Dirty Dream 02:54
dirty dream, remember five a.m., awaken losing me inside you it’s not love but I’m breathing hard Oh, another dirty dream another way to lose myself

Vivaldi 05:05
growing flaccid, I am not going soft pulling me all day, I do not feel robbed come five hundred thousand miles but I still rub you all the right ways rub my shaking is out of my hands nearer than last time to arrival my shaking is out of my hands nearer than last time to arrival

Mask 03:44
too slow my time to be stolen by another too lean my frame to be stretched out by hunger too good a price to be broken by a glass too long a love to have forgotten a past too lovely a face to broken by a mirror two hands apart to be joined by fear two steps forward to becoming three who steps forward in believing me? I don’t want to wear a mask anymore

Leaving 03:02
firecracker in late July split apart to a different sky I still feel the flame as you jet to a different place leaving time without cracking you leaving time forgot how to drape an arm across the back to a cold shoulder that feel of something warm disappears when I try to hold her leaving time without cracking you leaving time

you were scrolling through facts on a friday night one hand pointed as you prophesied another victory comes with another drink stroke me again i’ll tell you what to think you’re an ignorant fuck and your back is bending crossing another one out i count another lemming i’ve read books on power and the art of war i give looks that cower you on my floor the greatest pain is to be in your presence i cannot plug my ears i suffer another vengeance scorn on everyone you see scorn on everyone you see so fucked full of lies remember this while drinking from the trough of a tyrant’s piss i was right before you were wrong get on your knees where you belong now i have you at my feet reciting everything i say your tongue sounding so sweet i’m coming to the news from today you were out of my sight when i screamed your name reciting everything i say practice cleaning my feet with dying hair rocking me gently in my chair repeat i have stockpiled for the flood and I’ll swallow every last drop now i have you at my feet reciting everything i say your tongue sounding so sweet i’m coming to the news from today hear my words, abandon fist drinking from the trough of a tyrant’s piss hear my words, abandon fist drinking from the trough of a tyrant’s piss

Stab 04:36
nightsurfing, swallowed by an old wave treading to you but I’ll keep on kicking up yesterday keep on making the same waves why the strange fixation, while the knife pricks me oh, but I love life so I’ll keep on twisting what you say keep on twisting your blade you stab, I’ll twist the knife
