my intuition says to gather some and leave the rest behind
disintegrate what's left alone
in time togetherness reveals itself a hapless trend and then
with only solitude in mind
I take the best parts of your heart and put them in my bag
reserving several supplements for sacraments inside
when greeted with adept applause you never broke your stride
my conscience isn't clean, it's just another place to hide
another father nuther holy ghost it can't be all that bad
I pray you don't lose sight of me
if you're the bearer of the book you'd better find some good advice
and get yourself to Beverly
a naked fertile article you just can't get enough
resounding reservations quelled by affirmation sluts
I dreamed of something different but it never came to light
my conscience isn't clean it's just another place to hide

Skeleton Key

sometimes it takes a day or two
sometimes I go for several weeks
til I confess to you
just what's been eating me
but this times different
a certain sickness
brews an urgency now
I'm so convinced that
my opposition's
merely selling me out
all you need is a book
I have come to know
present application has revealed itself a skeleton key
command of one's toolkit supersedes possessions lush and princely

Bloody Mary
02:38
|

count all the time it takes
tally the seconds offering
is this a sacrifice?
your folded little hands
flanking the doubt that swallowed me
this mirror cannot lie
you been thinking bout this all the time
bloody mary called you back the other night
all the times you spoke her name
screaming those words all in vain

it takes a lot of luck to deal with you
thank god the conversations
sometimes make me feel like I'm alone
cuz to an outstretched ear you might appear
to call my lungs to questions
carve another scratch right in the wall
on that day you called your mother on the phone
and said you're feeling right as rain
well just last night we heard you singing in your sleep
if the bells were ringing
you might've drowned them out

The Jumps

stay in the cellar but don't close the door
play with the light switches sit on the floor all day
mission reconnaissance gather intelligence
say goodnight
when you come over things just seem alright
so I'll wait
and then I'll go out back
I'll go exactly where you wanted me to be
peace of mind was offered graciously
is it true?
do these things bother you?
do you believe that when you die you'll be the ghost?
I hope that when we die we'll both be ghosts
