Hello, I wanted to be left alone,
But now you’re home.
Whatchu got to say to me
That I don’t already know
But keep forgetting?
—
Stay away from this place.
I wanted to be left alone,
So I could keep killing
Myself with these instruments of death.
So tell me how does it feel,
How does it feel now that you know?
—
Street lighting illuminated a crowd.
I walk alone, but they got up to my cloud.
They said boy, better walk the walk.
I did what I could, so I just talked the talk.
To be better is a dying wish,
I’ll never get there if I die like this.
Uh, 2, 3, baby come with me.
I-said-a 4, 5, 6, and I shook my hips like:
—
I’ve been staying away from the light but it
Never fails to find me in the darkness.

Transient
03:32
|

|
Everyone I love leaves me.
Nomadic lifestyles seem to please me
For a while, until they leave again.
Then I’m left alone
In the same old concrete pen.
—
Trying to build a foundation to stand upon.
In hopes that one day I’ll build high enough to see
Where you’ve gone.
—
I’d love to know how you’ve grown
While I’ve been on my own
In your old home.
What’s it like to be so free,
So far away from me?
Do you get lonely like I do?
—
Something about the transient nature of it
Has kissed my heart.
You’ve got what I like.
Only the tiniest of hints of a footprint
You left behind.
You’ll remember me next time.

Sometimes it feels like I’m to blame.
A mind that runs away with anything.
There’s pain in my chest when I get this way.
Stuck in my head about the same things.
—
Like the past & future,
Not the present, cause I’m in it.
Only ever worried about reality when it’s make-believe.
—
Take a deep breath and
Unwind the corkscrew.
Spiraling out,
Don’t let your thoughts control you.
///
Break down, break down this revolution of
Thoughts: going round and round,
Right out from under ‘em.
Yeah you know how it do.
Get your mind right, sharpen the view.
—
Sometimes I feel like there’s no escape.
Overwhelming momentum of my brain.
It’s like a fire that keeps me awake.
And I’m extinguishing the flame.
—
Bounce to another one.
Bounce to another and
Bounce to a bounce to yet another thought.
I put em on, I take em off.
Hold up, wait a minute.
Can’t get a grip, I’m faded.
Starting to lose the battle so I gotta...
—
Just show me the way and I’ll go.
Back to the place where I found love.
In the present-moment, my anxiety
Dissolves with the fear and worry
That I carry around with me.
I put em on, I take em off.
Go get your friends, I can show it off.

Feel

I’m feeling sound again.
Rocked by waves:
Frequencies that mend
All the pain. The sweet sorrow.
Medicine in my veins.
Goes deep as the marrow.
We all get lost along the way.
The sounds will teach you.
Listen to your heart, baby.
I’m trying to reach you.
Just let go.
—
Desecrated by pop culture,
Media darlings and their blood-thirst.
Fractured framework for an artist.
Read that teleprompter,
You fucking narcissist.
-
Fix this fucking mess,
This series of events
That led to how the heart and soul’s
Been stripped from what we’re fed.
Don’t listen to what they’ve said.
It’s all in the head
Of authoritative corporations
Trying to shape the narrative, but
—
I won’t go so quietly.
I suffer for art that instigates:
That makes me feel a way.
—
Oh my god,
Look at this life I’m in.
Master of creation,
Build my own way,
The path to letting go.
—
Just let go...

Nobody’s ever made me feel better,
Better than you do.
I never thought I’d be so in love
In love with you.
Let’s make a deal, I’ll never leave your side if you promise to never leave mine.
I can’t get enough of you.
—
I wanna watch you all the way from here.
Wanna watch you shake it.
Move that ass, yeah.
—
What happened on the dance floor?
I did my thing, tried not to stare but couldn’t look away.
Baby, you own that fuckin dancefloor.
I could dance with you every single day.
—
I never wanted anyone else quite like you.
—
Honey, my touch, it opens you up,
Relaxes you.
Sweetheart, your touch has got me fucked up, nothing I can do
Except roll around in it,
Feed into the addiction.
Stop everything and submit
to the feeling I get when you
Touch me slowly baby.
—
Do you wanna get away for a minute?
Go somewhere quiet to explore the energy.
Feels like I already know your spirit.
If I gave you myself would you have me?

Nervous

I feel there’s something in the air.
I thought I might’ve caught a glare.
Ooh I tried not to stare you down.
But you love it as much as I do.
-
It’s tossing, turning in my mind
Like it’s the first time.
—
You make me nervous.
I watched from a distance.
I didn’t want to lose it.
I watched you work it,
A powerful woman.
Baby I’m nervous.
—
I feel there’s something in the air.
-
Having another psychedelic self-destruct.
In my head about God knows what.
Come to find out you’ve been doing it too.
Cut from the same cloth,
Our signals uncrossed.
-
Wanted to tell you how I feel.
Still too afraid to seal the deal.
Until a shared affection was revealed.
—
Babylove, I’ve never felt a sweeter touch.
Make my eyes roll back in my head so hard that I can fuckin’ see my brain
Whenever your skin’s on mine again.
I know now that you know
That this feeling is something profound.
Your ocean keeps on dragging me down.
But I'm fine with drowning in it.
—
I know there’s something in the air.
—
I’m over being nervous.

Yeah, I’ve lost my touch.
It seems I’ll never get any better
At making friends, or socializing.
—
I’d wait outside your rooms.
A pest only an exterminator could remove.
Forced my way inside, only to be refused.
I’m sorry to intrude.
—
I guess you go home and try to forget
That nobody wants you.
Act like you had no clue.
But everybody tells you so.
Caught in the undertow, you’re all alone.
—
I watched them play from my window.
I’d try to join but couldn’t hold my own.
Became the target for every joke.
How could I have known?
—
Didn’t need them once I found myself.
I wrote a million songs as a
Cure-all, it helped me see the
Truth about it all, in hindsight
I hoped maybe I could go again.
—
Look at what it did.
