Love my baby when we both go to therapy
Love my home while I've got electricity
Love my body when I watch my calories
Love my god when it's all in front of me
Is it wrong that I feel alright
'cause I feel alright
Hate my friends when they don't call me back
Hate my house when foundation starts to crack
Hate my body when tattoos start to fade
A façade of a god in his name we pray
Is it wrong that I feel alright
'cause I feel alright
Go to work
Come back home
Hit the bowl
Pay the crows
Go to work
Come back home
Hit the bowl
Sleep in stone
Go to work
Come back home
Hit the bowl
Ride the glow
Go to work
Pay the toll
Come back home
Hit the bowl
Go to work
Pay the toll
Come back home
Hit the bowl

Portal to a Sunset
02:54

I lift the shade mirror exposed
A standing stone
No rock of my own, no rock of my own
Staring down the edge of the earth, a year gone by
And where I sit used to be where angels fly
Portal to a sunset
Busy west coast getting trashed with my friends
Inevitably a safe bet
Swore I'd say the kaddish for you
Moses' blessings unto you
Quit smoking in 1991 for the birth of your grandson
I'll take another drag for you, even if you wouldn't want me to
Portal to a sunset

Forest Green

Forest Green pressed against a deep blue sea
Halocene a question for you and me
So obscene red and black as symmetry
Kerosene poured by the descendents of Eve
And I don't know what I don't
I don't know what the future holds
I don't know what I don't know
I don't know
Ketamine collage of blue and green
The smoke that screens me from reality
Fantasies of suburban families
A summer breeze that lasts
For eternity
And I don't know what I don't
I don't know what the future holds
I don't know what I don't know
I don't know

Going Through It

Sunken into the depths
Let hell pull out the rest
The end of a deep breath
on repeat I count to ten
Checking my pulse again
on repeat I count to ten
Her belief in me
Something I could never see
An echo of a stream
A force of greed
Casts a shadow over me
Someone else's dream
Sunken into the depths
Let hell pull out the rest
The end of a deep breath
on repeat I count to ten
Checking my pulse again
on repeat I count to ten
Checking my pulse again
on repeat I count to ten
Goin thro

Talk to Me
00:35
|

Fate she knits the black wool that drapes the last frontier
She reveals that she's disappeared
Tired of talking in absolutes
I don't know nothing
I guess that counts as something

Don't Talk to Me
01:32

You talk to me
You don't talk to me
Love you like I love me
Hate me, I shouldn't, I do
Like headphones in your pocket
I get tangled the more you mess with me I guess
Love you
Fuck you
Are you alright, are you okay
I'm gonna keep asking till you're forced to make something up
Like headphones in your pocket
I get tangled the more you mess with me I guess
Love you
Fuck you
