Flies
01:57
|
|||
i'm speaking to the flies
like they're going to tell me which direction
i should flow
they're buzzing in my ears
speaking lots of lies
mocking me at every pause
i am not like water
i am more like lava

Undream them
03:38
|
|||
keep an ear to the ground
needle in your eye
i will not tell you again
sing soft to myself
riding a thin line
i will not tell you
keep slipping, keep weeping
heavy winter, ice dripping
cross my heart wish to die
needle in my eye
i will not tell you again
give words to the wise
honey for the flies
i'm growing bitter
undream them! forsaken
heavy winter, ice dripping
i feel like I'm sinking slowly
i cannot take much lately
i'm low energy
low energy
things are moving much too slowly
i can't take much lately I am
crazy I'm fucking crazy

8 pieces
02:15
|
|||
spent a long time just try try forget
it doesn't matter
an untold story can choose not to exist
"oh so sorry oh i didn't know
oh oh so sorry oh I thought you wanted this"
you look so happy with yourself
hope all the pleasure was worth it
it didn't matter how I felt
i know you don't think I'm worth it
spent a long time just try try forget
it doesn't matter
an untold story can choose not to exist
"oh oh sorry oh I didn't know
oh oh oh sorry oh I thought you wanted this"
you knew just what you were doing
you take whatever you want
you look so happy with yourself
don't forget all your wrong doings
dirty worm on the ground now
chop you into 8 pieces
worm heart in every piece
all of them weak, incomplete
i can conjur up anything
anything at all
you'll get what's coming to you
i could ruin you ruin you ruin you at last
you'll get what you deserve

Spinal pressures
03:06
|
|||
feelin pressure in the length of my spine it's
leaking out of every orafice it's slime
glued my hand to every surface I touched
i feel my body misaligned but I can't wake up
i can't do it I'll never figure it out
it's no use I'll never figure it out
save your breath I don't wanna figure it out
let me go I'll never figure it out
i figured it out
sleeping sound in sandal bed
emptiness strewn through my head
no way to figure out every dream
undream the dream unless I find meaning
i can't do it I'll never figure it out
it's no use I'll never figure it out
save your breath I don't wanna figure it out
let me go I'll never figure it out
i figured it out
i figured it out

Salt
02:54
|
|||
you can die if you want to
it's not up to me
you can smile at the far side
or shrink up into nothing
but i'll be there
sinking like a stone
and you can tear
the rest of me apart
you can hide if your scared
sink into the cracks
misshapen natural form
you'll break your mothers back
but rain will fall
and fill your empty spaces
and salt will rain
how we all float away
you shut your mouth bitch
i'm going down the drain

Normal worms
02:09
|
|||
i've been feeling that it's not so normal
energy that you cannot control
everything is alive in its own way
i've found so much spirit in decay
i may as well be rotting away
it's a current, pushing me down river
nearly drowning but I don't really bother
if I struggle I'll only spend myself
i'm not even trying
i've been feeling that I have no power
things live on without me and I'm sour
there's shadows creeping round my room
i'll have to face them pretty soon
they have a right to this space too
it's a strange light coming from behind me
and it's golden but I don't think it's pretty
it gets brighter and is so overwhelming
and now I can't see
