Candlestick
04:01
|

tide is rising
dry land drowning
flame is crawling
thin ice crying
candlestick is melting down
we won’t hurt you
if we could just do things to
the sparkle in your eye
it threatens all of us
in time it threatens all of us
you might feel a little pinch
with each passing day
paintbrush stuck in candlestick
mind in disarray
it’s not time
not yet time to reflect
you might lose the quiet gifts
of each rainy day
painting life with enamel
mindless, so opaque
it’s not time
not yet time to move on
doesn’t it seem cold

Malaise
03:30
|

why won’t anybody see this honestly
beat the odds and dust turns to anatomy
I will turn to see it but not turn today
a feeling of malaise will find me anyway
can see it now, it’s got to have
some meaning that I haven’t found
doesn’t anybody find it strange
nothing is ideal enough to change
I’m told of how there’s got to be some meaning that I haven’t found
I see that clearly but may never understand
can see it now there’s got to be
some meaning that I haven’t found
I’m told of how there’s got to be
some meaning that I haven’t found

Belladonna
03:03
|
|||
belladonna gazes towards me
eyes coming to life
scenery grows out of focus
five years til she’s blind
lovely but not good for us
laying in sewn silk gowns
can’t convince this beating heart to
breathe and just slow down
nothing I’d rather do
nowhere I’d rather be
no other option
but to suffocate, you see

Incidence
03:02
|
|||
waking up to taste
unfamiliar speech
in the strangest place
bound by lock and key
someone’s banging down the door
and chasing after me
while my head is aching
from the same walls that I need
on the higher ground
surely headed down
mind is cutting out
held at needlepoint
wondering if meaning is
no more than incidence
I’m wondering if the meaning is
no more than incidence
