Exit Entry 01:15

Intruder 03:10
When I feel like I'm intruding I just back away I know it's not worth to fry and force it, I'd rather stay at bay Sometimes people use good reason but their luck just fades away Then you meet them out of season and they don't know what to say Once I watched two perfect persons try and find their way Went down Downing, found a mountain, and then they slept away In the morning, bathed by new light they had to separate Once found reason splayed with good might, the other one just fades to grey

Detachment 06:21
Winding, falling, never wanting Detachment from yourself Words enduring, films assuring Better kinds of wonderment Fishes, spiders, making wider Paths of solace to get lost in There's a brother, there's a father, Looking up at seven sisters

Mutilate 06:32
How have I fallen into this trap of nothingness Feeling only it's somethingness, with others that feel it so If we follow trails of underblessed nails, That pound the bails of anthrolust, promising the tides of wonderness, only when you hollow your soul of it's comfortness I followed the forest's words, That told me sir you will never be a bird If you do you will fall into The carnivorous trap of feeding flesh And when it is time to fight the overmushed, Incredulous, fumbling bluffs Of aboveness We shall take to doing so For I once heard the lavished script Of the finest herds Grazing out from the underworld, only appearing to show that it is real Reconciled by fable trials Of the most imbile steaming tiles Supplying us with heat and warmth, But fucking someone over too ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Closing time always comes too early, Arousing time too late. Caught in between here and nowhere, Where'd the others go to mutilate? If you've never seen it broken, How will you know when it gets fixed? If it's continually unspoken, I don't think it will recreate

Cobwebs 05:17
Oh when the cobwebs start coming your way And the shadows keep running away You feel like your bound to a light you can't see Oh when the cobwebs start coming your way Oh why do shooting stars bring such misery It's like they only shine when you half see Then the matter is all done and the earth is still one Oh why do shooting stars bring such misery Oh how we hollow shallow boil in our veins And we keep on talkin' when there's nothing left to say But we keep on pacing on been fakin' for far too long Oh how we hollow shallow boil in our veins

Wastin' Away 03:12
Hey man you wastin', you wastin' away? You wastin' away for some other day Hey man you wastin', you wastin' away Using the used up useless day Wasted and waste in and wastin' away Wasteful and graceful and taken away Hateful and shameful and keeping astray Following the figures that lead our day Just face it you made it and threw it away I would have kept it and used it some day Half used and abused and thought as a stray Left in an alley for a bum the next day Hey there you saw it and looked so confused I know it followed you as if paying dues This weighted bag of plastic wrap and unfinished follow-throughs Nothing else to fall upon but trails of our entwining bonds Just get rid of your voice so you cannot ask for more Stay away from the shopping malls, the streets, and their doors Ignore the fortune that holds you in place Act as a noble kid who only hopes and prays

Well just try feeling when you just don't care Just try kneeling when you think no great heir Or maybe you could just get up and leave Stroll down the street and see if there is anything else to see So I took a walk outside on a cloudy afternoon Met a figure in the park he had something to say Boy I know the sun will come out tomorrow But it will be filled with anger and sorrow

Zenith 02:12
11.
In these narrow planes, sense shrinks into feelings From the outside in, they will all just seize to feeling, Glum 'bout everything, you and me we keep on turning They will not return, rather go in through the ending Endless lights afar, countering the stars Shining through the past, will we find the final flicker? Fasting with the sun, just reverses back unto The plane, the line, the point Locked too tight to even ponder What is so far beyond Why we all just disappear And in a flash are back so near Once again we fall behind, With only confidence as not to shine away So meaningfulessly, almost caught incessantly Looking in a shallow well, From someone else's ringing bell Putrid green the leaves, rusting in the breeze, Falling with the snow, grounding them for maybe ever Where did they just go? In the throat or out the nose If we call upon, forces unlike these we might just go……..

Bugs 05:02
Shivering in the summertime Falling down into the wind Calling the witness that once had your Best thoughts and habits encircled in time Now just impeding, receding, misleading Your wondering, wandering mind Radio waves fighting for next in line, Bouncing off footsteps not adjacent to our kind And surely the chorus that was here before us Left a note hard not to find But eaten by bugs of the smallest and shallowest Body, shape, weight, lungs and thighs Walk down the alleyway, Follow nothing but what you touch Hide away from anyone Blocking your physical self
