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

O Death! 01:59
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

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
9.
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
