about

written Nov 2017, recorded spring 2019 at Onion Dome

lyrics

'this listlessness is dumb'
said with the world out my window
but still i stay inside
listenin' to 'Hon' for the fourth time this week
searching for what truths lie
between the verses
like backmasked curses
hidden answers why i can't comply
with daily function
mental malfunction
in alexithymia i fear demise

(chorus)
summer sun
pinkened skin
who has time to treat it when
sun is setting
in purple skies
smoke is settling, so am i

i know they see in me
countless personal failures
like a sign across my back -
a letter to designate
that my ideals have corroded
in a pot-smoke acid bath -
but they don't demonstrate
'stead say "you're the life of the party"
or "damn that show was whack"
just exsanguine chatter-bait
'non mutatis mutandis'
my mantra will ring out

(chorus 2 - Alex Montenegro of skirts)
what you see
is what you get
nothing more can be let in
empty spaces
beckon lines
i regret wasting this time

some point light years away
Venetian hallways are crowded
with younger selves
and i'm still waiting for today
when i write these words
and sing them in refrain
maybe these frequencies
are burned in my memories
escaping time and place
the echoes left in their wake
ripple out from the surface
what's done has always been

where were you at the start of it all?
