I feel the top of the roof come off, kill everybody there as I'm watching all the stars burn out, trying to pretend that I care.
But I didn't, no-one ever does, and I would, no-one ever will
Can't you see it's all flown out of my hands and our clothes are all too often ripped and our teeth are all too often gnashed and it lasts as long as it possibly can but I just don't accept this.
I just don't accept this at all.

“You’ve just heard about Johnny. He’s been causing discipline problems at Pennhurst. So they thought they would send him to Q2. We thought you would like to see where Johnny lives. Johnny, can you talk?"
"Yes."
"Do you like it here at Pennhurst?"
"No."
"Why not John?"
"Um. There’s…"
"Let me ask you this John. Do you remember living anywhere except Pennhurst?"
"No."
- Dan And Tim, Reunited By Fate
I feel so designed, so made to know,
that there is no place in time in backwards-flow.
And this is all there is.
And I close my eyes, and I’m not depressed, or anything.
I just close my eyes: this is all there is.
I feel so designed, so made to know.

[Verse 1]
These atoms are liars
They do not realize, and we can't blame them
Art as a means of escape, they don't see the down-side
And that's what takes them
Out on the floor
One stretches out its hands
Into the small of a back
- Destinos
The hardest spot to sleep in is always home
As soon as I get cut up and all is gone
And so you are treated to all of your cliches
You're tired and comfortable in your oh-so-boring phase
I'm doing it now, at least I know am, at least I caught myself before I sent this out
I'm doing it now, at least I know am, at least I caught myself before I sent this out
Into this stupid world that doesn't give a damn
- Hunter
Hunter, I'm laid out on the forest floor
arrows in my back and sides
down among the leaves and stones
you can wear my skin as armor
you can eat my flesh and bones
leave nothing that is needed
all I have is yours
And I'll give myself up to your sharpened edges
- I Don't Love
I don't want to live like this, Lord
I don't want to live at all
I don't want to make this face anymore
but if I don't, that's all
I don't want to live like this anymore
I don't want to live at all
I don't want to make this face anymore
but if I don't, that's all
- Telefony
If science is half the man it says it is
Then I can build it
The machine that snaps
All of time in half
I can break its back
I can break its back
I can build a door
- the big gloom
Slipping in and out of an ice bath
no warmth, no life without
it’s too much
my arms, my legs are wood
unconscious trees
with roots deep in the ground
we will all be out, soon
an ocean ringed with tile
- The Future
These atoms are liars
They do not realize, and we can’t blame them
art as a means of escape, they don’t see the down-side
and that’s what takes them
out on the floor
one stretches out it’s hands
into the small of a back
and as they circle the room, as they circle the floor
- The Icon and the Axe
I am never going to love another soul,
even if I tried to.
And I am never going to live another life,
even if I’d die to.
And I am never going to rest my weary head,
or fold these arms together.
And I am never even going to give a shit
if life goes on forever.
- Waiting For Black Metal Records To Come In The Mail
What has become of all of us, all ceilings, all skies
is that, the stars can swim a thousand dark miles
before they ever see the floor again
with their backs against the wall on these last days
but then, we knew that would happen anyway
you drop that pitch-black pall
over us, one and all, again
to propel your national machines
- Woe Unto Us
They are kneeling on my back in Connecticut.
And I watch for signs, but I just hurt my neck.
I believe, believe, that you’re the God of Abraham.
And you’ll strike me dead, but in the end, what the fuck do I care?
We can never be alone.
There’s a restlessness in our bones.
Because what if decide
that my life has been a waste?
