeah I'm coming in hot
Used to think that I rule
Now I've giving it thought
I'm giving some thought to it now
Can't turn it around
Turn it around
Turn it around
I won't ask you again
If you give it to me
And I won't say it again
If you get it the first time

The Next Curse
04:01
|
|||
|
Earth's gonna set on fire
But still I wait
Rabid with desire
But still I wait
Flames gonna kiss my back
I hope I can run faster than that
Earth's gonna set on fire
But still I wait
Who's gonna swallow the blaze
After the flood
Stuck inside the maze
The moss and mud
Drowning with the plants
I hope I can swim faster than that
Earth's gonna set on fire
But still I wait
Yesterday when I woke up the sky was the strangest color. At first I couldn’t figure out if I was asleep or
awake. The time of day was indecipherable and suddenly I became acutely aware of my size. I went outside to
see if I could find a sun or a moon, but all I could pay attention to was a feeling— both exciting and
frightening— that something was about to crack open the muted orange mess above, to save and destroy us
one at a time and all at once...but still I wait.

Strange Astrology
04:01
|
|||
|
I like them spooky
And you're just my style
Said the Leo to the Taurus
And if you'd like to stay
With me awhile
I'll cover us with forest
We can stroll across a magic land
It's green and it is glowing
Lay our bodies in the moss and sand
We know and we are knowing
And I don't mind
Our strange astrology
I hope we find
You bring the best out in me
Let's keep it lazy
In the living room
If you believe in miracles
So would I
But as a Libra moon
I keep it so satirical
I like those flowers
And I like that vase
The way that you combine them
Your sense of color
Comes from outer space
We never could align them
But I don't mind
Our strange astrology
I hope we find
You bring the best out in me
Michael Jackson never spoke to me
Said the Taurus to the Leo
All his hits are in a major key
And my rising sign is scorpio
But I don't mind
Our strange astrology
I hope we find
The sun and the stars and the sea

Waiting
03:09
|

I got loud
Flipped my lid
I always do
I'm not proud
Sucks the patience out of you
I'm inspired
I can't sleep
But I'm so tired
Turn me around
Levitate me
Let me out
I've been waiting for so long
Set me free
I've been waiting passively
I’m not scared
I’ve never been so prepared
Twist and shout
I’ll wring out all of those toxins
Fuck the crowd
Eat their pain
Get on my cloud
Stay this way
We will come back down someday
Cut my hair
Left the pieces everywhere
Birds will care
And I can hear their call
I can hear their call
And it goes...

King Arthur's Seat
04:38

It's funny how time is never enough
But my only crime
Was pretending I'm tough
I always wanted to be something
Maybe I missed the mark
Maybe I should have stayed at home
Singing broadway in the dark
I used to feel fine
Living in this shell
But it's breaking down
And I'm not feeling so well
I would go to the roller rink
But I'm not into crowds
I'm constantly on the brink
Am I thinking too loud?
Come and get me
I'm feeling lonely too
Come and take me
I'm coming with you
It’s funny how time
Is hands on a clock
We will them to turn
We beg them to stop
I always wanted to free something
But my mouth’s rusted shut
I always wanted to bleed something
But my blood turned to dust
Come and get me
I'm feeling lonely too
Go on and and take me
I'm coming with you
It’s funny how time
Is standing so still
I pray to divine
To do as she will
I always wanted to see something
But I thrive in the dark
Will I step out into the sun?
Or will I fall apart?
Come and get me
I'm feeling lonely too
Go on and and take me
I'm going with you
I’m feeling lonely too

A Giant Swallow
04:29
|
|||
|
In love with the water
In lust with the open sky
I swallowed the mirror
Reflect as the days flow by
I circle the moment
I watch myself fail to fly
I'm stuck in the honey
I'm stuck on the reasons why
It breaks like a thunder
It sinks like a crystal ball
I can't feel my fingers
I can't feel myself at all
Fight fire with fire
I'm swimming in turpentines
We're all full of toxins
No one ever seems to mind
This dance is so crazy
I can't seem to catch this grind
There I go again judging
What I can't seem to leave behind
Like all of these demons
They pin me against the wall
My hunger is a symptom
Wake up thirsty or not at all
The moss it is glowing
Still wet in the morning sun
Thought I saw a ladder
To climb when the day is done
Thought I saw a swallow
It swallowed the glory whole
I'm not asking for favors
I just want some dice to roll
I'll return to the ocean
Return to the womb again
Inside of the mother
Won't have any questions then
Won't have any questions then
Won’t have any questions

White Rabbits
03:33

I've been running for so long
Searching for something
I've been waiting in the dark
I've been hiding for so long
Sleeping in shadows
I've been waiting all this time
To let it out
and take it down
Tear it apart
Turn me around
I'm underneath
And up above
I am complete
I don't feel anything at all
I could swallow the whole cage
Rusting inside me
It's white rabbits everyday
I don't care about the pain
I serve it up gladly
In the end it's all the same
I'll let it out
and take it down
Tear it apart
Turn me around
I'm underneath
And up above
I am complete
And I feel everything

I could eat my motivation
Starve my ego
Grind it down
I'll get into meditation
'Cause where I'm going
I can't be found
I'm so sure
I'll be cleaner than before
I've succumbed to medication
'Cause I was tearing
Up my skin
But I don't mind
All these daydreams
I am knocking
Let me in
Let me go
I want to start the show
I could have spent my life
Locked in a room
And you could have spent your life
Locked in a room
This parallel timeline
Could be yours too
