Lugubrious 78

Value yourself, yourself again

What would it take?

Have you been told that you are never good enough?

Do you feel that who you are never satisfies?

Do you think that you must change yourself to fit in?

Do you…

You sit there and you scream in pain 

No one hears you but it’s always been the same 

There’s no one but you who can save your life 

Don’t reach for the gun, injection or the knife 

You sit there…

She came home and he hit her in the face

Always controlling he put her in her place 

She never listened now he really wants his space

He spoke to her but she gave him no reply

Always fearful she…

Without meaning

There’s no meaning

If there’s no meaning

There’s no point

Manifesto of an arrogant individual

Somewhat arrogantly 

I believe my mind is different 

Fundamentally 

From many others 

I read to reaffirm this fact 

Having been so often misinterpreted 

I got very annoyed 

Therefore 

I now consciously ensure my own misinterpretation …

Toxins

You’re standing on

I need toxins

I need toxins

To get me through the day 

To get me

To get me through the day

I need toxins

To help me get away 

To help me get away 

I need…

(All) Shrouded in the mist

(On) a day so cloudy 

Broken reflections

Ominous anxiety 

Running upstream

Mountains born free 

Suddenly silence

Lost in ambiguity 

Travelling without sleep

Plain stairs by the sea 

Cold concrete (empty) beach

Futures limping idly 

Faceless…

I shouldn't be thinking this 

I wouldn't be in this mess 

I shouldn't have thought like this 

It's true, I don't care less 

Know what I've done is wrong 

But I feel so insecure 

Know it can't be long 

What'll…

Every broken promise 

I’m dreaming of 

Impatiently waiting for 

Emotionally something more 

Rejected pain of silence 

nothing manifested nothing more 

Every broken promise 

Every broken promise fucks me more

Hold on

Stop it

Fuck off

Cut me down 

I can’t…

My body has grown 

Bigger than my mind

Bow down to me 

Don’t you know?

I’m one of a kind

Toddler

(I’m just a toddler)

Love me

(I’m just another toddler)

My body has grown 

Bigger than my mind

Bow…

Nice of you to forget about me 

You said you'd call before I sleep 

Another empty promise 

Another lie 

Reject push away 

Fears seal our fate 

You wonder why 

I'm distressed 

Argument 

Communicate 

Pain and fear 

Paranoia 

You wonder why …

Think I’m going to cry 

One of us is going to have to die  

And it’s not going to be me  

Is it too late to try? 

Stop the inequality and lies  

Everyone needs to survive  

Not just the few…

I don’t know what you’re doing today

You scare me so I’m running away

I don’t believe a word you say

You wouldn’t trust me anyway

You would guess but no

Reality

You would guess but no

Reality

My choice…

You say to me 

That you are free 

Who's to say 

What that even means? 

I loved you so 

Truth had to go 

Who's to say 

So many clichés 

You say to me 

That you are free 

Who's to say …

Stormont stalls and Belgrade burns 

We want peace but won’t lay down our arms 

Leaving no doubt about our intentions 

So many knife-edged situations 

Racist thugs are on the TV 

Placated by public apathy 

Another violent crime denied 

Slipping away…

Stop it

This is not a nice new story 

Nor is it one to brag to your mates 

This scares me stop it 

I must go now  

Why do you think you can do this to me? 

“When you walked…

Promote the individual  

Appear so beautiful  

Fake the performance  

Do someone else's song  

Thousands of screaming kids  

Ask the people what this is  

Hype the personality  

Makeup covers emptiness  

Oh

Listen to my vocal prowess  

I've got my legs wrapped…

There’s nothing subtle 
In all of these words
No meaning
No nothing at all
Seek understanding
Somewhere else
Here the empty void dissolves
Fall through the clash of vitriol
Feeling nothing else
Now the world is burning brightly
Embers of…

Quantize the beat 

For your pleasure 

Simple rhythm 

Keeps you going 

Reproduce it 

Nothing matters 

World in turmoil 

Block it all out 

Outsource your mind 

Evolve 

Deface 

Leave you behind 

Retune 

Replace 

Do it again 

Endless circles 

Mindless feelings 

Repeat…

This is

What they’ll bring

To you

You’ve lost everything

Free speech

They’re lying to you

Deep state

Just another excuse

Free hate

What can you do?

Deep fake

Take it all from you

The truth

Obscured from view

Their…

I love my strong men

Through the hoax together

Naked on horse back

Bullets don’t touch me

Reimagine the scene

Love the new world order

I demand your respect

As I sell your soul

As I flip it over

All…

I telegraph your excuse

Observe and speculate

Manipulate

Democratize your views

To divide and to reduce

The State

Contrary and seduced

Free speech twisted

In their defence

Offensive charlatans

Grifting violence

Blackmail society

Do their bidding “its fake news”

Dismiss…
