havenāt slept in days so i got no patience
as a result iāve retained no information
because the parking lot in my brain remains vacant
no entry sign my new occupation
falling under lights
the hours pass on by
youāre calling my name
and yet i canāt reply
only a single demand
my island left unmanned
a message in the sand
wave white noise from your hand
you could speak to me but Iām not listening
everything in this state renders distant
to be clear nothing personal iām being consistent
just contemplating my plane of existence
falling under lights
as the hours pass on by
youāre calling out my name
and yet i canāt reply
only a single demand
on my island left unmanned
a message in the sand
wave white noise from your hand

donāt trust nobody who doesnāt cook with salt
probably keeps their knives blunt as possible
thereās no room in this kitchen among the sociable
so lets grab all our things and just scramble
observe the man with metal on teflon
i can only hope heās aware of his wrongs
but his words stick strong in the back of my mind
as he fucks up my kitchen floor for the last time
canāt get the taste out
fallen foul of this mouth
the words come out sour
but always lost in the crowd

in the morning i wonāt call you
iāll keep quiet no need to speak
conversate in smoke signals
from your castle i wonāt breach
keep my distance from your touch
please stop breathing with my lungs
evacuate my thoughts at once
all this progress come undone
finally when the tide subsides
will you swallow up your pride?
blood vessels been filled with water
internals to capsize
i trade these words as currency
just accounting for your lies
and weāve been in the red for about
as long as iāve been alive
though my back is breaking
at least i still got a spine
in the evening i wonāt call you
iāll be silent no need to seek
your comfort in these walls
i hear them speak
a leased language i canāt repeat
swept by the current the house floods
evacuate this space at once
lost the use of my lungs
all this progress come undone
finally when the tide subsides
will you swallow up your pride?
blood vessels been filled with water
internals to capsize
i trade these words as currency
just accounting for your lies
and weāve been in the red for about
as long as iāve been alive
though my back is breaking
at least i still got a spine
watch yourself decompose in real time
like the plastic left out in the morning light
your words have never felt so brittle
off this balcony
why retreat when you can
simply lie through your teeth

canāt live your life out of spite
grudges for people with too much time
on their hands
waiting for apologies to land
never see the sun in 20 years
Iām not sure what iāve drawn into
horizon a different hue
while the moon in absent blue
taunting the end of noon
and these waves how they pull
gravity drawn to you
seething in self doubt
the walls surround
only reflective with the lights out
exile it away
well you know itās harder than it looks
to yourself youāre an open book
so take your advice or forever be
the dog chasing its tail
through the night, in the fog
the ship has lost its sail
staying put after all
iāll make them proud even if i fail
in such an honest site
true winds help steer your kite
if im ever stuck in place
display the words in my face
try repair before i replace
so rearrange my mistakes

mind your step
man came out the womb with a shovel
in his left hand
i promise you
always soon with the trouble
youāll make better plans
iāve seen the colour and shades in between
forced into your old convenience store routine
any time they call up, you open and unpack
why keep serving those who only subtract
one arm cuts the other off
yet still these hands have always been tied
caught inside the spin cycle
but these clothes never true to size
iāve seen the colour and shades in between
dragged into your old convenience store routine
any time they call up, you always unpack
why keep doors open to those who only subtract
only you know what you want
picture never been so clear
canāt you just assert yourself
more than twice in a year
busy staring at the dust
wondering how they disappeared
only move that you made
one that got you here
working overtime for free
your schedule is always out of sync
weāve got you on our guarantee
give your two weeks notice and leave

how
how long
iāve waited here til you yourself know
to let it slide
but you never learnt to drive
going off to sleep but iāve lost both my eyelids
wake up feeling like shit itās been decided
just inconsequential thoughts why be divided
next time id rather shut my mouth and stay silent
and after all these scenes ensue
why always be the car in pursuit
of this pettiness, itās overdue
for you to start the day anew
i
i know
i always have to hear your side out
itās only fair
but you barely ever try
nothing profound ever leaves this mouth
so i assure you thereās nothing to worry about
but the uncertainty i could do without
because i always apologise when in doubt
nothing profound ever leaves this mouth
so i assure you thereās nothing to worry about
nothing profound ever leaves this mouth
but please donāt take my honesty at discount
going off to sleep but iāve lost both my eyelids (and after all these scenes ensue)
wake up feeling like shit itās been decided (why always be the car in pursuit)
just inconsequential thoughts why be divided (of this pettiness, itās overdue)
next time id rather shut my mouth and stay silent (for you to start the day anew)
and after all these scenes ensue (idle warning)
why always be the car in pursuit (can you help me)
of this pettiness, itās overdue (light the morning)
for you to start the day anew (bright and early)

nothing else on offer than
these pockets full of oxygen
iāll burn slowly
ghosts appear at 9am
assembling in office chairs
i feel Iām drowning
iāll sleep til im blind
end my sight to survive
afterimages from the sun
the inevitable you canāt outrun
static injected in my veins
fuels this television gaze
blank staring
repetition in routine
vector image fever dream
despairing
iāll sleep til im blind
end my sight to survive
afterimages from the sun
the inevitable you canāt outrun
iāll be poor until i die
if not wealth than in time
but if i keep my health and mind
then iāll probably be alright

unfortunate astronaut
living in your own world for far too long
why donāt you return to our orbit?
instead of being an afterthought
your autopilot has lost its steer
but youāve navigated causes more severe
we can dispel all your fears
and burn them in the atmosphere
so im sorry iāve lost contact
idle in this vacuum i canāt hear back
the distance always keeps expanding uncapped
but iām still tethered to our old contract
so when you splashdown in the ocean
couldnāt care less about the remoteness
weāll be there before they notice
like the first time you showed us
so im sorry iāve lost contact
iāve been keeping my glass house intact
when i reappear we can enact
the better essence of our extract

you know that iād sacrifice my time to see you happy
even if the clock stops ticking doesnāt matter to me
we can disengage ourselves from all the noise
all i ask in return is that you donāt disappoint
donāt concern yourself over nothing its not worth
the trouble, no less a rotation of the earth
i know taller people have felt smaller
but its more enough to keep treading water
please keep your feet moving along the ground
you know we got to get going somehow
we can observe the absence of sound
but i only sink when you come down
feel these dull knives lurking and theyāre carving out your spine
grit your teeth among the weight of a thousand calloused eyes
in a bind shed your skin and escape so serpentine
iām amazed you still fight this current your whole life
