Moloch

drowning in this
hand clenched into a fist
wishing i could be a mist
consecrating demons from the aether
all the children dying
moloch, moloch
moloch, moloch
moloch, moloch
you will never
breathe through sulfur
moloch, moloch
moloch, moloch
judgment!!!!!!

C'est La Vie

cadence, i guess it’s just the way you say it
i’m broken, but i’m still functional through Satan
just joking, not even she can help me
i’m fading, playing dead, facing my decaying
c’est la vie
that’s all you get from me
i am dead, hit myself in the head
i feel fine, better than when i was alive
i, i’m overcome with freedom
tell them i’m fine when you see them

Butterflies and Moths

i used to be so lost
but in the botanic garden i knew just where i was
even if in the moment it was brief
touch the sky, look at your hand
are there remnants of the clouds in the seven of your palm? what does the sun feel like
do you get heaven in your nails
are you convinced that you could fly through the fallout of a bomb?
you could make a dumpster feel like a bed of roses
and my heart used to be coal
but now it’s diamonds and you’re a thief
butterflies and moths
i love those butterflies and moths
and you know this song used to be about you
it’s so crazy to think i used to think i used to think
that writing you a song would make you never wanna leave
i guess i was wrong, yeah, i was wrong
with a hug and a little kiss, i will say my good-
byes if that’s what you wish, if you insist
don’t forget the time we spent together
you’re nothing but a killer in a bloodstained sweater
butterflies and moths
i love those butterflies and moths
say it to me again

Cardinal
02:19

under the water, i can hear them sing
i can feel the stream flowing through the cracks in my teeth
break up scaffolding, you die, i’m too high
and i think that i should let the rocks from this stream
close my mouth
heard you say i’m like a sword without a sheath
when you cut through my foundation there are roses underneath
feeling better now, i’m the cardinal of my keep
only think of you when i sleep
nobody wanted this but i’ll have to sacrifice myself, the captain goes down with the ship
and if you wanted this then you knew just what you were doing and you’ll get away with it
i
i hate love
turn a puddle to a lake and now i swim in my mistakes
i live it up
and you were like a diamond covered in the mud
i want you to see me suffer
open up the ground
open up the ground
i’ll be safe and sound
when i’m in a mound
when i’m in a ditch
i will not be missed
maybe i just will
i don’t give a shit

On The Beach

maybe i should burn off my fingertips
and officially extinguish myself from you
no way you can find me
maybe i should
i’ll take every word you say
and stay true to societal norms
i’ll isolate my brain
go insane
how could you ever understand?
maybe i’ll burn off my fingertips, officially
stop cutting my hair so short
stay true to societal norms
i could do it, i could do it
i could do it all out of spite
i could do it, i could do it
i could leave it all behind
maybe i should burn off my fingertips
i could leave it all behind, i could leave it all behind
remove all of my flesh, no way to find me
i could do it out of spite, i could do it alright
maybe i should burn off my fingertips
and officially extinguish myself from you
no way you can find me now

Surround Me In Birds

lemon drop suicide, think of you and i cry
so i’m high and i will be all the time
never meant for us to live in separate frames
but that’s life
a fumigated memory, okay that’s fine
i hear the world outside but i prefer the quiet in my mind
i’m going down
i don’t know how to try, think of you and i die
so i’m high and i will be all through the night
don’t intend disrespect but i’ll try to remove you from my head
best believe you’ll learn to understand
this is just the way i am
that’s the saddest part of it for me
i’m going down
surround me in birds, i will feel sweet i will feel complete
they’re better than your words, i will feel relief yeah i will feel sweet
surround me in birds, and i will feel complete yeah i will feel sweet
surround me in birds (they’re better than your words)
i don’t want to be seen that way
i don’t want to be loved that way
i don’t think that i am that way, i don’t think that i am that way
i don’t want to be seen that way
