Knocking 03:02
Knocking on the front door I’ll open it up Are we uniting? Two minds involved… Do I sign for what you gave, Do I sign at all? Wait at the apartment For a package to get Are we dreaming? Dreaming bell sounds… Envelope, fit it all Fit in what you can Some say I’m entering a new phase Quite changed, darkening And limping away But in a way Taller, virile as I’ll ever be And through it all help others when they need An assisting force, help is coming as we’re speaking Moving through a line, through the public sphere Set outside Welcome to the new town Come figure it out By the water And by the green space By the scene behind the scenes I.e. my friends and me Treading through the water With detritus of mine Can’t believe it Can’t be replaced Can’t behave the same way In a different space

Kaplan 02:32
One way to go back out No way to go back in If it knows you by the reflex Maybe you can love it back in a way First it was a pigment, Then it was in our skin Then we scrubbed it in a rigour We couldn’t feel all the benefits of it Hit the case Make it to the center and proliferate Through a sign, a newer sign, Teach it in a new way Have a talk Teasing through a part of it that educates I can talk Searching for a lost strength Then we had a good time After we accept it Maybe we could even enjoy it If we couldn’t figure out something else One way to go back out No way to go back in If we couldn’t figure out ourselves Before it figured us out

See Saw 03:07
Leaning on a building midday Living a lie Came out to stay this way till night And in your eyes we see your narratives thrive You’re building something up inside See, Saw We saw you there Swallow the stranger Pick up a favor No choice Name any boy Making his dumb noise And in your productive season Easy come sighs Production ceases, Then revives The newborn choice factories Are born tonight, Will see their mothers, and will cry

Machine 02:08
Machine Such an attitude, such a swing And a new thing Such a friend, you’re a brand new friend It swings me side to side And it’s always on my side All my mellow and my hiding states Making sure the dream survives And we’re okay Raking through the old Battery Park In a showcase Habitations in the ground It swings me side to side And it’s learning more each night For a moment, I had died It reflected more than I could think about Machine, Oh machine you make me so green And so complete Interested in all my needs It shakes me from some side And it plays with perspectival divide So illusions come, but I don’t mind It can’t believe that I hit the bottle hard In ways I can’t believe each time

In a chastity seatbelt I’ve been driving ‘round all day The jalopy indeed smells And I know all the girls’ names I know all their names Daddy, don’t leave us with mother machine She doesn’t know I’ve been driving Such a fast car In a Japanese diesel I’ll be cruising ‘round main drag In a chastity seatbelt The rearview makes me sad I can’t tell you how sad In a chastity seatbelt I don’t want nobody knowing my name In a chastity seatbelt I’ll be cruising ‘round all day All day

In the Round 03:20
Joy approaching New weather blowing Insane release Parents smoking Outside the school Their little fools Are probably growing For the weekend, Up to the country Had to escape Close friend’s family’s estate Where the water is good The mom is good, the dad is good, Constantly misunderstood Mirror making, Not always glass Sometimes a string, A burl of words that can last Stern rejection Of an offer A perfectly calm and complete offer Standing on the same ground You stand the same On the same ground

Apparition 02:02
Look at you, You knew you’d find me invincible Only my silence will live for good It’s how I’m gonna get them back How you chew-- You chew the fine grain so difficult Okay, my silence impeccable To the sounds that a stranger makes And I kill songs… Look what the weather brought… Out from the depths of earth… Pets in a shirt… Happening, Happening all through the checkered night Divided space into black and white And the things we all collect Casual, They’re making capital fun for us The pleasures once were so casual, But I feel now I need a friend And I need guns… I can’t let that fucker run… Freeze, boy, don’t wear me out… She’s checking me out… I’m an apparition… Because I’m kissing you… Knowing I will disappear… And I’ll envision you

Waking 03:07
When we wake up in the morning we know who we are Aware of what we dreamt of, clinging on to it But I have to get up and you wouldn’t believe How hard it is to get excited, or move And a choice energy resource is Listening to the most violent songs I know Because I don’t play no games with anyone I closely watch your face to see if I will get fucked Or rewarded somehow For being on your team When we wake up in the morning we’re dominantly Horny and frustrated but I take a sip of tea But I have to get up and you wouldn’t believe How hard it is to trust in your friends but if you don’t, who will trust in them? Oh, my interests span so far Beyond the high and the low Searching, sucking

In Kids 03:11
You may call me morbid, You may call me sick, But when i find out that people kind of like me, I love it I deny myself the basic needs Because I want to see God And make sure that he sees me When I see him so he’ll believe in kids You may call me morbid with my politics But when my body is done developing You can have it, it’s all yours I deny myself the basic needs Because I want to see God And make sure that he sees me When I see him so he’ll believe in kids He’ll believe in the fact of us
