Harsh Forever

You might think you’re blinded by pain
just because the doors shut they don’t have to stay that way
You’re not makin’ fool of yourself
You’re just sayin’ that forever is a harsh feelin’
To be called
By our portmanteau
Is to belong
To your empathos
The closer you get to anything
It gets bigger and the outside cosmos pushed away
If I took a Magnifying Glass
Shoot the sun ray super concentrated certain death
I tip your hourglass around
watch the sand slip and the castle we built fall right down
To be called
By our portmanteau
Is to belong
To your empathos

mourning stay at home
that’s the past I know
people get their sadnesses to go
Call in sick from bed
have a fit for show
they can see your every move just go
NSA
spying every day
hearing everything I say
where is the black tape?
Opaque bond
over the camera, always on
Scrolling down my neck
Vertebrae digest
They project onto plain text/cut cords
Data to a T
Filed away on me
They recommend the things that I should see
NSA
spying every day
hearing everything I say
where is the black tape?
Opaque bond
over the camera, always on

A billion cells fit in my thumb,
in seven years my body re-becomes.
A million earths fit in the sun
so I can't believe in only-ones.
A trillion times a trillion and one,
is in infinitely less than infinite and one
A million earths fit in the sun
so I can't believe in only-ones.

One Lifetime
04:07
|
|||
I want my skin to tear easy
like my granddad’s did
pulling weeds on his knees
refilling the seeds
all the birds can come and feed
solving crosswords while I eat
peacefully
each morning
take my memories,
just scraps in a book,
drown them in the
water on my brain.
Like my grandmother
waits to go home every day
wanting for her legs to take
Her home again
Keep my fingers strong
like you did for her
played the piano
ever-freely on
the day that she died
A hundred years will fly right by
Silent films and owls at night
one lifetime

Ritual of My Earth
03:54
|
|||
Creature of habit
Tatted and rabid
Patterns printed in leaflets
Briefly scattered
A notice needed
Neatly folded
Two weeks in advance of
Disrupted re-done-did
Goodbye buzz cola
Nail biting no more
Sins of another feather
Hot earth's core
Does the end have an end,
A Question posed of hell,
If my day gets done to plan
Then certainly it does
Wake up to walk in
With something in my hands
Ritual of my Earth
It’s Mother's Day again

When the time come take me
Please don't let me live forever
I don't wanna live forever
This body wasn't made
To be in the cloud
End of life don't shake me
all them Kilobytes don't make me
Zipped up gigabytes can’t fake me
Don't upload my consciousness
Into the cloud
Burn me into the ground
Turn into a tree
fall time come around
the crunch you hear is me
When the time come tuck me in
go on let me sleep forever
All of my beliefs be severed
there must be a way to live
beyond a Doubt
Now I be confessing
Every time we learn a lesson
Every time we feel regression
we get farther from the world
beyond a Doubt

Be Nice to Yourself
02:05

Be nice to yourself when you’ve got no one else to hear.
Airin' out my worries best I can
Blowin’ smoke rings anger second hand
What is there to worry about when you’re near
Present nature of a presence oh so dear
Never Fear
