Carefree murders on 27nd street
Show up in the Halcyon Digest written up last week
Faithlessness shows up in another faceless community
Where their gods have abandoned them and every child is free
We biked around the neighborhood in search of our friend
We biked around the neighborhood in search of our friend
We biked around the neighborhood in search of our friend
Our friend was dead but in the end we could only pretend
Sometimes wishing to die for something more than misery
I called you seven times last night, but you never answered me
I drank for my anxiety, my love for you was gone
I left my house at 3AM and kept my television on
chorus

Wash yr lungs

time might wipe me out
a slight refusal by me
with empty headed thoughts
and early morning seizures
play that dirty hand
slip down through your throat
so that I might wash yr lungs
while you bum my smokes in silence
circle the teenage car
with the broken tail light
while the helicopters hunt me down
and I can't remember why
crash course through the light
sticky fingers finger
all the teenage girls to death
by the dirty boys in jock straps
---
losing a conversation
have nothing left in your mind
but have something left in your spine
puke from all the tea
cough until your eyes bleed
so that I might wash yr lungs
and say goodbye forever

Lockjaw

So I crush
up white daydreams
almost felt the touch
of an endless month
before I came up
In the hush
of my shallow sleep
wash over the rush
I'm waiting to be sung
Your dead sun rising
thin and quiet
with a lockjaw
lockjaw
In the dawn
rocking in my wired soul
feel the earth
roting cold in the sun
Yellow teeth
sinking deep into my cheek
here comes the flood
oh a mouth full of blood
your dead sun rising
thin and quiet
with a lockjaw
lockjaw
your dead sun rising
thin and quiet
with a lockjaw
lockjaw

"Started sound-ACH-started sounding like joy division."
"What?"
"Your bass parts."

And if the void calls you
Forget your past
And leave the questioning
To all the boys in the band
Remember your father
Forget your sins
Tell me, darling, did you say
something significant?
And when they've all left you
You should do the same
Cuz, in the end, you'll end up
All boring and tame
And when your love holds you
In their hands
Forget that all that you are
Is a pawn in their plans.
