A Town Called Death
01:50
|
|||
we only go enough gas left
to get a town called death
and everyone's bummin' my cigarettes
i'm so sick of it
i'm sick of all my friends
i'm sick of all these ends
i'm sick of buildings
i'm so sick of tress
i'm sick of streets
fuck i'm even sick of the sea
but mainly
i'm just sick of me
it's a town full of ghosts
who sit in shadow
they sing songs of rust
between phases of dust
but baby
i'm not sick of you
and maybe
you won't run me thru

in the neon district
yr mother was too strict
you'd always get loose
so i could get into you
in the neon district
i kissed yr lips
put my hands on yr hips
ever since we were kids
the red sky
doesn't lie
just like yr eyes
hey naomi
this is ricky
in the neon district
i lie down with you
in satellite park
beneath a kerosene moon
maybe maybe maybe
we're doomed
never to rise again
like a cursed crow
instead of a phoenix
in the neon district
we sat under an orange tree
to count the bees
put ice on our stings

we put our faith in stones
in neon lights and drones
they're going to find me somehow
there's no running now
sea of cigarettes and piss
i always knew i'd die like this
tongue spilling on the floor
man in black hanging at my door
wake up and start to scream
i know you're trying to murder me
there are spiders on the bed
i can feel them on my head
you say there's nothing there
but there are webs in yr hair
the bird is actually a drone
the rabbits are microphones
i gotta walk quick thru the park
there are people hiding in the dark
first it's questioning and grabbing
then it's panting and stabbing
i'm bleeding
bleeding

The Drugs Pt. 4

baby
do you have any codeine
something to help me sleep
do you have any alcohol
something to break my fall
do you have any weed
something to save me
do you have any vicodin
something to do me in
oh did i mention
i have so many addictions
to cigarettes
and left handed women
and baby
i'm not free
in this lithium reality
i'm not me
on these meds they feed me
it's not yr job
to make me sober
but stick around
until it's over
please stay
'til i'm okay
and baby
do you have any codeine

O Death!

o death
don't come to me in spring
i know what you bring
alot of nothing
o death
i tried to find you here
in front of my bathroom mirror
you were so near
o death
i just try to forget
yr cold sweat
all over my head
o death
yer in my lithium
in my spiced rum
in the fucking neon hum
o death
i'll find you someday
i know i'll find a way
to see you and stay

flowers&storms

i trampled thru flowers & storms
just to sleep with you on the floor
woke up feeling tired and sore
don't remember anything from before
so i'll try to memorize
these moments yr freckles scars & eyes
before they up & fade away
like that sunburn on yr face
naomi
yer the only promise i keep
even tho i lose my mind & leave
naomi
the truth is i am useless
the demons are constant ruthless
light to ash shimmer to shade
i'll live w/ the choices i have made
but you glow in my bones
a lighthouse guiding me home
naomi
yer the only promise i keep
even tho i lose my mind & leave
naomi
naomi

my throat is closing shut and swollen
my stomach is churning molten
i'm sweating and writhing under the sheet
every ten minutes i have to pee
i'm just trying to fall asleep
but my head crashes and beeps
it's not the same as the other side
it's not as black and white
symmetrical cuts make pretty scars
like pearlescent prison bars
vomit in the shower into a bag
clean up the rest with a rag
my hands are shaking from the meds
the seasons of my mood are dead
replaced with a colorless fall
smashing my head against the wall
to feel anything at all
i'm drowning in salt
salt

Worthless Wreck
02:55
|

baby we'll die in a worthless wreck
tell me how you wanna kiss
do you want me to kiss yr neck
or maybe brush yr lips
baby we'll die in a worthless wreck
i crashed nodding out to a cigarette
burns on my shirt ash on my head
you asleep with yr cheeks all red
driving to a town called Death
baby we'll die in a worthless wreck
i don't know how we're still friends
but i don't want this to end
we can go out holding hands
let's go out holding hands
then i'll know who i am
then i'll know who i am
baby we'll die in a worthless wreck
trail of debris a burning flame
safe to say i'm always to blame
but i hope yer happy i still came
that you missed me when i was away
