Goodbye my friends
Late at night or early morning
And though I'll see you when I'm home
This is burned out
Terraform.

What could I say?
We're all waiting on the world to change
How long must we wait?
Wait out alee
At sea we must stay
Queasy
And rattled by
The past away we must stay
Everyone is so angry
Today
Everyone is so angry Today
A loss of joy so great
Crippled by the way things have become
Everyone
Everyone
Everyone
Is just so angry today
Out alee at sea we must stay
Queasy and rattled by the past away
We must stay
Everyone
Everyone
Everyone.

Do you fear what I fear?
Tell the kids I love them
I've grown withdrawn
I won't be seen again
Do you fear what I fear?

My Left Hand

It's hard to believe
How long it's been
Since I could breathe
It's hard to believe
How long it's been
Since I had breathed
My left hand
Saved me from certain fatality
There's no time to grieve
But there's more time for me.

Waking up

So this is where our story starts?
Or is this where it ends?
The past is set in stone
The path is set in stone
“Do you know where this ends?”
As I said it’s just beginning
Waking up covered in bedsores
Always tired
They open up
Open up
It’s not the same
Oh how things have changed
Lately I’ve been wracking my brain
Thinking about the same old things
Every day I wake up tired
Never gotten enough sleep
How long have I been under?
I’m so tired I can’t think
Waking up
Covered in bedsores
The coma I will slip into
I don’t know if I’ve been on my way to
Am I wasting out?
Or am I just drunk?
I’ve been losing weight for many years
Anxiety has filled me full of tears
And it’ll kill me one of these years
It’s not even a question
The question therein lies whether
I can learn to cope
I’ve been under for way too long
So much so that I can’t remember the sun
I can’t remember
Do you feel bad for me?
Do you think that I should quit?
Every day is nearer to the end
Running out of time
Waking up
Covered in bedsores
Been thinking an awful lot of things
With a blanket wrapped about me
Is everything okay?
And is it worth repairing?
Has it all just fallen apart?
I think they’re one in the same.

Orphan Source

Welcome to the indiscriminate slaughter of the dogs
I'm sending you my love and I miss you so dearly
The croon of the endling echoes out to fall on blind eyes and deafened ears
Should I wade into the harbor out of the bay east towards the sea?
Due east to the Atlantic where the wind blows out alee
My face grows red and purple
As I'm aspirating leaves
That's what it feels like to be me
The orphan source set to explode
Ready to be spread
Killed by invisible forces
Turn all of the top soil
And bury me below
It's the fatal contagion of the tortured soul
Should I wade into the harbor out of the bay east towards the sea?
Due east to the Atlantic where the wind blows out alee
My face turns reddened
I told you the truth but at what cost to you and I...so?
Should I wade into the harbor out of the bay east towards the sea?
Due east to the Atlantic where the wind blows out alee
Should I wade?
This is the meltdown of your mind
The corium of skull strewn and scattered about your room
We're starting over
Encased in lead and concrete tombs
From death and back to the womb.

It's almost as if nobody cares
I remember everything from all of those years
I fear that the things that I struggle with will follow me to the end
Impending doom
It's not like I wanted to
It's not like I wanted to
It's not like I hadn't tried
The failures in your life
They pile up
For safekeeping I think about them from time to time
The world that we live in
It's not built for people like me
Please don't panic
I wish I could tell you everything
But I can't
I must pretend
Nobody knows it
And it'll stay that way
And that's the same as before
Everyone has feared it
It's time to call it quits
It's time.

Procession Premonition

Stoke the fire
Of an already dire situation
Premonitions of a body lying
Motionless and still
Regarding my will
Write it up neatly
Give it all to my sister
For when I'm gone I want something good for her
'Cause I am the final bird
I am the final bird
I am the final bird.

Do you feel the softness of my stubbled skin?
When I look in the mirror
I see all the damage I've done over the years
I don't look the same as I used to
And lest we forget our graven fight
I will win
I will win
I will win
I will win
I will win
I will win
I will win
I will win

I've failed again
The argument I don't understand
Clench and beat yourself with both hands
I should run and flee out to the desert where it's clean and lonely
He said to me "Hold on Magnolia"
When he sang so gently swaying side to side in my Mini
On i83
By my favorite towers looming over my home city
Teach me to speak
Physical illiteracy destroying me slowly
I am failing again
The argument I don't understand
Clench and beat yourself with both hands
Into the drifting sands
Oh to breathe
Oh
I've lost love and faith in humanity
I don't seem to fit in this society
Teach me to read
Read your faces and your bodies
But I'm torn
I don't want people to know me for real
I should run and flee out to the desert where it's clean and lonely
And so Phil said "the true state of all things"
And that brings much solace to me
Knowing that's how it will be
The monotony of life flowing by
Daily
It is what it is you see.
