Daisy Chain 04:22
Daisy Chain I feel like a boy Since I found you in pieces These chains are all I have known I can only cling Know no other way to hold Dwarfed by insecurity Drowned out by your love Losing definition As you stand above Thin layer, a membrane, bound to you, daisy chain You are the crown around my skull

Gilded Shells on the attack my nigga climbed right back waste ten more years trying to get at that try to scale the platinum jail try to break myself out but it never fails looking like a banshee stuck like a tattoo the shit is beyond best baby, what we gonna do? make it to the morning maybe if with only knew golden shackles gilded shells you brought me here? i brought myself. i walked here on my own two legs now, let me be alone such brilliant chains to bind my bones this husk is all you asked for can't decide which love to mask more force me to the floor such gilded shells we hide inside so soft beneath, we try to lie my parts are platinum chained inside i've looked for you but i've been blind the empty space it can't be filled you try to move, it wont be willed evident no matter how skilled the empty shell you try to gild

Hipsterisms No. 2 My hipsterisms don't amount To being washed away and out And not to mask one's own pretension Just outside my comprehension? Every trait i try to feign Emblazoned bolder in your name With every fault that you reflect Aggrandize your own intellect "Write a song about it Write a fucking song about it" Evisceration all along Lead me down and lead me on Don't say a thing but feel it all Oh look what i see The path unfurls for me The primrose path, sweet like a peach I know myself, its out of reach Fading like an hourglass The dream it seems to swim right past A new I flicker on the screen Until the credits You'll watch me

Your Body, The Drug. I'm panting, shaking, drooling in addiction Now it seems your body is the drug Hold yourself close Dawn draws near The Guest and the host The line becomes all too clear What you want is chains upon you I just want you to ring me through All you want is lashes laid upon me I just want to continue You're asleep if you think i'm gonna lie back And watch you love me less and less and less Your asleep if you think I didn't know that In This platinum prison We've built around the Lust and indecision Unable to wake up To the faded focus To the azure view I have seemed to lose the locus Of my addiction to you

Your Hands Around My Throat Into the maw of codependency falling helplessly in after me the hinterland is gray shifting softly around us in the gizzard of our longing take a scissor to this lust The minotaur sniffs and kicks Hot sand into my eyes The prick of a pin Takes him by surprise His shell is abalone His hooves are brass and bronze His lust it leaves me lonely He wraps my corpse in gauze out of pink and into pearl i start to see your tail uncurl opalescent foam and ink a hole in us we start to sink I feel your grip it makes me hard all my dreams are coming true around my throat your hands will slip my complexion all gone blue Maze of love Will it ever be over? Drug down in delta Passion in clover confusing hunger for nourishment confused addiction with love lead to swamps like antelope alligator eyes will well abandon jetsam from the boat to work so hard to fuck your throat

Cartoonized 02:24
Cartoonized I've become cartoonized waiting lazy all my life and i've become a second wife i've been in sunder i've been wide i've never seen such handsome trust the blood is bad i feel harmonious please just hold me as i turn to dust
8.
Pinnate Behind the windows They are vista views With bright illusions we are drawn right up to But now i feel as though i am As light as a feathers can get Can't even scream loud enough to free myself from you Every time that we undress How it seems to make a mess You asked for nothing You got less You pressed it right up to my chest And we were only there for seconds
