lyrics

government like a cancerbeast:
“you’ve got what I need,”
and a few emotional X-Files episodes later…

I’m so tired
let it go

you scrape the skin – rather, it scrapes you
you’re only scratching the surface.
you’ve got to get to the organs;
you’ve got to rip out the heart.

it did not believe in you;
it will continue doing as it do.
it must be destroyed;
you must be sure you’ve got the heart, though,
or whatever parasite’s inside controlling,
and spare the host.

pale green
lumpy mass
black-green
high-pitched
chirping

when bees swarm in my brain,
I smoke them out;
when spiders crawl on my skin,
I poison them.

but now, I don’t have these things;
I’ve no control,
so now I’ve got to figure out
my own system.

who is it that said it?– but
I’ll say it again:
“The brightest lights are in the darkenss.”
the highest flights are when you’re grounded.

what flames can induce
pills can’t undo
little compression
holding it in
can’t contain explosion’s
enigmatic rambling interdimensional
massless form

whatever inside me that makes me me,
you know, me,
is unidentifiable,
as unidentifiable
as the antity within me
that causes this unrest
and keeps me on my toes,
able to keep making the wrong decisions
(but also the right ones).

she chose a normal day,
and Scully holds a bone-saw.

government like a cancerbeast:
“you’ve got what I need.”

you scrape the skin – rather, it scrapes you
you’ve got to get to the organs.
you’re only scratching the surface;
you’ve got to rip out the heart.
you’ve got to destroy the fucking heart,
and it’ll look up with those big eyes:
it’ll say, “Hope in me;
believe in me.

Flesh Eater Nashville, Tennessee

the Flesh Eater is the dark mass growing ever larger, pressing against Your diaphragm, scuttling on the inside of Your skull; It gnaws through till It is seen; let It out
