ars moriendi 03:20
(the art of dying) take it all from me until i fall to my feet in time we will bleed now i’m done, can’t you see since you been round i don’t feel the blade as it goes in don’t wear your blood blouse we don’t want you lord, i don’t know how to hold you
2.
con 03:19
you will pack your bags & you will learn how to dance with the devils’ wind as they pass my conscience is all i own cross your heart, hope to die my conscience is all i own my part was blind & you sold it cheap & my body kind you damaged it light up the night where the sermons creep into your throat
3.
dead honey 04:11
cold blood / dead honey i was your drive thru pick up, fuck up too many of you to count hide /// pull out, brute bind me with wool skin me so i don’t feel it i don’t feel i don’t feel
4.
bone section 03:50
my exit bag is full & i will take the path that quietly lies eats you from the inside out never quite, never quite close enough take me to your scream cave i will now react & let the crows circle where are you tonight my love meet me in the bone section a supermarket morgue sleaze whore it’ll be a memory, you’ll feel it all take me to your scream cave i will now react & let the dust settle will you haunt someone else if i do nothing? (leave it to the night) you brute you psychopath you liar / golden boy
5.
kindness 05:09
in time i will take you home in the fire that is where you’ll find your bones go on, make the same mistakes if i am kind death will take me home so let the hounds out let them feast on my shaking bones go on, let me go to waste
6.
i do not want to wake the voices / they have only just begun to speak before the mouth of the ocean / and from death’s damp corridor / i will make a bed of you / i only wanted to be pure / free of mortal connotation / i wanted the dull lull / fade to grey / but the living bring me sense in primary colour / so watch as i make a bed of you / let it wreck the body / turn the lung to blue commotion / (bring me sleep) / the gap begins to leave me in between / i woo the tomb i’m under / woo the tomb i’m under over it / let all hell break loose open the vein / take the medicine / turn around / your ticket panic / exploding or frozen / make a casket of their friends / cut me open let them in / gouge out the eye of mourning with the sun’s fingers
7.
devil swim 06:00
do what the voices say do what the voices tell you to do don’t come around my way you know they’re always waiting for you to give it up, be done with your kindness hold your tongue, you’re not like us i could drink until the devil swim and well oh well i just might i could drink up, i could let you in i could lose my only mind so stay out of my way cause maybe i’ll be colder with you i do what the voices say because i know they’re coming from you so give it up, it’s done, this is a blindness bite your tongue, try to deny this i could drink until the devil swim and well oh well i just might i could drink up, i could let you in i could lose my only mind cry wolf cry wolf / i won’t blame you cry wolf /// i won’t blame you /
