Unlove
On God
I thought maybe
We could spend some time
Alone
On love
Maybe I maybe I Maybe
When I tried to message you
I pressed ‘Unlove’
Instead of ‘Send’
It was only a matter of time
Wasn’t it?

I Was Like What

I Was Like What
I was inside
I was on top
I was remembering love
I had forgot
I was like hello
I was like oh my
I was like what
I was building muscle
I was getting strong
I was forgiving Motherfuckers
Who did me so wrong
I was like Goddamn
I was like Fuck
I was like what
I was making moves
So many moves
When I first saw you
Then your beauty
Struck me dumb
It shot me through
I was like Lord
I was like Amen
I was like what

My Skin Is Finally Clearing Up
The teeth
It was the teeth
It was the teeth
That chewed through me
Repeat
Wash and repeat
Oil on feet
But Jesus knew me
Clap
Clap like an ape
Wearing a cape
Peeling a grape
Sell an illusion to me
Alright
Alright
My skin is finally clearing up
Alright
Alright
My skin is finally clearing up
Cry
Cry like a fish
Suck all the dicks
Don’t let them make you boring
Snore
Snore through the clicks
Pussies and tits
Baby Im always eating

Boats

Boats
The seaweed says hang on slow down.
The apple sky spits seeds they ripple.
Aluminum cans fade this is where they end up.
The person tossing them off the overpass could never have known.
In his mind this might just be a roadside convenience.
In his mind maybe it's the end of the earth.
My oars say hang on not so fast.
My blinking eyes say it's getting late.
Some day when this is all highway I'll need wheels on the bottom
And maybe a hook at the end of my paddle
So my people might find me if they wanted to
Follow my scraping scratching footprint with pitchforks into the city.

Exiting The Butcher Shop
The Lord said there would be thunder
And there was thunder
And he said there would be rain
And there was rain.
These are the drugs they gave me
The drugs they said would save me
I’m flushing them down
This is the prayer they taught me
The one they said would lead me
I’m throwing it up
It’s okay if your hand shakes
It’s okay if your heart breaks
You will be leaving meat
On the floor
These are the hands that I will use to build this house.

The Archaic Smile

The Archaic Smile
My heart like a bomb
My left eye still twitching
When there’s nothing wrong
My eyes like silver plates
My stomach, a tomb
For all the love I ate
And when I fall
I’ll be checking my pockets,
Looking for that number to call
A piece of jewelry
On a nude
Accentuates it’s nakedness
Just like the smell of smoke
On my fingers
Accentuates my nervousness
After awhile
We all succumb to that
archaic smile.
My hair is a mess
I don’t look as pretty as you
Wearing your dress
But I can adapt
I’m just waiting for
2 big hands to clap.

Whatever The Case

Whatever The Case
The cats are out
The throat is full
Of a new howl
They taught to you
How wide your gait
How curved your drawl
Describe in dance
The thing you saw
Whatever the case
Whatever offense
We will drive around this city
Until it starts to make sense
The meat rotates
The juices pool
What you think of them
What they think of you
Often late
Unless early at the wrong time
I am familiar with your kind of vibes
Whatever the case
When the money’s out
When I got nothing to say
I shut my goddamn mouth

You Can Make Art Out Of Your Life!
You can throw away the meat
All we need is the fur
Baby it’s cold out here!
You can make art out of your life!
Your art is your life.
Sharper than a knife.
All of the dogs! They got fleas again!
They out here trying to fuck!

Climb

Climb
Everywhere I climb
I never look down
To see what I left below
Above me: clouds
And more stairs
Sometimes rope
Sometimes a ladder
I wonder
Wherever I’m climbing to
Will I find you?
I’ll get really pissed
If it’s something lame
Like God.
Imagine if I fell
Oh no, that would be a long way down.
But if I did, would you catch me
Before I hit the ground?

Bringing Me Down
04:24
|
|||
I’m ready to write a new book
Ready to sing a new song
I think I’ll plant a garden
I think honest work might make me strong
I’m tired of me
Bringing me down
I’m no longer OK
With lying here on the ground
Time to lose the sad weight
Time to organize my things
Time to throw away
The heavy
Things that weigh me down
Things that get in the way
Of getting myself closer
To the man I can be
I’m tired of me
Bringing me down
I’m no longer OK
With lying here on the ground...

One Time

One Time
One time
Somebody said some words to me
But I forgot them
One time
I realized love could go both ways
And I got stronger
I relaxed
Driving in the car
With my kids
To the mothman museum
In West Virginia
Talking about things
And feeling the breeze
On my arm
Out the driver’s side window
I remembered
Life
Is a thing
That you experience
In a language
That only you understand
And you
Only half understand it
So, say what you need to say
In whatever language you speak
One time
Somebody made me feel good
For no compensation
And I was struck dumb
One time
I made myself feel good
Just by being still
Be still

Roll Credits

Why am I laughing?
Cuz I’m a total piece of shit?
Why am I accounting
For the life I’ve lived?
Because my children are
Gonna have to clean up after it...
What did God mean?
Did he even ever mean anything?
