|
The family blood runs through me this oil in water. |
|
My family blood cut through me clear like teeth made of sauter. |
|
My childhood passed through me smooth like the throat meeting water. |
|
A dental sighs, "son, we're going to have to take your last good set of teeth." |
|
Someone once said, "why do you try to speak when you don't have a mouth?" |
|
You could have been fine, you could have made it. |
|
You could licked the lips of god but you chose the pavement. |
|
Just lay there with your mouth wired shut. |
|
You went too far out on a limb and you fell. |
|
You know your track record shows that it's full of holes, so the next time you try to open your mouth, just don't. |
|
Why do you let them count your teeth while you sleep. |
|
When they will take a few and parade them around like they know you. |
|
I want to be able to sick my fist in your mouth and feel all 32. |
|
You look so beautiful with a full set of teeth and a great mouth to chew. |
|
I know I lose track of you sometimes. |
|
I lose track of myself sometimes. |
|
I lose track of my grammar sometimes. |
|
Dot dot comma dot. |
|
You know I try things six times. |
|
One is for every shot. |
|
How many triggers do we got left in the chamber? |
|
What's to remember? |
|
Lost family. |
|
Lost friends. |
|
Loose ends untied. |
|
The years loop themselves and run over and over again. |
|
You need to buy a piece of this land now, boy. |
|
It's running out quick. |
|
I'd take this |
|
I guess over the other one. |
|
The sun sets on the things that |
|
I should have done, they acted too quick. |
|
Some things need to remain still. |
|
It's that you shouldn't, you couldn't. |
|
It could weigh down your eyes. |
|
As all these walls start to sing, you know you shouldn't, you couldn't. |
|
And then the gums start to bleed. |
|
Don't drink from this fountain, you are liable to drown, and |
|
I might ask this once or twice. |
|
What is this? |
|
This, my gaping mound of wires. |
|
My flapping speakerbox. |
|
Human connection of disconnection. |
|
Why exist? |
|
Why take the risk? |
|
Another day brings you close to your last hour. |
