Hush now, close your eyes
open your mouth, swallow lies
Hush now, close your eyes
open your mouth, swallow, swallow lies
Moth breath fluttering
He whispered to me
the violence of silence
We have a terrible secret that we
must never repeat
& if i do, he'll dedicate his life to
ripping me to shreds
Remember to forget.
Poison crown of regret
Sucking life like funeral flies
Shadow of Oedipus
Eat the fever; knife the eyes
Remember
to forget
to relent
to surrender
Remember
to forget
to relent
to surrender
I hope you die like swine surrounded
by starving dogs
I'm stained by your sin like the
blood soaked boards of the cross
Between the Devil & the deep sea,
you'll find me
dreaming evil endlessly, aroused by
life's fantasies
What do you do when dreams come
true and it's all so ordinary?
Stitch the wounds of complacency
and hide your eyes from reality?
I am the shape of a God lifting up
the sky.
Remember
to forget
to relent
to surrender
Remember
to forget
to relent
to surrender
insurrection
INSURRECTION
I kicked you out of bed
stabbed knives into the walls
poured gas over your head
struck a match in the hall
This will remind you
This will remind you
This will remind you the burden
we carry
This will remind you
This will remind you
This will remind you the razors are ready
Room after room I hunt the darkened
world for you
Casket black, dried & cracked, ashes
among the dunes
But I've gone blind in time to lose
you to the dark
Now I'm immune to you and your
whorish heart
Hus now close your eyes
Open your mouth, swallow lies
Hush now you're all mine
Close your eyes, close your eyes
Remember
to forget
to relent
to surrender
Remember
to forget
to relent
to surrender
