i can't stand this
standing in
what's all this mess
where have you been
to interpret
out of control
last time i checked
there were no levers to pull
i stopped shaking
once in position
i become something else
but just in relation
don't mind the people outside
they chose that path for their lives
pull the cloth down to your chin
such a good feeling to be in
and i can't respect
any logic
if it's not what we found
it can't exist

Rage

he talks you down the best
and in a crowd you could be so lonely
try and get some rest
and don't take that shit from anybody
they're not worth your time
if they can't commit to listening
rage you listen so well
but now it's your turn to say something
speak up, speak now
don't let him drown you out

Lego my Ego

the futility of your design
sprits taken from another’s mind
palm on palm
did we fall from the same garden
the crops are spoiled
can you tell the good
from the bad
if you don’t use the funnel
the filter will break
and love is a idea
too easy to delineate
for you
it’s so easy to relax
when friends encourage your path
chosen on a whim
open to your closed mind
in love with your confines
i know about your prison
locked on the outside, and within
don’t leave me alone
another trait assembled
to make outside resemble
your bedroom
your common sense isn’t universal
and nature is much more
than what’s outside
open to your closed mind
in love with your confines
i know about your prison
locked on the outside, and within
wanted just one more day
to square all my thoughts away
file down and criticize
staring forward, side by side

senses enflamed and burnt out
we see fireworks, people about
packed together in your mind
every look, eclipsing blind
no, joy, please stay
it’s not just me that will fade away
fingers run bloody through dreamy haze
tending sheep, so i say
no, joy, don’t wake
at all, sleep late
in the other state
real, imagined and made
fine thin grass points to your brow
filing down clouds, what’s left is doubt
all you absorb makes a callus grow
around you’re eyelids, ears and nose
but joy, in here, you’re never left out
buses are on time, time’s a clown
tricks performed, to entertain
if you ask, i’ll say again
No Joy, don’t wake
at all, sleep late
in the, other state
real, imagined and made
No Joy
at all
in the
real.

Spring
05:12

born brothers bothers
birth masks death passive aggressive
sew stitch patch fix
but all red already worn
out try we try we find
it so why is it so
hard to be to say
to play to be in a room.
oh my god
oh my god
oh my god
born rot
birthed old
grow up spring
has come again
stuck stuck in a
loop fear what
can we make
us four what can we design
it’s a sign a
weed grows
fast faster than our
crop cropped out
of the sketch
split in into quarters
oh my god
oh my god
oh my god
born rot
birthed old
start again,
do better
something could happen,
it almost worked before,
we just have to try harder
we can make it work,
it almost worked before,
double up our efforts,
the cycle has ended,
it almost worked before,
we just have to try harder
start again
