Ain’t it funny how the heat of yesterday
Cools down at some point
Forever and always
Nothing stays hot forever
Every star burns out eventually
Hey hey, what do you know?
Your time will come and go
And whatever’s eternal now
Is soon past its expiration date
We said we’d be young forever
But my grey hair’s telling me I ain’t who I used to be
And I’ll never be anything more
Than a wayward soul or rock and roll
Fading with the streetlights
Shining in the gutter
Washed away in the midnight rain

Ink Mirror

Tilt your head
And the mirror tilts back
You can’t see someone else’s reflection
Spill the ink
Tell me what you see
You can’t see someone else’s reflection
I am truly a work of art
Forcing you to interpret yourself
Squint your eyes
Stand far away
But all that comes to your mind’s eye
Is everything you hold inside
Break the glass
And your face breaks back
Whitewash the canvas
And the nothing paints you
You can’t see someone else’s reflection
The ink mirror tells all

Point and Laugh

How’s it feel to lose it all?
Threw away the ones who care
All in the hopes of greener acres
Only to find you can’t climb the gates
You’ll be alone
You’ll be alone
The fault you bear
Is all your own
It’s utterly delectable
To watch you eat the fruits you’ve sown
It’s truly special
To see you sip on that bitter nectar
Gravity, you son of a gun
Bring em down when they fly to close to the sun
Don’t you dare come crawling back
You can say you’re sorry
but I’ll only point and laugh

I see the little devil in your defense
I see the little breaks and cracks in your soul
If you wanna be a hot shot
Then you better have the wits to cover your 6
Before you start acting like an asshole
Never fuck with a scavenger
cuz I eat little maggots like you as a snack
Never step to my drum beat
Cuz I know your rhythm and it ain’t got swing

Blossom, not a Cherry
00:53

Viewed as unessential
My life is disposable
But what is mine is mine
And my days are precious
I refuse to be
Your dirty little secret
I won’t be your harbor
To sail in fair weather
I’ll no longer stand
To be the back door man
Even though it hurts
I know what I’m worth
A flower sowing seeds
Not a fruit to top dessert

Aloe Vera

Aloe vera ain’t enough
I need to fistfight the sun
That fuck burned a hole in my skin
And now I’m radiating nuclear energy
You fucking self important ball in the heavens
What the hell did I do to you?
Almost a million hundred miles in space
What on earth are you tryin’a prove?
I’ll never go out in the daylight again
If this is what I get for being diurnal
I’ll side with the moon, a soft reflection of you
And champion for a midnight eternal

Terminal Societal Debt
01:03
|

When you’ve smoked every cigarette
In the carton you bought with blood money
Eaten every rotten apple
You sowed with dead and broken hearts
Where do you go from here?
Sometimes virtue’s an unattainable privilege
And sometime’s an angel’s just a demon who never got caught
When your best suit is stained with vomit
And your hands are marked with 666
You’ve paid your dues that left you defective
But you gotta live with those who reject you
What do you do when your second chance is up
And you live to tell the tale?
Do you tie the knot and kick the chair
A sacrifice to please the people?
When they want your blood
And you’ve given til you’re faint
Embrace your inner sinner
If you’re rejected the path of saints

Untitled and Unnecessary

I don’t ever wanna be famous
I just want you to know who I am
I don’t want the crowds to cheer my name
I just want my heart and soul to be recognized
Larger than life is not my size
Stadium lights are far too bright
Nothing turns me off more than
People begging to be turned on
Years go by
Fingers worn to the bone
All the seeds I’ve grown
When will I have my flowers?
it doesn’t matter
It doesn’t matter at all
