Haven’t you got it
Yet
To finally quit feeding
The endlessly hungry
Body eating spirit
That drains
All sparks
Of life
From your inside
Out
Turn around
And do nothing
About it
Vertigo
A quarter
Vanishing
And nothing happening
It was more
Quiet now
The ceiling creaking
Crumbling
Somewhat
Throbbing dull
In sudden realization
Gone
Morphed
Into apnea
Virulent whirr
Flustered static
Translated into imagery
Avert concentration
Oh
Oh no
Where did I go
And finally broke
‘cause I lost
All of my hope
It wasn’t so foggy anymore
Although the more dustier
It wasn’t so bad
After all
When everything seems far away
Substanceless
And colours fade
To grey
Vertigo
It was getting dark
Outside too
Now
The clock strikes
3
6
9 p.m.
When I got reluctant
Out of bed
The clock said
Go back to sleep
After three more quarters sweep
Intolerable tolerance
Then sudden
Uncontrollable turbulence
The vision so blurry
And sound just a heavy
Distorted
Drumming
Against the walls
Of my ears
Oh
Oh no
Where did you go
When I needed you the most
When I lost
All of my hope

A dull, subtle, continuous whistle is to hear, produced potentially by the thin white painted pipes horizontal alongside the left wall, when one would walk in front outside of it backwards against a closed door and the other left, when one would do a three hundred sixty degree circle turn starting in position, facing the opened door on the other side of it, when now shut than in the description beforehand belonging to the with white exfoliating paint covered heater under wooden windowsill under wooden window, both might be white painted, I gamble. When everything turns out as intended, you should now be facing yourself.

I try
To stay true
That did not work
With you
Sometimes the only way
To make certain learn
Is to spread my heated sperm
I’m gonna play
With you
Just to show
How absurd is what you do
To open your eyes
To all
These lies
I hope
Now you’ll fucking realize
Measure value and success
By numbers
What a mess
Not how deeply a heart you’ve touched
Isn’t that fucked
They sing
Their unventuresome songs
For way too long
Now is the time
For a new dawn
I’m gonna play
With you
Just to show
How absurd is what you do
To open your eyes
To all
These lies
I hope
Now you’re fucking real
I’m gonna play
With you
Just to show
How absurd is what you do
To open your eyes
To all
These lies
I hope
Now you’ll fucking realize
And to make you understand
I got to speak your language
Hence seizing cramps
Followed emotional damage
I’m gonna play
With you
Just to show
How absurd is what you do
To open your eyes
To all
These lies
I hope
Now you’re fucking real
I’m gonna play
With you
Just to show
How absurd is what you do
To open your eyes
To all
These lies
I hope
Now you’ll fucking realize

The Underground Man
05:12

Lay low
And sing small
Collect stones
To build a wall
Murder of crows
Above
They swarm
I could run
But I can’t hide
From it all
For I take myself
With me
Can I forgive
My own
It was one
Of the only things
I used to care about
Heard a voice
On a dead phone
More of a chant
Than a call
A drone
A collected fossil
Washed ashore
A relic of old beauty
Long before
Gone underground
It was one
Of the only things
I used to care about
Now I’m the only
Left here
With a huge amount of doubt
And I’m so fucking over this
Scam
Yeah, I’m
The underground man

People These Days

Here we go again
Playing
Another stupid song
This goes on
For far too long
The sound is the same
Somebody probably already used the name
Are we still playing
This game
The only escape is to slit our veins
I don’t approve
Those lazy rhymes
Sung by a fool
But whatever
You don’t seem to mind
What is there
To lose?
Only your life
Goodbye
Die before you die
Let’s escape these lies
And I tell you
You’ll be fine
Well
After you hung yourself
Up to cry
Cry, motherfucker, cry
Don’t you see
There is no reason
Why
Jokes aside
When you kill yourself
Please let me be your guide
Here I go
Again
Singing
Another silly verse
All this noise
Is getting on my nerves
Can’t we enjoy
A moment of(f)
Silence in this world
Or does it get uncomfortable
To quick
To experience
Your own
Unfiltered
Self
A bit
Yeah, I’m kind of proud
To not play
A productive part
In this destructive farce
Though I can’t close my eyes
In the night
They flicker
And twitch
These are side effects
Of being able to see
Through
The vertical slit
It’s no privilege
And I hate to repeat myself
Everything is already
Thought
Said
And written
But people these days don’t read
And never listen
Well
Good for them
Cause
It stops me from living
For your own
Happiness sake
Keep your distance
To him
Good riddance

It’s calling me
Through my waking dreams
I can not sleep deep
I wonder why
I wanted to die
A fading sedative
A creeping need
A lurking fear
A fallen angel
Listen
Oh my dear
To the buzzing of the crickets
In the thicket
Like dripping honey
Lick it
Life is a wave of sound
Up and down
When my mind came around
But then it’s already gone
Way too soon
What can I do
To come back to you
Without losing
What I chose
Is much more
Amusing
I’m going to choke on this big joke
The white light
Shining smoothly
I have seen
On the verge
Of the gate of
Two separate realms
It soothed my mind
A failed arrangement
A sudden displacement
Always repressing
A sentiment distressing
Oh, don’t you want to change
That draining attempt
To escape it
On the long run
You won’t make it
So you better not fake it
Dive
Into the wall of sound
Lay flat on the ground
Climb that mount
And fall
All the way
Down
Come on, man
Goddamn
Do it again
Lament over one’s fate
To be better off dead
You’ve seen happier days
Don’t worry
That will take place
This will come about
Anyways
Everything I touch
Breaks
Turns
To dust
A frenzy
Of lust
A mad love/laugh
One more thing
Sometimes hard to comprehend
Always look
Straight ahead

It’s going to continue
To do what it does
No matter what it takes
Rip away it’s tail
It still escapes
Goodbye
But at least we try
To capture some light
In the deepest night
Until eventually we’ll die
Goodnight

I once wrote a song
Easy to sing along
Without much effort
Hence little essence
Four chords
That you’ll remember
Even when out on a bender
It was OK
Though not great
But who am I to say?
A fucking loser
Anyway
It doesn’t matter
Today
Forget it
It’s no good
It was weird though
They did not care
I thought it was quite fit for theirs
Everyone
And Everything
Can be replaced
Especially
Your Heart/hard on, mate
