chain me up and push me In
the quiet grew too loud again
tragic numbers pouring over
you and me forever
thugs are all were called today
chemical rush for us today
pigs are taking names today
this shroud will throw your life away
this seething snake can clearly see me
Superimposed!
over the strange violence on TVs
chain us up and push us In
we don't like to think again
tragic numbers pouring over
you and me forever
floodgates washed away today
nature’s taking us today
chemical rush for us today
this shroud will throw your life away
the seething snake lies in waiting
Coiling slow!
for the same labored breathing
protest under searing heat
absent rest for tired children
heavy coughs in crowded streets
seething snake come back again
scar into our skin for smut!
please don’t reach for what removes you
heaving lungs in poison fog
bloodshot ask for any water
shallow sleep for tired dogs
seething snake come back again
scar into our skin for smut!
take it for the gospel choir

automated senses
don't think, don't think, don't think
senseless dream state peasant
won’t look, won’t look, won’t look
fallen from grace of God,
self is such a weight.
Almost impossible to shake
Ripped from warmth of one
The void is taking shape
Calling out my name
Fallen hungry polyp
Can’t know, can't know, can't know
Tiny selfish reason
Hoping, hoping, hoping
to see some light without
the fragile hollow shell
within, without, between
I know nothing at all
Except a will and wants
a simple-minded haunt
parasite
hiding from the light
that hurts too much to see

sharing is caring

jealousy holds our lovers
to prisons over lust
my mind confined our image
to contracts over love
like guilt over money
and anguish over trust
possession leads to weakness
and weakness into rust
cats will play with prey
and torture for their fun
for comfort and for pleasure
and power over one
time and time and time and time again I writhe
the pit inside serves to remind
that I can care and I can share and It can hurt and it can also give us life
but jealousy holds power over me
and if we truly have trust and belief in the love that we hold
trying to share doesn't seem so scary anymore
although I can't kill the seed of the strong bitter fruit inside
its ugly gnarled tree will thrive off of me no more

a door, a lock, a key, and then
a twist away from seeing the light of day
the line in the sand, the beginning and the end
of their hopes and their dreams to walk on their own four feet
on the soil of the earth
Sold!
to the loving family
Sold!
to the lonely soul
and i'm weak at the knees, and their chomping at the bit
you must dream of being free, you could almost, almost taste it
and the sun seems so free and the breeze smells of grass
you might never feel its heat, forced to watch seasons pass
for the comfort of another, your life's lived behind doors, behind glass
Sold!
to the aging heart
Sold!
to the lonely soul

fix the sink, build a bridge, find yourself
a slice of life to pass the time
get a job, get some help, get your life back
you can watch it all
And you won't see at all
what its like
the sun on the cold peak
the warmth in your bones
run in the street, run outta cash, run off a cliff
a slice of life to pass the time
learn the ropes, learn your rights and write some answers
you can watch it all
you won't know at all
passing out
a dense crowd in the heat
a cold sense of defeat
Hungry pangs
a year on the throne
a cold night on your own
the screen doesn't speak to it all

you find some peace in my arms
I hope the walls hold their weight
love fades in the fall
like some weak dying flame
let me carry your weight
place your heart in my hands
and thrash wildly around
pull you out of the ground
raise your body up and hold it there
praise you and your company
praise my saint, compassionate and fair
praise your darkest shadows
praise your innermost harrowing fears
consume my body, soul, and spirit
you find some peace in my heart
we'll watch the walls crumble down
love dies in the fall
like some small fading sound
let me carry your weight
place your heart in my hands
and thrash wildly around
i'll forget what is mine
i'll forget what is mine

the greedy interests consuming all the helpless and using
the people's labor and blood and sweat and tears for profits
our lives, to them, are nothing but product and mileage
a trillion point five for wall street, twelve hundred for silence
Our racist nation is holding its people hostage
with state sponsored murders and racial violence
We all can see the flames
We fall absolved of blame(shame)
the film happens to us!
don't tear your eyes
away!
