Smile (For Walt Whitman)

sunshine, break through your cloud. it's all i need to see.
this sadness is tearing a hole through my heart.
the fever running through your spine - in your hands - and in mine

smile
it's better that way
smile, anyway

 question every word you have ever said
pull away the veil from your face
and your life will be the greatest poem I will ever read
pull away the veil from your face

 smile
 it's better that way
smile, anyway

Doomsday Machine

You brought me doom
as your cigarette came to the end of its fuse
I know I said I wanna inhale you, like a plume
Then I left mushroom clouds to stand as dunes
So few

You brought me doom
At least you attempted to
I'm blinded by a light that was blocked out by you
In an indigo room.
Enough space to upset the childhood colors in you.
Another view

I locked my room
And went for a hike where the wild summer grew
Pebbles flowing, hands are passing through
I suppressed my moral compass and the souls of my shoes
I'm one with you

It's almost done
Your doomsday machine created for one
I step inside, its going to be fun
To understand just how this thing is run
You're scum.

When they write about you
they will say you were confused
But we will see through
And you will be refused.

Amelie

the birthday girl is just like you and me
she's spreading the difference into the sea
gotta find a way to be
like Amelie

the distance grows between what we see
what we know, understand and believe
it's the sound of a thousand tragedies
Amelie
I can't believe it
Amelie

fading time bright and verbose
smacks the night, takes it away from the ghosts
this fleeting silence says it the most
eloquently
Amelie
I can't believe it, Amelie
listen to me, Amelie

Amelie's coming fast and hard
we couldn't see it from afar
when she had to part
she can't hear us call her name
cannot see our friendly wave
in the deepest ocean of
phantasmic love

It isn't real
It was never real at all
Never real

Kill Your Parents (Satanic Song)

kill your parents, quit your job
I think it's time we had a talk
ohh, listening to this Satanic song

burn your presents, fuck this holiday
Jesus Christ never was a fan anyway

enjoy the view from the outside looking in
enjoy the view - it will never happen to you again

once - once in your life
one - one at a time

stay so incensed, keep your fog
but it's time we had a talk
ohh, listening to this Satanic song

just promise you'll keep their thoughts in mind
and never think it makes you divine

I want to kill your parents

Dark Star Death Angel

nothing exists, nothing fades, nothing changes
all is here, now, forevermore
reaching out, splitting atoms, killing stars
all shattered

take my hand dark star death angel
fall into space

one more sound, one more thought, one more fracture
holding on but drifting off
feel my rock going soft, turned to dust
my own Saturn

kill them all my dear
make everything blank
not a spec of life should ever escape you

hear me now, I am silent, you are loud
empty words heard nevermore
reaching out across chasms ever far
nothing matters
all shattered
my own Saturn

take my hand dark star death angel
fall into space

Taxi Song

i should have gone to the city, i should have taken it for a fact
i could have taken a taxi - no reason to come back
now a storm is coming and i've locked myself out of the house
beating on the windows expecting a reply back

when things work out for me, they dont for my art
when things work out for me, i stay locked in my heart

no one came to the party, and i knew it all along
light the fire, breath in - smoke and sparks and scream and shout
are they in their apartments writing the same damn song?
 and if we close our doors how can it ever get out?

when things work out for me, they dont for my art
when things work out for me, i stay locked in my heart
when things work out for me, they only work out in part
when things work out for me, i stay locked in my heart

dont call it peace
unless you want a piece of it
dont call me that please
unless you can turn your face from it

 dont call it peace, dont call it peace

Abyss

deep blue sea is sinking me
the night air is comforting

thoughts stumble out of me
they all trip and fall

cause the nightmares only happen in the day
i cant fix it - my mind's been baited

the sun rises in my head
as the moon shines on my bed

dreams swimming in my mind
they all float away

caues the nightmares only happen in the day
i cant fix it - my mind's been baited
this is it, there is nothing more
so welcome to the abyss
