lyrics

Brokencastaway
No longer in print - every last letter has been removed
Apply the findings - filtered while laughing at a tiny speck
I've spread myself too thin - peel me off the walls
Smokestack beast belching - the jaws of life
Vessels are landlocked - can't see the river for the sticks
ROW! ROW! ROW! ROW!
Somnambulating - display the hustles that are so divine
Pews spill forth with waste after a muted sermon
This purest corrosion gives me life
All these clicks and pops will come and go - droning must sustain
Rip the callous off - sunken eyes so low
So tired and threadbare – sinking faster than a drunkard's comfort
A swivel of the stool turns faith to purest doubt
The sewers repent as the chain smokers worry – the powders and figures make twitching losers
With fidgeting rat-sense they fuck and they sweat - they bleed and secrete so sweetly
I smile back – through boastful neglect paired with trial and error
I free fall with something I held on to – something worth holding onto
On earth thy will be purged
Get me out of this elevator
Hand me down guilt received from sullen mannequins
Life is a joke – the punchline is drunk – the audience went home with no refund in hand
So many ways to make a bad decision – circumvention can be so expensive
Circumvention can be so expensive – so many fronts – try to keep up
So many ways to make a bad decision – so many fronts – try to keep up
Confessions are made when guilt wins and guilt is known to cheat
So many fronts – try to keep up
