Life in Pink
04:08
|

I feel the years unfold
I watch them turn astringent and old
I'm hunted by a cruel aloneness
Swallowing me whole
I float to warm extremes
That come to me in fiery dreams of
Impossible love
A life in pink
I watch the roses bleed
My symbols of survival seize me
I hold onto them for one more night
I'm disembodied, a woman forever
Watch the years invert and turn to rain

Dogwood Winter

Milliseconds from oblivion
In the hour of disarray
A chasmic bliss, a single
Cycloptic impossible eye
Staring from the void
With livid excitement
A sense of weightlessness
Freezing to death in an
Abandoned womb
A helpless cocoon, for an
Agonizing metamorphosis
A straight jacket made from identity
One furious eye, caged in flesh
Twitching free unsuccessfully
A painful fissure in a cancerous tissue
A filthy colossus, a bleachmonger
And a burst of foul gas erupting from an open wound
Watched, Stalked, Objectified, Despoiled

Strung out on searing adolescent pains
Could not hold back what I had to contain
From years in my immaculate display
Now here I am still learning not to wait
In some shadow back from when I wasn't there
In some memory from nights that never were
In a body, in a mirror I was
Dying, fading
I was on my way out of that self when
Fevered tears drowned her out
Her eyes were wet, her face was warm
When she stumbled off to oblivion
Her soul collapsed, she fell to earth
She found herself in dresses and in pearls
Our eyes were wet, our faces warm
When we stumbled out to oblivion
Our souls collapsed, I fell to earth
I found myself in dresses and in pearls

Den of Thieves
03:32
|
|||
Calluses peel off in heapings
Soured blood expelled and seeping
The thief among the graves is crawling to its shadow
The cowards sacrament, penance, bloody sorrow
Spirit in flames
We'll die afraid
The blister still persists
Without a host to borrow

Stereo Field

Formless and happy and free
Like raindrops coming down across my stereo field
And someday we’ll conquer our pain
We’ll put our hearts together to get back all the things that we lost
In time before our world is put to flames
And everyone we’ve ever known is turning away
I was alone on a stage
No relief from the hundreds of eyes
I tried to give you my all
I tried to sing you an undying song
Then I was lost in you
The music turned untrue
The words all lost their weight
There’s nothing I could say
Formless and happy and free
When racing energy will fasten you and me
And lines formed by skin ends and bone
Succumb to an entropy and ghost away
Me and you
Androgynous and beautiful and free
And everyone we’ve ever known is living through us

Fairy Ring

Floating fragments of our minds
Ejected off into asymptotal obscurity
Your blood flows through me like silence
My body flows through you like a secret
A curtain of flesh surrounds like a priestess
Your cries reverberate past the gate
Of the hospital ward
Into the yard where early signs of spring
Join us in a dance macabre
I became the mandrake
The child of a thousand-armed golem
Fly blown and burning
Luminosity stolen
You saw your decomposing dopplegänger down by the pond
Protruse limbs sewn on with elytra
Contracting, jerking, uncanny and arbitrary
A soul trapped in an unfamiliar husk
We danced with sulphurized hearts
On cursed soil
Invisible to the mortal world

Twist
02:15
|

Lovers at last
Return to the past
And hold each other closer
Impulses fire in the night
Piercing and warm and bright
Comfortable at last
Twist into one
Send it back to me
Open up and be set free
Going far and wide
Just to want you there with me

It speaks, sends grief to the source
The voice of a mislaid mind
The chest of a broken heart
Gashed open, foaming white
Shrinking away to a torturous size
Pulled far into the open sea
She loses her grip, she is far beyond free
Skinless and structureless she just bleeds
Somewhere I know she is still me

Eudaimonia
05:29

When the night dissolves into ashes
Cascading down on the lake
Then the moon will descend into your hand
At the creaking sigh of day's break
You'll gently toss it in your palms
And roll it around in the mud
As all the trees melt into air
And the sun swells up with blood
You'll collapse, in shock, falling towards me
When cracks start to form in the crust
And magma will burst through the surface
And those we've condemned to dust
They'll start to spiral upwards
Taking aim for the sky
As one sun is cast down
And a new one starts to rise
The lava gathers at our feet
As the world is put to rights

Rapture
04:58
|

A sleeping Saxon walks towards the urn
The sound passes, thunderous and old
To call light into the deep
It turns its spirit for the capture
Heed the babies born asleep
A final day has risen on the town
The bloody sight of horses falling down
Deafening sound of angels crying out
My family prays for mercy on their house
When I look into the eyes of my sister, my youngest friend
I see the love that she holds within
And she'll always have as she's growing up
In the days that I'm not there
I lost my way
Fell far out of bounds
You are all
Sorely loved and missed
