Bones Ache
Prowl in the shadows getting home late
Melt in the middle little snow flake
Hate what I see
Guess I'll just wait
It's just perspective anyway
She don't know that I'm never coming home
Terror like the yellow marrow in my ageing bones
My voice is never far
Hit the voicemail on your phone
Body blends with shadow
Breeze bears voice alone
Thought I needed you
Found out that I don't
Lonely queen of my castle
Drown men in my moat
Mould grows
I pushed him to the edge but I froze
You dip out
I dip in my toes
Oh you think you're slick do you?
Just another bitch to you?
Can't meet my eyes cos you know I see through
Better check your ties better bless it before I get loose!
Mirror looking back at me
Soothe my cuts allow myself to bleed
It's been a funny week
Made me see who the week is
Reach deep
Roots share food but you know I don't need it
Need to grieve a little bit
Sculpted stone
Hollow so shallow when I make my bones split
Higher ground I sit
I slip
I miss the grind
I miss the pit
Mask tied tighter
Rub salt in my slits
Bones ache
I wait
Bones ache
I plan my escape

Mind Fork

|
Too much time
Slip out my mind
Slip into something a little lighter
I'm alright,
Just check your back
Saw someone in the black behind you
I'm fine
I don't want to talk about it
Everything I need I learn to live without it
Poison breathe a little louder
Everything I need I learn to live without it
What climb too high
It must fall down
Brick by brick we break our town

Vanishing Point
01:31

Dance alone in my room
Run from the house
When I've got shit to do
Care for myself
Shave my legs real smooth
Change view
Eyes broke from the sun
Cos they're blue
Mud moulds in our palms
Ain't got shit to prove
Loving you
It's the purest shit I'll ever do
Road ahead melts away
Days walks on til its feet aches
Desperate breath condensed on the window pain
Shimmer up ahead it dissipates
Mouth dry again
Throat sipping bloody drink down the pain
I scream again
Pretend you can't hear again
Nose neat slit both sides
You're near again
Midday in the desert
The end
Trace your face
But it's fading
Taste escape I waste it

Breathe
01:50
|

So you hate me?
And yeah you think that's going to change me?
Cos lately
Been laid back taking things easy
Break me
Create me
Back down
No you'll never make me
Just lay here bide my time
Waiting
Leisurely pacing
Day passes anyway
Hands bound too tight to pray
Eyes shut and I just
Breathe
I need
You leave
I grieve
I breathe
Haunted house
No coming out
Beyond the doubt
Feel it in your spine now
Sun slashed eyes between the clouds
Hole deep can't find your way out
Burrow down
Down
Down
Down
Easy in the dark in the ground
You hope you don't get found

Forgetting How to Swim

Day escapes
Runs to grey
Your face in my pocket carries me through the days
It fades
My grasp on what you take
Stretching out the stakes
Lay me in the grass with the ticks and the snakes
Can't remember how I felt before
But now I feel nothing
Can't remember if I slept before
But now I need nothing
Silence of my orbit
It's kind of comforting
Street light gone
It ain't safe
Stuck in the dark
Stuck in the same place
Tried him once
And he loved the taste
Tried him once
Nah he's not my taste
Guess I'll just have to fake it
Bend it til I break it
Viscious bitten lips
Smile singed onto your face bitch
Can't remember how I felt before
But now I feel nothing
Can't remember if I slept before
But now I need nothing
Silence of my orbit
It's kind of comforting
Arms spread
Forgetting how to Swim

Sleepyhead

Sleepyhead,
Gang in my head
They're not my friends
Think I'll just stay in bed
Everyday I start anew
I quit the gin
I dead the zoots
Nails in my palms keep a hold of you
Swallow my words
Only speak on cue
Used to be enough
Used to be cool
Sun peels back the glue
PVA in primary school
I mend it
I break it
I save it
I waste it
Pack my brave face
Give my brain a vacation
I'll take it if it's cheap
I'll take it if it's free
Lower my standards with my low self esteem
Pound of flesh for the monthly bleed
Amber leaf for the lines in my cheeks
Drinks for me I don't get ID'd

Wild Horse
01:24
|

|
Chilled to the bone
Winter's cold still better than home
Wild horse I know
She owns the road
Grip my spine
Hair split too fine I ride
I'm free from time
I ride
Queen of dreams
Stretched as far as you can see
Nails painted red to reach it
Deceived it
Deleted
Conceived it
Like a rat I eat it
I made it mine for keeping
Lips sweetened
Pre- eaten
Retreating
Oh you learn to fear me
But I'm your favourite enemy
Steal a final look at me
Beauty in the beast it seems
Last thing that you need
Is the last thing that you see

Double Take
02:04
|
|||
|
Clench my fist too tight
I broke my zip
Stretch my top too white
You see my tits
I like it when you double take
Pretend to bite my lip okay
Where you going
I don't care
Just somewhere far away
Crisis
Blurs the sight of the iris
Prince naive with the Midas touch me once
I lap it up for the rest of the month
Happy little cat in my cage shut up
Sip the last milk from your cup
Love drunk til I'm out
Cold
Slumped
Fuck
Sunlight mocks me
Slowly beating on the box lid
Darkness burns it scorches my eyelids
Never know it til you try it
You're mine
You're my last fix
Hell fire by your side
I ride
I die your bitch
Clench my fist too tight
I broke my zip
Stretch my top too white
You see my tits
I like it when you double take
Pretend to bite my lip okay
Where you going
I don't care
Just somewhere far away

House Wife
01:22
|

|
Trend setter
Could be better but I'll settle
Hair matted
Eyes hiding heavy metal
Talk trash
Squeeze into the pants that make my arse nice
I don't catch flights
I'm a grounded little house wife
Mother from Earth
I'm arsenic thick
Funny you said that
Never asked you bitch
Mouth stay smiling like my face on glitch
Geeking stressed
Like I twerk on Twitch
Plastic pack
To give me that lift
Payback messy but I'll make it swift
Life left empty
Guess I'll buy some shit

Part of Me
01:37
|
|||
|
There's a part of me that I don't like
Keep it tucked inside
Take it out to look at sometimes
Little bit fragile for this life
And I'm still judged for all my crimes
So why should I be kind?
Don't mind
Don't mind
Comply to avoid the fine
You save your life with mine
I'll hide between the vines
Don't mind
Don't mind
Your body breaks with time
I reunite with mine
I shine
