i'm wasted at the wheel
but the keys are inside my drawer
i'm falling back asleep again
i'm putting things where they belong

above the sea
bird on a tree
trying not to drown
the waves pick up
the lungs give up
swallowing slowly

a pet down the street
the people i meet
i don't want to hurt anyone
it's all green to me
the land and the trees
i don't want to go back inside yet
ashes, ashes we all fall down
what's the point of killing in the process?
ashes, ashes we all fall down
what's the point of speeding up the process?

slaughter

thank you for the bed
thank you for the food
everyone around me
is getting sick, including me
at least i'm cage free
at least i'm humanely raised
i'm glad that you're here
it's time to decide
how will you kill me,
with the gun or the knife?
which is more comforting?
the gun or the knife?

where can you and I
be free from surveillance?
i just want to be alone
with you
but if this is the rest of our lives
endless video camera eyes
the only things we'll have to show
are stealing, making art, and making love

owl eyes
03:21
|

|
in blue bar light
owls are watching
no need for resolution
no more mental suffering
death to the old self
lying on a sofa all alone
death to the future self
taking up space on a retail shelf
far from home
recollecting images of dark and empty streets
colors changing by the hour
everything fits perfectly in line
for everyone in sight
box it up or throw it all away
there's no use in letting things stay the same
