when i think of which order it goes in
i find it weird that i could ever forget
in a second im a granite goliath
with a meteor space worth of chest
as of lately i have been levitating
involuntarily, when im upset
i brought a souvenir back here to play with
ill tell you all about it after ive left
wrapped all around you
im a christmas sweater
and i smile inside
because i know that
i am better than
i was in the darkness
vision equals palms
mission equals harm
mission equals harm
warm and alone
monochrome inner city
and i smile inside
because i know that
i am prettier than him
on the fire escape smoking darts
center of my thoughts
center of my thoughts
and then everybody knows
aha aha
everybodys seen what theres to be seen
im the disembodied charm of a seesaw
youre the disembodied teeth of a dream
welcome to the communal indictment
lift the gossip and make me clean
and then everybody knows
aha aha
i am dan and people understand me
look at the poor boy on the bridge
feed him a cracker and make him wretch
put him into bed with the window shut
feed him a cracker and make him drunk
hold him close
dont let go
push him now
push him far
watch him melt
by himself
he will stick
he is tar

a dog will do
just about anything for food
so im thinking i should choke
every single hope i have for you
so i feel like a dog in pursuit
a submarine set to implode in the ocean so
tell her i said no
tell her i told you no
i know things you wish youd done
i know things that he just cant
even when i eat it up
even when i eat it up
you got inside my head

baby in my skin
i will crush him from within
i will crush him from outside
i will rip out every eye
and he'll still follow you around like a plague
baby from within
i will dissolve all the sin
and your skin will start to burn
so ill clean off all the dirt
and he'll still follow you around like a curse
i am very warm
let me universe my arms
let me pinch your little palms
i will punch your little palms
he will try to charm
everything is here
i know everything is here
for i am this soul of love
as i am this hole of fear
and i'll undo the rope as he brings you near
its only all it is

they go coming
out to get me
i am nothing
i am nothing
will be throbbing
will be thrashing
heavy breathing
bit of anger
and he doesnt
doesnt deserve you
hes an asshole
he will hurt you
did you think that
you could leave this
he will throw his
on the highway
are you with him
christ has risen
its a big deal
its a big deal
make it spinning
make it blurring
its a big deal
its a big deal
have a single
got a double
im in trouble
he is healthy
he is humble
im in trouble

lady mangled
babys hanging out with the wrong crowd
she is hinging like a closet door corner
scraping on the ground
i remember
i remember
i remember
i remember it
large jaw swollen talking normalcy
whiskey sipping cigarettes
here i am
with a bottle in my hand
and a column in my head
saying you're so good
here you are with
a plan to pull apart
and a man to fuck up
with a you're no good
even peter mary caesar
and the others are all drunk
and as gremlins
all your friends are annoying as fuck
baby frenzy
your perceptions
all perceptions are now off
small jaw holding conversation
sober crying kettle cross
here i am
with a bottle in my hand
and a column in my head
saying you're so good
here you are with
a plan to pull apart
and a man to fuck up
with a you're no good

i am coming
you cant prevent me
theres nothing left to do
i saw you standing
your brain expanding
in the living room
you see nothing
yeah you know nothing
but you will do what she wants
around the corner
stored in the closet
packed up safe in the dark

she paused
to stop
the wildfire
after
before
it goes away
i like
to think
that she
was you
it goes
away
so soon
you goon
this is the worst one you've done
she rests
on the bed
she sleeps
on your leg
you know
that she
is fucking your head
you need
her voice
to call
your phone
but theres
no noise
tonight
its alone
this is the worst one you've done
and i feel
i feel
i feel so

in my top drawer

what happened before
i hope you're happy
i know you're happy now

Leave It Alone

i lost my eyes
for the third fucking time this year
it burned fiery red
when the sight came back to my head
then i apologized
when i had no reason to do so
it filled in my mouth
with the dirt in your couch
now im choking up here
where your roots grow
i got so drunk
my brain got too heavy to hold
and know your head is bloody
with my newly external thoughts
i lost my front
i got spray painted black
and now no one can see me
in the calm suburban dark
if you come in here with me there will be something waiting for you
if you come in here with me there will be something that has grown
if you come in here with me there you will see things that were meant to die
if you come in here with me you beg me to leave it alone

holding hands
we ought to kill this man
we brought a plague that dampens dreams
and blackens his days into charcoal
i know its bad
oh we got the gist of that
the more we make
we stab the seams
and staple on his little barcode
he says everything
feels kind of obsolete
and that hes not as healthy
as the boy you saw
and then i fret
because theres something
i dont get
and theres nothing
he would do to know about it less
back off my bones
get off my flesh
go look for the rest
because i can't find your sense of fairness
i can't find your self awareness
dont you know you're fucking selfish
i wont trust
the people i disgust
as they take the past
to pasteurize
and pulverise it into CHUTNEY
loss of love
the type i can't speak of
im no ruiner
i am numb
its lovely
i am numb
so watch me
clean up the rest
factory reset
back to being happy
and occasionally depressed
you'll soak it up
you'll wake to open arms
no more hand in hand
you have made a mess
you have made a mess
i say sorry through my teeth
you cover me in gasoline
i can't find your sense of fairness
i can't find your self awareness
don't you know youre fucking selfish
you dont know what growth you impose
so dont act close to me
but in the end i guess the best was meant to be
