Just an Echo

The kids play
By the schoolyard
I’m not like them now
Can you hear me
Or the thunder?
Won’t you hold my hand
In the dark------
Here, creeping after me
Leave me, Leave me
The kids play
By the schoolyard
I’m not like them now
Can you hear me
Or the thunder?
Won’t you hold my hand
In the dark
Current not blue, burns, not soothes
Fish on a line, and me
Enveloped in a battle cry
Step aside, step aside
Just an echo
Here, creeping after me
Leave me, Leave me
Here, the words don’t make a sound
This is just an echo

This Monster
04:07

“I only have six months,” he said
His eyes were wet, his eyes were wet
He held a candle near his chin
His body let this monster in
His body let this monster in
“What am I to do with this
What about my wife and kids
How can I abandon them"
His body let this monster in
His body let this monster in
You only have six months, I said
To be the man you’ve always been
To hold your wife and love your kids
Why does it have to come to this?
His body let this monster in
His body is a dying man
He left his candle in my hands
He left and never came again
He died and never came again

Small Machines

Small machines
Like people work together
doing nothing to make something
Small machines
Like people work together
doing nothing to make something
Little people singing
I don’t want sex
I don’t want sex
Just money for my family
Just for love and bread
Our love and bread, we keep it on the table
You are a girl, I am a man
That doesn’t mean that I like puzzles
I’m part of something riding on a subway
With a billion cars, maybe
But I’m squeezing out like toothpaste
Oh, on a Sunday
When you still think it’s time for church
I don’t want sex
I don’t want sex
I looked at porn tonight
because of TV – it was TV
I watch it with my family
And my grandparents were married at 20
They were married at 20
and I’m 30, almost 8, almost 18
and almost trying to get off the train while living
Oh, fairy tales are fiction
Fairy tales are fictional
A night in shining armor
with a sword to fuck the princess
but I don’t want sex
And I don’t want to love just one, or cut my hair
Or make you want to fuck me
I just want to think
About the way you love

Doesnt Feel Like Spring

It doesn’t feel like spring
‘Til the sun is shining
It’s the middle of april
And we’ve only had rain
The sun won’t shine
‘Til we come to our senses
But that won’t ever happen
So the winter stays
Splash me with the urine
I keep pouring in your water
Because I’m only consuming
To perpetuate dying
So someone consume me
So my life can start living
And give me your voices
Sing me awake
It doesn’t feel like spring
‘Til the sun is shining
It’s the middle of april
And we’ve only had rain
The sun won’t shine
‘Til we come to our senses
But once we settle down
We’ve got nothing to say
I'm tired of sleeping
Give me your morning
Stop it with that grieving
‘Cause nothing has changed, and we’re
Living in fire
A fire, we started
So keep on, moving
‘Cause that’s what they say
It doesn’t feel like spring
‘Til the sun is shining
It’s the middle of april
And we’ve only had rain
The sun won’t shine
‘Til we come to our senses
But once we settle down, we’ve got nothing to say X3

These Silent Days
06:00
|

I have tried everything
I don’t know what I need
To make the scenery shake
To make my image move
And when you’re far away
And through these silent days
Part of me has escaped
I find my thoughts with you
I have tried everything
I don’t know what I need
To make the air ring true
I still love you
And when you’re far away
And through these silent days
Part of me has escaped
I find my thoughts with you
And when you’re far away
And through these silent days
Part of me has escaped
I find my thoughts with you---
I find my thoughts with you---
I find my thoughts with you
