lyrics

Keep the cup straight
when you are Plucked by the shadow
Here at the shadow’s ball

See how the rot is built
By the pinch of beginnings
No this is not our fault

Let me go
This food is so strange
And I am not hungry
I will eat well when the grave is primed

Let me go
Won’t u let me speak plainly
And deny the birth process
And the stench of the finite?

Don’t be stupid
Look right here where the skin fails
And know what the failing hails

Before you Write a song
Predicated on the other
Know just what the other entails

Let me go
Don’t u draw me again
With the hands of your exes
I am not just like 2 + 2

Let me go
All these plots are such pelf
To the undecided
Who know well where the crown is juiced

Hey now u hungry boy
Don’t u bite off such a doozy
Without the ground of a wound

Am I just a question
To be plated like a pheasant
Don’t you skip my projections too soon

Let me go
This narrative’s so thin
And This swim is no kid stuff
Are u not tired of malingering

Let me go
Take a look at my beast
It is no subtle subject
And recognizes no queen or king

I wrote this song when I was on a tour of Ireland in my dreams with frank hurricane. I had forgotten all my material and had to make up a summary or my intentions on the spot and this is what happened. I had another dream around then with frank in it where he was helping me pack my parents stuff in the trunk of their car. They were going on a long journey and frank was really excited for them.
