ACETYL SLIDER

Dirty thoughts within my mind
Dirty drugs course through my veins
I've got to leave this world behind
I've got to leave the straight and sane

You're spoon-feeding me
A cotton soup so bitter
Gently heated bubbles bursting
Thirsting vapours make me shiver

In a fit of rigged up works
I go downtown to kill the pain
A gritting chill to meet the dawn
A point against the grain

And the juice will cook with mingled blood
I need a five cuz a three won't do
Softly heat, so gently stir
And quickly drive it into you


AGAINST THE SEA

This morning I awoke to find
A burning image in my mind
Of people passing landscapes
From another place and time

Upon this road I find myself
And soon I'm on my way
To meet a man so like myself
And talk upon his grave

But I can't escape that part of me
That tears apart the rest of me
Impulse beats the subtle will
Like a straw against the sea

There is no room for compromise
To bend and to break are one
I struggle as I try to find
Just what I will become


BLAZE OF MADNESS

Fantasies of burning nights and screaming lights surrounding me
Blockades passing crashing begging for an edge to slice
In the glitter of an eye I've found the will to stand before you
Battered naked purified by pain and burning bright

I'm rationed to starvation
Static sound now splits this shell of mine
In constant shift from what we know
To what we can't define

A tremor shakes us to our knees
In mental whiplash crack
The loop's no longer taken
The mind's no longer trapped

Telescopic tragedies are focus-fast upon the grey sky
Left to wander driven ever by the need to scream
I remember when the pleasure was the only factor
Realization proves that lies and smiles conceal a game

Insanity and righteous catatonic blaze of madness
Our sacrificial tenancy no longer pays the price
I'm fastened hard against the darkness, rhapsody gives light and guides me
Accidental psychic snap gives life and sheltered sight


ENVIRONMENT CONTROL

You look at me and you see
Reflections in my eyes
You judge me by these nullities
To love or to despise

Now I'm shaped by your perceptions
Environment controls
And I've become a ghost of you


FASTLY FREEZING

The fastly freezing span of time
Leaves me crystal clear and placid
Slow extension through the tension
Past the role which I've enacted

Freedom from attatchments climb
Leave the lie of my posession
Prison melts as language falls
Expansion meets its own regression

Second guess and firmly pressing
Gaze a folded pleading stare
Dismember and destroy the thought
Which weakens truth and coldly glares


FOCUSED FURY

A breath a cry of focused fury
Surges through the neuron flame
Our definitions crumble
Night now comes to take the day

Vaguely fainting painted glass
A scattered spark of life
Now trembles in the face of death
Preoccupied with coloured lights

Dissonance to ring so pure
Resonance to make it clear
Oscillate to replicate
The subtle sounds I hear


HAWKLORDS

Tethers tear and try I might
To fight this snare by which I'm bound
I hold so tight to my delight
In prayer for freedom found

There's beauty taught in trials bought
By follies of our fall
I wonder not by which I'm caught
My passion for it all

And deeper still beyond my fill
I gorge till nearly burst
But all the oceans potent flow
Will never quench my thirst

My ears do ring I feel the sting
Of driving fire-frost
I do detatch so I may catch
The joy without the loss


T IN MY I

There's stills some thought
Left inside my battered brain
Enough to tell me
Which of us is truly sane

Your moral panic
Hides you from reality
My open actions
Let me choose who I can be

I like drugs
They make my head feel funny
I like drugs

WIDER LEDGE

In amidst my tortured sleep
I dream I'm burning in the heat
Of captured minds and twisted times
And memories of being free

In waking dread I turn my head
To see what comfort I can find
A softer edge, a wider ledge
A bit of room within my mind

I sit and gaze upon this world
Of shame and shattered dreams of fame
And sharpened shards
Of brightly coloured pearls

I witness pressure pounding
Like a bell resounding
Driving me to madness
As I'm drowning in the world
