disillusion
as i leave my rented flat
i realize
i still recognize myself
seems like
i’m getting used to who i used to be
sameness
my sameness makes me sick
more than yesterday
less than tomorrow
more than yesterday
less than tomorrow
seems like
i still recognize myself
i realize
my samess makes me sick
sameness
i’m getting used to who i used to be
but just like mercury, i want to break free
i want to break free
more than yesterday
less than tomorrow
more than yesterday
less than tomorrow

Manifest Hollowness

please step back
don't control
leave my life
my lip alone
see the tragicomedy
where's the knife?
the bat?
unseen
anti-protest zealotry
on winter solstice night
manifest hollowness
on innocent children's day
man hull, man hull, man hull, man hull...

there's lots of space to stand in my ways
when i don't know which way to go
and of all directions to go
i stepped in your stretch home
when i chant what i most likely don't mean
and action speaks so loud that it hurts
i better learn a.s.a.p.
to make up my mind
it's parallel lines
it's parallel lines that will never meet
follow your line
i'll follow mine
hand in hand

X Days a Week

4 and a half hours a day
22 hours a week
88 hours a month
a thousand 56 hours a year
it’s a lot of time I have to pay
to keep a place where i can lay my head
i need a roof above my bed
it doesn’t matter how i feel
a hard day’s night, eight
days a week
i need a roof above my bed
one and a half days a week
six days a month
72 days a year
more than two months a year
it’s a lot of time I have to pay
to keep a place where i can lay my head
i need a roof above my bed
it doesn’t matter how i feel
a hard day’s night, eight
days a week
i need a roof above my bed

Tired Tomorrow
02:26

If i go to bed early
i won’t be tired tomorrow
if i go to bed early
i won’t be tired tomorrow
and i get bored
wide awake, wide awake
why should i be wide awake,
why should i be wide awake
i prefer to be tired
it makes me feel wholehearted
i prefer to be tired
i need to feel whole-hearted
or i get bored
wide awake, wide awake
why should i be wide awake,
why should i be wide awake
i don’t wanna lay me down, because
i don’t wanna get up
i love the life i live
but i don’t like my job
so
why should i be wide awake
why should i be wide awake

not to ground
not to lay down all thought
and if the carnal's clutter
stick to the ungodly
by my only heart:
i'm a fighter
i breathe in odd lots
i shall not live too much
b
reak a bad habit
for every good
by my only heart:
i'm a fighter
