Feel Free To Check Out My Photography While You Are Here!
I usually update it once a day.
01 - Vicarious Eye on the tv 'cause tragedy thrills me
whatever flavor it happens to be
like. . .
"killed by the husband"
"drowned by the ocean"
"shot by his own son"
"she used a poison in his tea
and kissed him goodbye"
it's my kind of story
it's no fun 'til someone dies
don't look me at like i am a monster
frown out your one face
but with the other stare like a junkie into the tv
stare like a zombie while the mother holds her child
watches him die
hands to the sky
crying "why, oh why?"
'cause i need to watch things die (from a distance)
vicariously, i live while the whole world dies
you all need it too, don't lie
why can't we just admit it?
we won't give pause until the blood is flowing
neither the brave nor bold will write us the story so
we won't give pause until the blood is flowing
i need to watch things die (from a good safe distance)
vicariously, i live while the whole world dies
you all feel the same so
why can't we just admit it?
blood like rain falling down
drawn by grave and ground
part vampire
part warrior
carnivore and voyeur
stare at the transmittal
sing to the death rattle
credulous at best is your desire to
believe in angels in the hearts of men
pull your head on out your hand please
and give a listen
i shouldn't have to say it all again
the universe is hostile, so impersonal
devour to survive, so it is, so it's always been
we all feed on tragedy (it's like blood to a vampire)
vicariously, i live while the whole world dies
much better you than i. . .
02 - JambiHere from the king’s mountain view
Here from the wild dream come true
Feast like a sultan, I do
On treasures and flesh never few
But I
I would
Wish it
All, away
If I
Though I’d
Lose you
Just one day
The devil and his has me down
In love with the dark side I’ve found
Dabbling all the way down
Up to my neck soon to drown
But you changed that all for me
Lifted me up turn me round
So I
I
I
I
I would
I would
I would
Wish
This
All
Away
Prayed like a martyr dusk to dawn
Beg like a hooker all night long
Shout to the devil with my song
And got what I wanted all along
But I
And I would
If I could
I would
Wish it away
Wish it away
Wish it all away
Wanna wish it all away
No pressure could hold sway
Or just a fine line
Kneeling away, my sinner
So if I could I’d wish it all away
If I thought tomorrow, they’d take you away
You’re my piece of mind, my own
I said I’m just trying to hold on
One more day
Damn my eyes
Damn my eyes
Damn my eyes, how they should compromise
All hope from what you need to find me
Then I might as well be gone
Shine on forever
Shine on benevolent son
Shine down upon the broken
Shine on ‘til the two become one
Shine on forever
Shine on benevolent son
Shine down upon the severed
Shine on ‘til the two become one
Divide, I’m withering away
Divide, I'm withering away
Shine down upon the many, light our way
Benevolent son
Breathe in union
So as one survive
another day and season
[?] your poison
Silently, just stay out of my way
03 - Wings for Marie (pt 1) You believed
You believed in moments not conceived
You believed in me
A passionate spirit
Uncompromise
Without us in your heart
A light in your eyes that
Ends all lies
Vacant, broken
Fell at the hands of
Those moments that I wouldn’t see
Cause you, who faithfully served,
What have I done to be a son to an angel
What have I done to be worthy
Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescence
Difficult to see with this light
Please forgive this selfish question, but
What am I to say to all these ghouls tonight
She never told a lie
Well might of told a lie
But never lived one
Didn’t have a life
Didn’t have a life
But surely saved one
Alright, now it’s time for us to let you go
04 - 10,000 Days (Wings for Marie pt 2) listen to the tales and romanticise
how we follow the path of the hero
boast about the day when the rivers overrun
how we rise to the height of our halo
listen to the tales as we all rationalise
our way into the arms of the savior
feigning all the trials and the tribulations
none of us have actually been there
not like you
ignorant fibbers in the congregation
gather around spewing sympathy
spare me
none of them can even hold a candle up to you
blinded by choices hypocrites won't seek
but enough about the collective judas.
who could deny you were the one who illuminated
your little piece of the divine
this little light of mine
the gift you passed onto me
i'll let it shine
to guide you safely on your way
your way home
what are they going to do when the lights go down
without you guide them home to zion
what are they going to do when the river is overrun
other than tremble incessantly
high as a wave but i'll rise out up on the ground
you are a light, and a wave, that they will only read about
i only pray, heaven knows when to lift you out
ten thousand days in the fire is long enough
you're going home
you're the only one who can hold your head up high
shake your fist at the gates saying:
i have come home now
fetch me the spirit
the son, and the father
tell them their pillar of faith has ascended
it's time now, my time now
give me my, give me my, wings
give me my
give me my wings
you are a light, a wave
that they will only read about
Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance
Burden of proof tossed upon non-believers.
You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence,
Judith Marie, unconditional one
daylight dims leaving
cold flouresence
difficult to see you in this light
please forgive this bold suggestion
should you see your maker's face tonight
look him in the eye
look him in the eye, and tell him
"i never lived a lie, never took a life
but surely saved one, hallelujah
it's time for you to bring me home
05 - The PotWho are you to wave your finger?
You must've been out your head.
Eyehole deep in muddy waters.
You practically raised the dead.
Rob the grave to snow the cradle,
Then burn the evidence down.
Soapbox house of cards and glass so
Don’t go tossing your stones around
You must've been high.
You must've been high.
You must've been.
Foot in mouth and head up ass
So what ya talking ‘bout?
Difficult to dance round this one
'Till you pull it out, boy.
You must've been so high.
You must've been so high.
Steal, borrow, reaper save your shady inference.
Kangaroo done hung the juror with the innocent.
Now you're weepin' shades of chosen indigo,
got lemon juice up in your... eye, eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle
You must've been high, high.
Who are you to wave your finger? So full of it.
Eyeballs deep in muddy waters, fucking hypocrite.
Liar, lawyer, mirror show me what’s the difference?
Kangaroo done hung the guilty with the innocent.
Now you're weepin' shades of [chosen indigo],
got lemon juice up in your... eye, eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle
You must've been…
So who are you to wave your finger?
Who are you to wave your fatty fingers at me?
You must have been out your mind.
Weeping [shades of chosen indigo]
Trapped without a reason.
Weeping [shades of chosen indigo]
Liar, lawyer, mirror for you,
What’s the difference?
Kangaroo be stoned, hes guilty as the government.
now you're [weepin' shades of chosen indigo],
got lemon juice up in your... eye, eye
When you pissed all over my black kettle
You must've been high.
High.
Eyeballs deep in bloody waters.
Elbows deep in muddy waters,
Catch up with lies.
You must have been out your mind.

08 - Rosetta Stoned
alrighty then
picture this if you will
10 to 2 AM
and actually eating up an old box of Krispy Kremes
and my need-to-know potion.
I was just outside Area 51
contemplating the whole “chosen people” thing
when a flaming stealth banana split the sky like, wide open.
I never expected to see it in a place like this.
I do believe I spilled a diamond sundae
or something wet on my Birkenstocks
and [you’re yelping]
Holy fucking shit
then the x-file beings who were like
some kind of blue-grey [Jackie Chan]
with Isabella Rossellini lips and breath that reeked
[They’re wicked-shot terrorists all by making the sound]
abananadabanana so when I opened up my bug eyes, my gaping jaw and my sweaty lower and upper lip
and all I could think was
I hope that my partner here doesn’t notice
that I pissed my fucking pants
So alive in this way
Like an apparition
you have me crying out
fuck me
It’s got to be
dead head
Chemistry
The blotter got
On top of me
got me seeing
E mother-fucking T
and after calming me down with some orange slices
and some fetal spooning
the ET revealed to me his singular purpose
he said you are the chosen one
the one who’ll deliver the message
a message of hope for those who chose to hear it
and a warning for those who do not
me, the chosen one, they chose me
and I didn’t graduate from fucking’ high school
You had better...
You had better...
You had better...
You had better listen
when he looked right through me
with somniferous almond eyes
don’t even know what that means
must remember to write it down
This is so real
Like the time they floated away
See, my heart is pounding
Cause this shit never happens to me
I can’t breathe right now
it was so real
like I woke up in Wonderland
all sort of terrifying
I don’t want to be all alone
when I tell the story
and can anyone tell me why
It was a repeat experience
will I ever be coming down
this is so real
finally it’s my lucky day
see my heart is racing
cause this shit never happens to me
I can’t breathe right now
You believe me don’t you
Please believe what I just said
See they’re telling the truth
And this wasn’t all in my head
See they took me by the hand
and invited me right in
then they showed me something
I don’t even know where to begin
Strapped down my bed
feet cold, eyes red
I’m out my head
am I alive am I dead
can’t remember what they said
god damn shit the bed
hey hey
Overwhelmed as one would be placed in my position
such a heavy burden now to be the one
Born to (bear and read to) all the details of our ending
to write it down for all the world to see
but I forgot my pen shit the bed again
typical
strapped down to my bed
feet cold and eyes red
I’m out of my head
am I alive am I dead
Sunkist and Sudafed
Gyroscopes and infrared
won’t help the brain dead
can’t remember what they said
don't know, oh no
god damn shit the bed
09 - Intension
pure as we begin
pure as we come in
pure as we begin
pure by will alone
pure as we begin
here we have a stone
gather, place, erase, so
shelter turned to home
pure as we begin
here we have a stone
throw to stay the stranger
swore to crush his bones
move by will alone
spark becomes a flame
flame becomes a fire
light the way or warm this
hope we occupy
spark becomes a flame
flame becomes a fire
forge a blade to slay the stranger
take whatever we desire
move by will alone
pure as we begin
pure as we begin
move by will alone
leave as we came in
pure as light, return to one
move by will alone
move by will alone
10 - Right in Two
Angels on the sideline,
Puzzled and amused.
Why did Father give these humans free will?
Now they’re all confused.
Don’t these talking monkeys know that Eden has enough to go around?
Plenty in this holy garden, silly old monkeys,
Where there’s one you're bound to divide it
Right in two
Angels on the sideline
Baffled and confused
Father blessed them all with reason.
And this is what they choose.
Monkey killing monkey killing monkey over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys give them thumbs,
they forge a blade, and where there's one they're bound to divide it
Right in two.
Right in two.
Monkey killing monkey killing monkey over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys give them thumbs, they make a club
and beat their brother down.
How they survive so misguided is a mystery.
Repugnant is a Creature who would squander the ability
To lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here
Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two
Fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky.
Fight over life, over blood, over prayer, over head and light.
Fight over love, over sun, over another.
Fight...
Angels on the sideline again
Been so long with patience and reason
Angels on the sideline again
Wondering when this tug of war will end
Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two
Right in two
