Look at the goo, this mess I've made
I'm stuck in the blue, it's what I crave
Mr Magoo, plays tape loop
Oh baby blue, don't know what to do
Catch me grooving in the goo
Catch me grooving in the goo
Catch me grooving in the goo
Catch me grooving in the goo
Look at the goo, this mess I've made
I'm stuck in the blue, it's what I crave
Mr Magoo, plays tape loop
Oh baby blue, don't know what to do
Catch me grooving in the goo
Catch me grooving in the goo
Catch me grooving in the goo
Catch me grooving in the goo

The dream we had came true,
That's what my mother would say
They had that dream too,
It was my dream
That's your dream out now

It's like roses and polymers
Fuck your astronauts
And out the front
Bright lights will spell out
Rory Hellwig's light speed ballet
I'm happy as fat
But you are out there drunk
Screaming blue bloody murder
But if we've said
The things we've said
Why should I ever see you again?
Hey so how're you going
I've never seen the skies so blood red
It's divine
And you've matured like a young man's wine
But in my mind
You're on a cloud
Saying "Hey there kiddo,
Won't you get me down?"
And I've found
That if the sky's so fucking big
I'll never see

(It's a) Saturday night
Where are you
The flourish and the spoil
Rolled into one
Shouldn't we be?
Drinking sherry
In a hotel lobby
Somewhere
Matching rings
And pretty things
Oh darling please
Sink your teeth in me
It's awfully later on
We'll pull through
All this talk of us
Be with your boy so blue
Shouldn't we be?
Drinking sherry
In a hotel lobby
Somewhere
Matching rings
And pretty things
Oh darling please
Sink your teeth in me
All these girls around
But still I think of you
Desire be and go
Am I your Fool?

Dreamlike Days
05:58

Take me back to the dreamlike days
Walking around in a dreamlike haze
My skin hot like I've never been
I can't run and I can't swim
Take me back to the dreamlike days
Walking around in a dreamlike haze
Soles of shoes all but worn
Away just to get to this fucking place
Take me back to the dreamlike days
Walking around in a dreamlike haze
I've broken none and every bone
This hits hard and close to home
You would have thought that the fantails woke you up-
Or elsewhere-
A lyre lark spinning soft dreams altogether
Stopping at her spindle
You dozed off on a beach
And wake up paralysed
Your mind lurches upwards
The waters beneath the Earth sliggle up and borrow themselves as worms where your hair strands accelerate from your head
Grains grip talons
Fantail sitting next to you asks
"Who are you,
And where did you fall from?"
You transmitigate
Your body becomes as frames
Projected disarray, sicksickwise
Beautiful giants clamping down the awful edges of their souls on the ridges
Fractal cascade
She repeats, urgently,
"Who are you
And where did you fall from?"
Stars shine through daylight
To reveal their coding
Constellation becomes website,
Banner reads,
"What lies beneath? A garden, so to speak."
The waves turn into
Flashing mementos of pride and self-pity
Solar winds rise to cool your CPU
Air opens to microchips
She sermons,
"Who are you,
And where did you fall from?"
Your form falls apart into text
You're an otaku board
Anonymous posts
The messages on you invariably say
"Whether together or alone,
These are the last moments of those
Dreamlike Days.”
Take me back to the dreamlike days
Walking around in a dreamlike haze
My skin hot like I've never been
I can't run and I can't swim
Take me back to the dreamlike days
Walking around in a dreamlike haze
Soles of shoes all but worn
Away just to get to this fucking place
Take me back to the dreamlike days
Walking around in a dreamlike haze
I've broken none and every bone
This hits hard and close to home

Rains of Yaegl, Pt. 2
00:48

The night that it happened it was raining like this
Of course it doesn't really mean anything
It's a little painful to remember
It's very beautiful
I wouldn't have it any other way

Masquerade
03:04

Heck it's awfully gusty
A confusion monsoon
Hazey brained in the moonlight, darling
Who's feeling at home
Certified appreciation
Burning over lava lakes
This is not my netball uniform
But it's a me cabaret
Can you feel it? She's dying
Lilith's fading away
Pulse core modulation, sweetheart
And having thoughts that're gay
Certified appreciation
Burning over lava lakes
This is not my netball uniform
But it's a me cabaret
Disavow your skin endings
Hot weld your mask on
As steady machinery devouring fingers
Endless geysering torso that wants to be rejected
Scuttle your flesh
And when the beautiful orange eyes open,
You will tell it no,
And let me in.
I wonder how much you love me
When me's not Roy
Did you need your man, honey,
Is that why she's gone?

Part of It
03:21

The very air you breathe
Has been inhaled and exhaled
All before
The rarity that is
A virgin piece of Earth
We're part of that and unpure
Celebrate in your hate of her
Watch as your body
Transforms into an inkblot
Plants grow out
Of the sweat soaked mattress
Cruelly disintegrating angels
If I hadn't crashed
Shipwreck on the rocks
Now I'm ash
If I hadn't crashed
Shipwreck on the rocks
Now I'm ash
An ocean couldn't fill
The hole that's left
When the sharp cool wind
Stabs you in the chest
It's as numb as
The dirt you stand on
Numb at the wheel
Your speech disfigured by the
Silver sounds of living light
From Seraphim
Cover me from the fire
It smells like dust and moonlight
If I hadn't crashed
Shipwreck on the rocks
Now I'm ash
If I hadn't crashed
Shipwreck on the rocks
Now I'm ash
There's an old blue man
Standing on a hill
Imparting wisdom to you
The fire in your bed keeps
Your heart much warmer
The voices in your head keeps
Your mind much louder
Watch your drink get roofied
Drink it down chasing
With the sweat of the sea
And your heart could breathe
(Simultaneously)
Turn your insides outwards
Relinquished of your sins in the light
Cuts turn to scars
Healed but reminded all my life
Pour out your bloodwords
Give yourself to the Glow
Here is my body
How beautiful it is to be an angel
(Simultaneously)
The voices in your head keeps
Your mind much louder
The fire in your bed keeps
Your heart much warmer
The fire in your bed keeps
Your heart much warmer
The voices in your head keeps
Your mind much louder
