Strange feeling in your little guts, isn’t there?
Homesick wandering where no one else would dare
In your eyes you are divine
That nasty thing spied you skipping stones across the water
Licking its horsey lips for it had been starved for many days
Chubby little diver
Splashing through the water
I have nothing left to slip into for my final days
Taxidermy halo, intestines
Stuffed like a rat in a drainage pipe through an odd hole in the shallows
What a queer way to die
As your sweet blue eyes turn white
And you glide into the light
Thankfully they scooped you up from this otherworldly forest floor
Above the dirt pits what a sad state, prance for us all
They watch you eating
What a sad fuck
Clap for us sing for us cry for us beg for us
Eat for us puke for us dance for us!
Chubby little diver
Splashing through the water
You can frown and howl in misery it makes no difference
There’s no soul for miles to carry that weight for you
So just fake that star smile and suck it up
Chubby little diver
Splashing through the water
You turn your sad eyes toward two headless men cursing your name
It seems someone took the words from your mouth with a fishing hook
You can frown and howl in misery, it makes no difference
You turn your sad eyes toward two headless men cursing your name
It seems someone took the words from your mouth with a fishing hook
You were better off as a mermaid anyhow
You poor thing
Grey skinned swimming
Here in the drowning circus everyone has a pound of flesh
[Outro]

Your noose is the handle I gyrate upon
Twisting constricting
Aimless, wandering, shapeless thing
I want to see the pink of your beautiful insides red

Suckle the nerves
undeserved
slice a nerve
so reserved
"you long for defenestration don't you? portly chandelier"
you'll know well soon enough, duty is more than photographs white knuckled in the mud…
Kinda like it in the arms of a blown out chest
kinda wish you could live in here
Kinda like it in the frills of a worn out dress
kinda wish you could die in here
Red gold and moldy, i hope your stance was worth a life
coulda been a dancer, not a swimmer, now simmer, boy.
Kinda like it in the arms of a blown out chest
kinda wish you could live in here
Kinda like it in the frills of a worn out dress
kinda wish you could die in here
Kinda like it in the arms of a sewn up dress
suckle the nerves
undeserved
so reserved.

Do you have a plan to end it all?
Desecrate my own body
Die
One tear shed as you bleed from the wrist
You lie bloodless, you are worthless

O, you bastard
survived the culling
Unable to motion, muscle rattle, skin across bone
All blackened, optimism’s a tumor
Beckoning sleep toward
Rupturing cyst of the heart
Curse you
Evacuate the reservoir
Dry the wound
Embracing nothing
Beg no more
Marrow dissected from the bone
The seed’s bearer bore a curse
Cut the bosom to stomp out nourishment
Curse you
Evacuate the reservoir
Dry the wound
Embracing nothing
Beg no more
Stare upon this blossoming flower
The smell of iron in the lungs
Cry
Scream
Beg
I curse thee
I curse thee
With this last breath through rotting, dying teeth
Spit and blood, a curse for the victim, the father, and the liar
This curse made flesh
Rain down suffering
My sire, we’ll ascend in red
Drink this bowl of bad fortune
Spite and spit upon
This curse becoming yours
Trading agony
Cry and fill this bowl with tears
Begging for release
Take the edge
There’s always an exit there
Shoving the face to the stone
The seeds layers ripped away
To Nurture the barbs with the tongue
Learn to satisfy the agony
Marrow dissected from the bone
The seeds bearer bore a curse
Marrow dissected from the bone
The seeds bearer bore a curse
Marrow dissected from the bone
The seeds bearer bore a curse
To cut the bossom and stomp out nourishment

This house was built from the ceiling to the floor
torn apart from the inside out
Keep it in
faster than ever before...
He got the god, the sin, the god
the light, pooled it in
collapses, rewrites
as the atom smashes await the transfiguration, encircling psychosis
hideaway until the disconnect and reconnecting of our eternal auras
see them dim, the light pulled in, becoming one
diffusing the catalyst of this cyclical dream, fusing with the gleam

Like a bird, their wings flap
and they are fitted, for every angel must ascend
Like a bird
Like a bird ensnared in the mouth of god
Light swallowed whole by the horizon
