Like Her Before

In fields of straw we're raised around a wolf
Even though we're young and cannot see the fence yet
And I withdraw, I freeze here with the lambs
Like her before
The fear it is rising, I've got to go
A wolf is arriving again
Stares at me writhing, a centrefold
Oh
Like her Before
Oh
If I listen close I hear her voice again now
Or my worst fears
Oh
She screams at me to listen up closely
She calls for rising fire
The grit it is climbing
I want to yell
A wolf is arriving again
Stare at him writhing, and breath the smell
Oh
Like her after
Today we set a fire
We go up higher
And kill the dog on the straw
We lock our hands and can't help but smile and watch smoke rise, rise
She calls us surprising and says she's tired
It feels like she's dying again
Stares at us smiling, she's all inspired
Screams out loud I knew I'd find out, outside the flame
Get out the field
Get out past the fence
Get out where your ashes are wild
Now you can feel
Way out past the fence
See if you can heal anymore
And you don't look back to who you were before

I wanna feel the void
And feel the low
And feel the spaciousness inside our souls
Itchin for escapism, was swipin, nil, oblivion
Avoid energy vampires
Push and shove and rub yr shoulders
Ushered boulders, pressure to destroy
Senseless pride
Don't you even know the Jones'?
What you own's not what you own
Yr poised
Who's yr buyer?
Maybe i've been placed inside a race
But it's not mine, i don't enjoy
Empty prize
Gimme simply sitting
Breathing in and out
Feel like whispering
Why'd i gotta shout?
Maybe not seducin
Not takin that route
You want me producin
But i am allowed allowed allowed loud loud to to to
To do dick all, to do dick all..
Tototo do dick all, to do dick all
To to to do dick all, to do dick all
Call me lazy, a waste of time, i don't mind
To do dick all, to do dick all..
To to to do dick all, to do dick all tototo do dick all,to do dick all
Cos there's enough stuff round and round round and.. ohh..
Like a kitty, pause on life
Oh, tucked up in a ball, just fine
Oh, baby small is just the right amount
Is this family a corporation,
Our relationship's are forced
To compete high
Will the bonus come?
Will c.e.o. tell you "bingo, you won the love!"
Ask them why
This, my one and only glory, is rewriting my story
From a source i'm inspired by
Emptiness it fills my hand, there's promise when i don't demand
I chose, embraced the coz
Gimme simply sitting
Breathing in and out
Feel like whispering why'd i gotta shout?
Maybe not seducin
Not takin that route
You want me producin but i am allowed allowed allowed loud loud to to to
To do dick all, to do dick all..
To to to do dick all, to do dick all
Tototo do dick all, to do dick all
Call me lazy, a waste of time, i don't mind
To do dick all, to do dick all..
To to to do dick all, to do dick all
I wanna feel the void
And feel the low
And feel the spaciousness inside our souls

What If We Found It?

I’ve been stuck inside for 4
weeks or has it been 30 years don’t know
Am I losing everything or am lost and falling down below
Don’t die don’t live don’t die don’t live
Don’t live don’t die don’t live don’t die
What if we found it while trapped inside
What if we found her while trapped inside
The things I thought were real before are far away so what’s
real anymore
The things I thought were in
my head are closer now I guess I won’t ignore
Look high look low look high
look low
Look low look high look low
look high
What if we found us while
trapped inside
What if we found her while
trapped inside
Skin skin skin skin skin all
you think about is
Him her them him her them
him her skin
Skin skin skin skin all you
think about is
Him her them him her them
him her skin

Down, Down, Down

You’re in a car and I should go in
I’m not easy going
Bitter and you know it
Big tits in the summer
Toast with extra butter
I could put my toe in
bodies getting closer
fall right down
You're in a car and I am floating
Clammy hands on clothing
Underwear is showing
Cherries in the river
Forearms get the shivers
Wet earth in the morning
I say that you’re boring
You’re not though
sound, sound, sounds, not made before
all through this ride, i feel life more
we're going down, down, down, sink through the floor
your warm eyes cry towards the shore
free flying down a hill,
feels like the dirt is magic,
spreading the unravelling laughter,
wet concrete, wet underwear,
little movies are everywhere,
think i saw the moss start floating, she
lost her breath, so i'll catch it for her,
fucking in the branches of a tree,
hands not washed so i smell her on me
