Lore; an invocation

I'll let the world hear somethin'
Every face I ever made
Holds in my head a certain way
Dressing the same way all the time
Digs in the deep for a great rhyme
All my best secrets are a lie
I'll let the world feel somethin'
I'll let the world heal somethin'
While I crawl under my bed
Look into love skin to be shed
Naked look easy all the time
Hitting a speed needing a scribe
I'll make it big just riding the tide
I'll take the world to summer
I'll take the whole world somewhere
While my soul is dead
I'll build a holy headroom
Scrawled in magic blood
My name will hang on your door
And when all I've said
Passes through corridors
I'll stay with your dead
Casting myself into lore

God Damn

Ten thousand knees
Bend before the holes in me
Eating my heads
From the needles through my hands
Free? Death is free
Selling soul to bleed the beast
Untuck my bed
For the circuses and bread
A caged bird sings
Give me my wings (breath)
I'll leave a safety net
Set out for outerspace
Leave a severed head
Bring the one you like the best
One will get upset
While the other one gets rest
Free? are you Free?
Hell is cold and whispering:
"Unshackled feet
Belong to those who never sleep"
People sitting inside fall in love
My god it's so holy awful love
Populating the deeper lumiére
A goddess so lonely on furlough
Feel the sick and decide to call 'em low.
Onus is all you need to own.
Copulating your preacher derriere
Ominous only obfuscates
the feeble sickle.
The sky falls in cleave,
notice how what you took you leave.
Calculating, the reaper looms out there,
do you even care?

Elder Ghosts

Sail alone and open the golden hour aching moon
Set along the alter Osiris in his waking tomb
All the other elders have gone to die and you should too
[Reprise] I saved the best for last you'll see
Get the son with the eye of god and gaping wound
[Reprise] Only the test will set you free
[Instrumental] Hoo! (this replaces two one lines)
Fallen dead Persephone stay in bed til half past noon
I'll be in the evening consuming gin and licking wounds
Meditate lavender & sage in baking blooms
[Reprise]Turn on the alpha waves and heat
Sunset Opium silence in a naked room
[Reprise] Place all the fate you have on me
Hoo! (4 lines)

Brandied Peach

Excerpt from 'Orpheus, Eurydice, Hermes' by R. M. Rilke
Am I supposed to know what it means,
let it surround me?
Give it away to someone,
let them consume me?
Bleed and leave one more,
while everyone is watching
Slow the needy one,
give up the hobby?
We all say,
Even though it's meaningless
We all say,
Despite what your father did,
I love you
Even when it's meaningless
We all Love
Despite what we know is true .
We all Love
Disguise your tears with the sky,
The night must be raining
Hardly love myself this time,
Not that I'm trying .... (ohh Ohh)
Sleep me on your feet sometime
While everyone is laughing
I hope this is my last past life
Finally I'm living….. (Oh Oh)
We were warm
Eden's tender brandied peach
We held arms
Brain beating a truer heart
We are bored
Pleading don't be meaningless
We all die
Even when we procreate
We all die
You will only learn what I already know
A bastard in an orphanage
Sow a black tie man in an easy chair
Grow an ego with an opposite

I feel Love again
I can't believe, it could come true.

Waiting for the ghost of old
To be love in control
Who made the space for that?
Who wrote the map that brought us here?

Golden Ghosts
04:44
|
|||
When icons and alters bloom
When all that we have is gold
When words open bleeding wounds
When acres are blowing coals
These omens seen long ago
The eye from a Turing tomb
These windows are overgrown
The children are burning blue
Three seeds from a ginkgo tree
Take root and then turn into you
I'm alone and your alone
Let's pick a space to wait it out
(Repeats)
Pick a space to wait it out
Pick a space to wait it out
I'm alone and your alone
Let's pick a space to wait it out
(Repeats)

Are you alone?
Have you gone cold?
Are you afraid?
Losing your sol?
I'll be right here
I'll be right here
I had to die
Too many times
Burning off lies
Living on fumes
I'll be right here
I'll be right here
All these flickering blue lights
On alabaster shoes
Are luminary people
I've hung onto plaster moons
Huddle wick of smoke & fire
Valhalla's last perfume
Watch this glisten in delight then
Croon this sacred tune
Are your brooding afternoons
Of love or broken heart?
How in bitter heaven's hell
Is love what breaks your heart?
I'll be here soon
I'll be here soon
I'll be here soon
I'll be here soon
