(... in the city of the dead) I won't stay awake if I can't kiss your fingers The creole porter misses you but I don't It's like Saint Peter said in the city of the dead The creole porter misses you but I don't It's like Saint Louis said in the city of the dea...

This is no time to fuck up Scooting around the linoleum On all fours, what for again? Better yourself for somebody else This is no time to wrestle You're gonna burst a blood vessel What for again? We could be falling in love, like nobody else Tonight your...

You can't make it You can't cry You can't make it home tonight It's to far to walk To your goddamn van It's too hard to come by your hand Drunk on nothing Drunk all night Mad at nothing Close your eyes You could run on iron lungs It, would not k...

shrug off this wretched event stoic, detached, you relent you wonder why we crash but don't land how a purring engine sputters like these coals that never cooled why we crash but don't land you heated even the mist around this mossy existence we never f...

That filthy stare He's on a tear Cold water coming for the warm water junkies I found a friend Lost him again Poor sucker freaked, and couldn't swim with the monkeys Away, away, gone away Away to your still house In your still house You fall into icy blue...

Eyes in the back of your head Ear to the ground Love in the back of your mind We're on a hill, stay very still I would love a better drug You lucky jerk I'm so unsettled I'm superstitious You're so rattled you're suspicious You lucky jerk You left your lion...

hold the flashlight under your chin closer as the lights dim you lonely doll you lucky dog you free fall down to the living room closer as the lights dim spread the glitter on your pillow count your blessings on your fingers crawl your way back down...

Melting into slo-mo An inevitable slowing Weak in the knees and in the fists All signs waiting patiently for you to spot them pointing and your esp is on the fritz Day 3 Christen this city with the sound you grew up wanting jangle trauma in the light Bus stop...

Up this way down under the ocean Tumbled in anger by angry water Getting up is what hurts In the bath tub again watching the water drain Twisted in slow-mo by angry water Getting up is what hurts Getting up is what hurts Then you melt into the background (da...

Slipping down railings And balconies With a sleepy ease I never knew I navigate my way to you Indigent darkness Thick as a dream A liquid party underneath Though I'm still shaky and weak Knees pressed against the leather couch I couldn't find my bra and You...

Circumlocution Just a parlor game in a kissing chair Anything to make me sigh You never really changed You never really tried to detox A constellation of zits And a snail trail of snot I’m losing patience with this Hoping that you’re not an asshole Echo loc...

Rats scatter after waves on the dirty beach You're seriously losing me A shiny object caught my eye, of course These dog days always leave me with a stomach ache One dip in the well and I'm done-in Coffee and vitamins Breakfast of champions Don't touch me...

Down in the willow garden Where me and my love did meet There we sat a courtin' My love dropped off to sleep I drank a bottle of burgundy wine My love she did not know And there I poisoned that dear little girl Under the flank below I stabbed her with my da...
