27's

i will never be here the same again
i can’t feel the passing amber
like a halo over-glow
i can’t feel the street lights reaching
like a neon undertow
the moon is never full
as much as i want to be so
circle the flaws
cut where they overlap
i will never feel the same again
i still think about those 27s
and watching the smoke slow
look at us dissipating
yeah, that was so long ago
no self control
inherited violence exposed
another blacked out episode
an open circuit fever
a blown fuse society
made you nonbelievers
a blank slate anxiety
voices turn to slurs
hey, do you wanna come over?
the laws of purity blur
a holy silencer

Brutalist

watch this space unfold and surround you
you didn’t leave
it left you
out of view
turned these homes into forbidden spaces
changing names, changing faces
memory traces
an uneasy peace held sways
a sunrise drag
through the edge of the frame
memory sustains
watch this space unfold and surround you
you didn’t leave
it left you
out of view
a closed captioned love
changing frames, erased
gets lost in blank spaces
lean into pain
imagine the decay
a lean into pain
against a brutalist architecture
watch this space turn cold around you
concrete dreams
all of you

Tone
03:21
|

shedding old forms, exposed impurities
“there’s so much to say but you won’t remember”
a scorched earth policy
we interrupt with a regularly scheduled apology
no cache for the cold cuts
a sensory waste behind us
and all i can hear is your tone
and i went off on my own
“there’s so much to say but you won’t remember”
and all i can hear is your tone
“if that’s how you want to drink, we shouldn’t drink together”
and i went off on my own
(contaminate me)

it’s easy to critique
from the comfort of your blue lit screen
got lost in your forum feed
all i want
a dream sequence speech
the internet is a guillotine
for every botched, echoed thought
all i want is some relief
burn blue
a taboo salute
the suffocating atmosphere
the clutter of design
signs of repetition
i’ve seen a thousand times
threats of impermanence,
of what we leave behind
the mind asleep
i roll my eyes to the screen
it all repeats
evenly spaced rings
its easy to critique
from the comfort of your blue lit screen
get lost
a dream sequence speech
the internet is a guillotine
for every botched, echoed thought
all i want is some relief
i am the messenger of discomfort
with words on decline
waged war on contentment
a black landscape traces the skyline
it all repeats
find a release
a black landscape traces the skyline

Double Exposure
06:06
|

playing in my shadow to disconnect
burns in my shirts from your cigarettes
i don’t mind
you can’t look me in the eyes
i don’t mind, i don’t mind
i’ll watch you leave and try to forget, yeah
i don’t mind, i don’t mind, i don’t mind
you’re not listening again, boy
you’re doing it again, boy
you keep running your mouth, boy
(i’m seeing double exposure
it’s the same frame over and over
i’m seeing double exposure
it’s the same frame only slower)
you’re a runaway
you’re on a chaotic plane
you’re looking for an escape
you’re the divine taking shape
nothing left but glasses of blush wine (crashing)
nothing’s wrong, i’m doing just fine (crashing)
