High, another high, another time that I failed to resist temptation
Lie, another lie, another lie that I told myself in the dead of night
God, another god, another god that lives in my mind, in my mind
Lie, another lie, another time that I failed to live right
Live right
Live right
Lie, another lie, another time that I lied to myself in the dead of night
High, another high, another time that I failed to resist temptation
God, another god, another god that lives in my mind, in my mind
High, another high, another time that I failed to resist
How many times?
How many times?
How many times?
How many times?
How many times will I make this mistake?
How many times will I lie?
Lie
Dead of night
Dead of night, lie
How many times?
How many times?
I won’t ask you for your money or your life
I can hardly make amends
There is something for meaning but no room inside my head
Now I spent my savings on tombstones for the dead
Live right
I wanna live right
I wanna live right

Feel the water, rising faster
As it pulls you away, from light of day
The fortune teller, knows your name
She read your life, in the palm of your hand
Feel the water, rising faster
As it pulls you away, from light of day
The fortune teller, knows your name
She read your life, in the palm of your hand
Feel the water, rising faster
As it pulls you under, and you’ve got no lungs to breathe
And the darkness in the depths
Reminds you of a place you swore you’d never be
In the eyes of the yellow king
Feel the water, rising faster
As it pulls you away, from light of day
The fortune teller, knows your name
She read your life, in the palm of your hand
All alone here, you search for a saving grace
But your arms are heavy, you let go succumb to fate
And in the water, you see the glowing eyes
A doorway opens, the king welcomes your demise
God welcomes me
In my dreams
I am the king
Underdeep
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Who the fuck are you to identify me?
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Who the fuck are you to identify me?
God welcomes me
In my dreams
Beneath the seas of glory
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Who the fuck are you to identify me?
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Who the fuck are you to identify me?
Identify me
Identify me
Identify me
The fuck are you, bitch?
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Depraved man that I am
Fuck off
Identify me, go ahead
Identify me, try it
Till she fell in love with the one who sealed her fate
Till she fell in love with the gun I used as bait
Till she fell in love with the one who sealed her fate
Till she fell in love with the gun I used as bait
Till she fell in love, till she fell, till she fell
Till she fell in love with the one who sealed her fate
Leroy’s last waltz ends tonight
Leroy’s last waltz ends tonight
Till she fell in love with the one with the gun who stole her fate
Till she fell in love with the one with the gun who locked her away
Till she fell in love with the one with the gun who stole her face
Till she fell in love with the one with the gun who locked her away
Leroy’s last waltz ends tonight
Leroy’s last waltz ends tonight
Leroy’s last waltz ends tonight
Leroy’s last waltz ends tonight
Till she fell in love with the one with the gun who stole her face
Till she fell in love with the one with the gun who locked her away
As you face the void, be sure to avert your eyes
Baby’s first steps into nothingness, it’s gonna tear you up inside
And as you face the void, be sure to avert your eyes
Baby’s first steps into nothingness, it’s gonna tear you up inside
As you face the void, be sure to avert your eyes
Baby’s first steps into nothingness, it’s gonna tear you up inside
My love, my darling
My love, my darling
To be born you must die
My love, my darling
My love, my darling
It’s gonna tear you up inside
It’s gonna tear you up I know it
Just you wait
My love, my darling

The air is still, the pines smell nice
I’m with my friends, for one more night
She fills my cup, another glass of wine
I tell her we’ll be fine, but inside I am scared
To live a life, in just three days
I pray that it’s enough, I think about what’s lost
The night grows long, she holds me close
We dream of Madrid, and then I wake
I’ll just think about it more
About the beauty of art and nature and life and the people you meet
And the boundless particulate transference and transformations that spontaneously shimmer and pop
With the quickly passing infinite moment of comparison
Your life and mine in this moment I see it all
I’ve lived yours, I’ve suffered and loved not like you but literally as you
In this moment we align and our souls meet above our bodies in secret laughter
A smile and a nod, just a glance and I’m enraptured
Totally forcefully here and meeting you with your eyes
I only wish to hold this sweet contact forever because we’ve loved and will love again
I know you're in there I know the you in there because you know the me in here
Hello, my love it’s you again and again and again
Hello my love
Hello my love, it’s you again
Hello my love
It’s you again
Here we are playing with creation
Playing with the lines bordering reality and whatever else is out there
We hold hands across the line
That’s how it is when you show yourself through the hand of a human and manifest as beauty’s eyes
Hello my love, it’s you again
I have no questions
You’ve quieted my questing mind
You’ve cooled the fire inside
You are the fire, you are the inside
The air is still, the pines smell nice
I’m with my friends, for just one night
She fills my cup, another glass of wine
I tell her we’ll be fine, but inside I am scared
To live a life, in just three days
I pray that it’s enough, I think about what’s lost
The night grows long, my hand grows coarse
We dream of Madrid, and then I wake
We dream of Madrid, and then I wake
We dream of Madrid, and then I wake
And then I wake
And then, and then I wake
And then I wake

The red sun setting through a milky haze, I have no questions
The stillness of day’s end passing duty over to night, dogs barking, I have no questions
Bird’s melody, upper frequency of droning insects, car tires on gravel
I have no questions, all seems correct and as it should
But I can’t help and comprehend this as all some vivid scheme
Some kind of obtuse lie
Some way of making me fall down on my knees for the thousandth time
And everyday things don't go as they’re planned
Things don't look as they seem
My mind can't comprehend what it means to be
Smell the humid air, drink in the luscious green textures
Ethereal sky, unearthly beauty in the tallness of a tree
Vines creeping up in a perfect spiral
Unbelievable is the word that comes to mind, believe it
This is it
This is the inconsolable day, this is the apple to slice into pieces
This is the divine, eternal, endless, endless in its impunity
Endless in its always ending
But I can’t help and comprehend this as some vivid scheme
Some kind of obtuse lie
Some way of making me fall down on my knees for the thousandth time
And everyday things don't go as they’re planned
Things don't look as they seem
I just can't comprehend what it means to be
Alive! X1000
Endless in its always ending
Endless in its sheer awe
Endless in its always ending
Endless in its eternal beauty
Endless in the delight that opens your eyes wide, wide, wide
Endless in the way it doesn't let you close them ever again
Awe that burns, awe that inspires
Awe that becomes manifesting physically in the pores of my skin
Into whatever and whoever it is my experience permits
Endless in its always ending
Endless in its sheer awe
Endless in the way it burns your skin
Endless in the way it makes you alive
And I say, enough of the rhymes and rhythm
I say, enough references to the past
And I say, no more caricatures pretensions or expectations or models or ideas
Let the hot wax mold me into this moment forever
Let the golden hue entice me into existing fully now
But every time, I turn away
I’m pulled back in, to false reality
But everytime, I quiet down
I’m forced to look into the eyes of sorrow
But every time, it’s every time
Every time, again and again, I writhe in sorrow

I’ll make pretend that you are who you think you are, if you make pretend
If you make pretend that I am who I think I am
I’m sick of these games
Look at me with those eyes, look at me one more time
Look at me with those eyes, shut the fuck up bitch, I don’t even know you
Look at me with those eyes, look at me one more time, I’m an animal
Look at me with those eyes, look at me one more time
Yo, I don’t even know you
I’ll make pretend that you are who you think you are, if you make pretend
If you make pretend that I am who I think I am
I’m so sick of this shit
I’ll make pretend that you are who you think you are, if you make pretend
If you make pretend that I am who I think I am
I’m sick of these games
Look at me with those eyes, look at me one more time
Look at me turn back time, look at me with those eyes, shut the fuck up bitch
I don’t even know you
Look at me with those eyes, look at me one more time
Look at me with those eyes, look at me turn back time
I don’t even know you
Yo
This song was inspired by inspired by a conversation
A conversation where I was implied to be something I am not
Yo, you don’t even know me
Look at me with those eyes, look at me one more time
Look at me with those eyes, shut the fuck up bitch
I don’t even know you
Look at me with those eyes, look at me one more time
Try to pry with your disguise, look at me one more time
Look at me one more time
Don’t waste your time trying to know me
I know pain more than anything
Look at me with those eyes, look at me one more time
Look at me with a new pair of eyes, try and see through this disguise
I know your game, I know what you're up to now
I can see it in your eyes
I know your game, I know what you want from me
You’re not gonna get it, alright?
Turn around, go home
You’re not gonna get it
I am the friendship bracelet inside your mocha pot
I am inconceivable
I am far away, I am untouchable
I am the God that you wish for
Fate that you don't know
Know what you ask for
Know what you wish for
I am the wind and the trees and the sky
You're never gonna touch me you're never gonna catch me
Look in my eyes when you tryna fuck
Look in my eyes I can tell what you want
Look in my eyes I can tell what you want
Look in my eyes I can tell you're not gonna get shit
Cause I am untouchable
I am inconceivable
I am untouchable
I know I’m what you want
I’ll make pretend that you are who you think you are, if you make pretend
If you make pretend that I am who I think I am
I’m so sick of these games
I’ll make pretend that you are who you think you are, if you make pretend
If you make pretend that I am who I think I am
I’m sick of this shit
Look at me with those eyes, look at me one more time
Look at me with those eyes, shut the fuck up bitch
I don’t even know you
Look at me with those eyes, look at turn back time, I’m an animal
Look at me with those eyes, look at me, turn back time, I’m an animal
I’m an animal
I’m an animal
Look at me with those eyes
Look at me one more time
I know what you want
I know what you want
I know what you want
Look at me
Look at me through this disguise
Why can’t you just be like me?
Why can’t you just
Just be like me?
Why can’t you just be like me?

Watching the fog gently roll down the countryside
The tops of the trees obscured by mist
From my vantage point on the peak of pine mountain
I think I know what it means to be truly alive
This is a thought I know I've had a million times
But there's something beautiful in forgetting
And walking back down through the wood between the worlds
I think I know what it means to be truly alive
And desperately I'll try to find the words to describe
What I know is indescribable
Watching my life flash by and trying to make out a rhyme
When I know it's already perfect poetry
In my dreams
It’s a cool morning in July
And it’s the first morning of your life
And everything seems as it should
Everything is in its right place
The ground is soggy the leaves are wet
And there is only the gentle upwards and downwards movements of the breath
Here in the foothills of the mountain
There is no inside and there is no out
There is only just now
And all that has been given and received
And all that has been given and received
The upwards and downwards movements of the breath
All that has been given and received
All that has been given and received
All that has been given and received
There is no inside and there is no out
The gentle upwards and downwards movement of the breath
It’s all just a shadow now
It’s all just a shadow now
It’s all just a shadow now
It’s all just a shadow now
To the vivid reality of this moment, at play, beckoning, beckoning, beckoning..
