lyrics

(We dance though no one’s left around
And when we sing it’s like there is no sound
The worlds moved on so we have found.
The lights turned out the dancehall drowned)

(One last dance before the dawn
What do you do when the anger’s gone)

So. It’s all about blood?
You are always looking for excuses
To put your hands inside each other
In a thousand little ways…
You’re all obsessed with death!
You disgust me.
Goddamnit.
Do you hear me?
Do you fucking hear me?

Are we playing god again?
Are we playing god again!?!


Fuck you.

(I guess it’s death we want)

You know i’ve solved the problem of evil.
You’re just not going to like it

(Whether what we want is death)
(It’s what we’re gonna get)

Sing to me, O muse
I care not of what
A pale green and golden tide
Washes in out, through open tunnels
Opened eyes
I-
I…can’t seem to recall now
What came before the fall? How
Did the words go?


I used to have it memorized…
I fear my mind-
I fear my mind.

You come to me tender voice
With gentle hand
To hold my wounded heart and-
Fuck you! Don’t touch me
Don’t touch me

I know blood…
And I can do miracles.

I can do miracles!

Can’t I?

Can’t I?

Whences comes the flood?
Massive blood
Loss curtain close
God only knows
It’s so fucking derivative
Do you hear me, I said do you goddamn hear me?
Blood is compulsory
You traffic in empty cruelty and cheap misery
All artists are fucking sadists

Another nonsense soliloquy
Even I don’t know what I mean
What you mean
Spare me!

(I wish I could tell you)

Your intricate mechanistic explanations of the universe
Your absurdist platitudes
All your myriadic attitudes
Your love in the face of tragedy

(We are playing god again)

Is that what you want from me?

Just rip my heart out, your bastards
At least that’s honest, then you’ll have your fucking answers.

Look, look it doesn’t hurt but it certainly stings!
How much can I write and not say anything!!!!

I need…
I need…
I need a drink.
I need to sleep.

(We dance though no one’s left around
And when we sing it’s like there is no sound
The worlds moved on so we have found.
The lights turned out the dancehall drowned)

What does a man have to do to get
A little goddamn peace and quiet around here!

So fucking derivative.

But it’s not like I can take it back!
Still I feel the fingers on my spine
The strings in my back!

Still. For now
It’s not real
I want to hold your hand against my chest and say
Feel what I feel!
Feel what I feel!
Feel what I feel!

So fucking self indulgent
So fucking self indulgent

Oh god
That’s unsalvageable
C'mon people, one more time, let’s take it from the top
