Alchemist

I’m done biding my time
confined
to this bunker
scraping for change
under the piercing gaze
of ever changing wonder
lingering
Combining energies
from outside the known aesthetic
when known formulas prove to be
unnecessary anesthetics
My calculations sound
I risked death from exposure
tiny atoms split as mushroom clouds
vaporized without closure
Then the end came swift like a rocket
with the tail of a comet
and I saw its every move
but I did not die in the blast
irradiated
slow death

The Wrong Thing
02:00
|

|
I’ll say the wrong thing
to the wrong guy
get in a big fight
with a big guy
and I’ll feel so small
I’ll feel so small
but its better than
nothing at all
I’ll pick a big fight
with a big guy
I’ll get punched real hard
and probably cry
do you know why
I’ve got a deathwish
He walked my way in a crowd
then I didn’t move over
we made contact
shoulder to shoulder
skulls thick as boulders
glasses shattered
as they hit the ground

Flourescent Light
02:21
|

Reflect
though you haven’t seen it yet
the mirror’s blank instead
and i’m convinced i’m dead
What’s next
the tension’s coming back
every feeling is strained
filtered through migraines
I can’t see the sky
only the fluorescent light
I would rather die
than suffer
a heartless culture
a loveless life
under the fluorescent light
It just sucks out all your life
your cold colorless life
I would rather die
than suffer
a loveless life
under the fluorescent light

Under Your Shoe
02:12

You crushed me under your shoe today
but my little legs still squirm
I mounded up into a hole
safe the in the warm earth
You cut me right in half today
and all of my five hearts broke
wriggled off in different ways
twisted up like a worm
I swore that I’d grow wings today
instead it just got worse
compressed into a cocoon
hanging on your words
You aimed that magnifying glass
it burned and burned
and you just laughed
you just need something to hurt
You crushed me under your shoe today
but my little legs still squirm
my guts out on the floor
you just need something to hurt

Mania
02:40
|
|||
|
There’s a feeling back there somewhere
that I know I could feel
I felt something for a moment
and cracked a smile
they called it mania
