I follow every line,
every twitch around your eyes
Your frame objectified
The pain your nerves defy
Tap into me
Explore the corners of my bowels
and turn my insides out
Stain the paper with each round,
record the rhythm
Endurance
Convert us
Resurface me whole
Motionless in the star of flames
Choose your weapons wisely
Your absolution will define us
You’ve got your fingers down my throat,
test limits of control
Do you catalogue the wounds
and feed off them?
Endurance
Convert us
Resurface me whole

Salt Or Cyanide
03:40

I feel safe in these altitudes
Nail me down and run me through
I can’t hear what you’re tripping to
Nail me down and run me through
I feel sane in your gratitude
Nail me down and run me through
I can’t say what you’re clinging to
Nail me down and run me through
When we walk away,
will I ever get the rest I got around you?
Tight hold
And my head is hanging upside down
It’s been strange, looking into you
Nail me down and run me through
We’ve locked eyes in the interlude
Nail me down and run me through
It’s been vague, looking over you
Nail me down and run me through
We’ve grown roots in the interlude
Nail me down and run me through
When we walk away,
will I ever get the rest I got around you?
Tight hold
And my head is hanging upside down.
Could you taste it in the sweat that drips from my chin?
That I breed it, need it
Obsess about it every day
Did you prepare and arm yourself?
Was there distinctiveness to your stay?
It boils down to salt or cyanide.
My body’s cold

Delta Waves

Entangled in the imagery
Heavy flow in upstream arteries
Two eyes below the surface
Sweet and shallow spot
Half asleep and nervous
Hear you, I cannot
Entangled in the imagery
Tracing wavelengths inconsistently
The others seem at peace here
They tell me to stay calm
Though your skin is callous
Wrap me in your palm
I won’t let you overtire
Overshadow your desires
Deprive your skin of light
Walk the fields where I lie
Take me far lower
and stretch the frame of time
Just for one moment,
our consciousness collides
Walking over you
Your resistance is a brush of a feather
Walking over you
Tear open slowly,
the sky above my eyes
Transcend the distance
between your will and mine
I won’t let you overtire
Overshadow your desires
Deprive your skin of light
Walk the fields where I lie

Shared Bodies
04:14

Soften the crescendo
Silhouettes through stained glass windows
Thick snow covers you
Bite my lips, slipping away, slipping away from here
I’m not at your beck and call, now
Turn a blind eye to the ghosts I’ve been sleeping with
And I will try not to hunt yours down
Anticipation
I can’t sustain it
Cheap frustration
So dialated
Caress you with a blanket of warm breath
Washing out the mutual shades of blue
From our mouths, stale smoke whispers
Bodies shared that hardly stay in tune
Whatever I am hauling is yours now
And it doesn’t make a difference to you
Cause you just want to be desired
Starve me, I’m craving
Keep me from staying
This shape ain’t mine,
It’s all for the taking

Delicate Apathy
02:57
|
|

I never meant to neglect you,
despite the duality
Cut loose from this delicate apathy
Will you follow suit if I just try to stay warm?
Dreaming away every passing storm
Every inch of your affection feels undeserved
Surviving on a steady diet of repeat and reverse
I never meant to neglect you,
despite the duality
Cut loose from this delicate apathy
Was it in the cards, for us to strangle it slow?
Never sure if my aim’s too high or too low
We’re cutting corners
We’re running on fumes
Did you feel restored, head to toe in his skin?
Always felt constricted in the set that I’m in.
Never been compelled to revisit those scenes.
But I can't place an ounce of blame on your choice of retreat.
I am the serpent and the preacher, still the same child
Don’ t haste the daybreak, crawl inside me for a short while
You are the limb I can’t sever to save my life
You are the limb I can’t sever to save my life

This day and age is so
This day and age is so over you
This day and age is so
This day and age is so over you
Flying lower
Drain me sober
I can’t let you see this hanging over me
Deceive you into thinking I can shoulder you
I see daylight when in full disguise
Pure and ripe
Running down my spine
I don’t mind
Razor sharp on the edges of the bliss that surrounds you
I’ve kept my distance to our own fragility
Stand in line for my share of the loss that you’ve been through
Standing by for the curtains to this fantasy
Got a clear view
Waiting for cells to divide
Cold and quiet
I’ve grown accustomed to your breath down my neck
Dent my illusion of safety void of strife
I’ve grown accustomed to your threats pulling me under
Over and over I wonder who’s to go
I’ve grown accustomed to your breath down my neck
Dent my illusion of safety void of strife
I’ve grown

Vertebrae

Dive into your mind
Swimming through the muddled tides
Forcing all the colors to bleed through
I cannot decide
I’m unavailable all the time
Catch my teeth on your frail youth
In on it for a taste of how you hold yourself
You are a thousand parts of every ache you shelve
All you do is dance,
through every hour and circumstance
Everything I touch, I wreck
Need to be around every song and stuttered sound
To stay in tune with the offset
I want to yearn
I can’t commit to anything
All that I want is everything
I can’t commit to anything
All that I want is
It takes forever
Construct and hold together
Disclose, contract and shiver

Sleeping Next To
03:49
|

You know I’ll carve my space in time for the last call
Carve my space and hide
Whether it’s the knot in my chest or grind in my knees
Carve my space and hide
Remind me that we’re destined to undress somewhere
I don’t know how not to flirt with seclusion
Sleeping next to
Swallow light like the ocean
Subdue the hunger with silence so golden
What makes your anger swell?
You know I’ll carve my space in time for the last call
Carve my space and hide
Whether it’s the knot in my chest or grind in my knees
Carve my space and hide
I just want to feel and be told that I’m sound
I can’t bear to think I need no one around
I just want to see this through

On Wings Of Paper Planes
03:54
|
|||
Did you feel the symptoms trimming off the edge?
Shaving off the static of your every pledge
Dead tired and unsound
Of time, you run out
Thinning out the herd
Overwrite the urge
Like your darkness thicker, like to court your fear?
With your burdens lighter, keep your ceilings near.
Dead tired and unsound
Of time, you run out
Thinning out the herd
Overwrite the urge
Intricate circuitry
Pass through my perception
Craft phrases carefully
Kaleidoscopic tension
Inside the archives,
skinning it down to the bone
Bring me to full boil,
every last drop that I hold
Every last drop that I hold
Every pleasure outgrown
All attraction’s benign
Stagnant rotations
Defiling the sacred
I’m losing my patience with time
Outstretch the ending
And finish defending the ruins that you call your home
