listen to me
and you will not be in want
your mouth grows cold from 
the hands which hold
too much gold
disappear, fade into the night
dance with the shadows
circuit bombs and happy songs
hold me close
i'm listening
just a little bit closer
just a little bit longer
maybe i just want to know
feel the rush
the risk of being run over
a total disregard for myself
and just to carry on living
a little nearer to the end
don't let me stop you from the edge
all the time in the world for ressurection
before the almighty smites us all
then we shall see our release
and once again walk the earth without shackles
don't judge me more than you can bear
don't seek what you cannot eat
you will not be able be able to discern
the inevitable from tomorrow
daily days, we're only one step closer
nothing more, nothing less.
nothing ventured nothing gained
we're in the ship, sailing for tomorrow's sunset
the hope of it all
stands between the horizon and me
the sense of the air
cuts the skin of my flesh
a cold breeze it is
that chills to the bone
white flesh burning
burning into one, into none
we are who we are
steer us a new course to the end of the world

i still care, for the moment
i don't know why
but i just do
whatever you say or do
or make me feel
it's in the now
i can't promise you the future
i won't hold back the past
i want to see you get through this
i hope you see my mindless struggles
why i'm doing this for you
i haven't a clue
but maybe i want too much
and you're more than that
you're so much more than that
and i'm sorry as much as i want you to be free
i'm sorry i can't explain things
because i haven't got a clue

"i don't know why i like you" may05



this is a wasteland
this is a joy
to be around the epicentre of destruction
just when i reached out to touch
something so close 
and fleeting
don't leave those blue roses where they are
left of right, i'm waiting for you
and can you hear their voices
echoing within the chambers of your heart
do you feel them pulsating within
pumping and pushing
as it drives you back to life
feel the harsh air dive back in
choke on your dose of high life
choke on it, cough it out
the taste lingers in your senses
don't try to fight it out
but please take it back in
if they only seemed to love you
then they never seemed to care
and the vision that's blurred
obscures you all from my sight
i can't see no end 
nor the heavens on nigh
don't take it out on us
don't leave us out there in the lurch
i'll find you
and make it stop
and we can't promise you many things
just more lies that we struggle with
seems to me like we're all spaced out
waiting for the chrous of heaven to fill our souls
fill it to the brim
sip it at its peak

"a mountain, and a river" may10



i'm stuck
in the old skool and the new
feeling it rise up
watching them fall
filling me in
letting it out
striving for something that isn't there
accomplishing something that's given
creating all that's been said and done
i'll never find self
yours or mine
and i have to stop pleasing 
both you and me
i have to serve
all those broken words
things we'd never find
so different now that you're here
the same now that you aren't
i'm searching for the truth
all the things in your heart
and we wanna tear it apart, break it down, burn it to hell
because it's all there is to it
so it wont flow
it won't stop
and it won't run out
mortgage me
"creation past post" may12



there is a strange cold
a tearing thru my fingers
stiffened and darkened 
and i can't seem to see
the urgency of the hour
the lateness of timely intervention
this is cold and strange
bold lovely and reckless
as you allow me to draw on my darkest senses
the harshest blackest nights
seem to beckon as sunrise fades to black
the intensity of a flower's bloom
all the power in the world
creation looms as birth struggles
the absence in colour
sound and joy
distinction melancholy
nothing is as it seems or heard
can i do more should i do less
don't say the words that you don't mean
but irrational are we sometimes
protect yourself from me
i'm hoplessly surging hedfirst

strange noises in the night
