staring down with my bleeding eyes
gave a fuck, swear I really tried
letting go, it’s how I feel alive
let me die under red lights
wings of fire, so divine
in the red sun, even angels die
rituals of love under red lights
endless nights under red lights
wings of fire, so divine
in the red sun, watching angels die
gold wings
tie-dye Robin’s
guilt-ridden in my True Religions
truth hidden - that’s my true religion
bad dreams
neverending
didn’t mean to leave them burning
my god, I’m a lesson in a fucking sermon
GOD wins
got me wishing I could be forgiven
praying for the sick ones I abandoned
the sun went down - He didn’t listen
angels came in darkness
radiant in empathy
and all I had to give
was relentless misery
burning wings above the lies
everything I fear, under red lights

primordial
esta sangre caída
ni pensé en cómo me dolió
fue un devoción
pa’ acompañarte hasta Belen
fue una gran bendición
y aquí estaré
en la entrega y el camino de Dios
me emprendió
a una posada pa’ tu amor
como el peregrino
en laberinto de reunión
como Abrám
pa’ la cima se subió
en esta entrega
y en la llegada amaneció
nuestro amor

in the crystals
see contortions
of the neighbors
lying broken
bloody angels
giving sermons
wearing faces
they’re stolen
melt skin off
with syringes
giving sinners
death addiction
bloody angels
on a mission
making martyrs
crucifixion
here they come a-marching to the beat of a gun
skeleton kings riding out in the sun
crooked and cackling as they observe
fields of famine they gifted the earth
here they come a-marching to the beat of a gun
skeleton kings writing names in the blood
bleached and bedazzled in blood-spattered gold
cutting you open - a sight to behold

tonight I crawl alone to find the old you
where’d you go?
I found a way to distance
self
pain
angst
from you
so where’d you go?
that’s my pain, I can’t go home
it welcomes us at night
and so, take my pain
make it rain
pain is all I have
maggots in my veins
baby, no fear
you make it stop
pain, girl, you know
pain gang, it’s slow
and when it goes
I can’t go on
I can’t go home
pain is in my eyes
the roses I had given you at Sinai
when we come together as the seven metals it’s like nothing else
torment of the body and the soul
a love so elemental
purify my soul
calcination over coal
little maggots in the soil
turn my blood into pure oil
come and join me
pay the toll
take the white rose
and take the red rose
and make it gold
on and on, I feel the pain; it’s slow
down in my veins my heart broke
it’s broke
I know

Homecoming
04:34
|
|||
|
you come back home just to be in my arms
you left me broken, so torn apart
I’ve been learning lessons from Judy’s mistake
Punch is about to regret this day
limb from limb you grasp my name
reach for the phone - can’t be saved
dust covered attic, bound to the frame
wrap you in a thousand thread count sheets
and warmth from the flames
I remember you brushing hair off my face
in biology class on dissection day
I sliced my chest open, gave you my beating heart
then you say you want space - I know where to start
space from your skin as I first draw your blood
space from your burst lungs; I carve, they flood
you spout I’m a bitch - well you’re a frog on a tray
chop you into parts more interesting than your efforts to pray
dig for your heart, I want my pound of flesh
red runs down my hands like Lady MacBeth
crimson eyes
hands quake
pour the gas, strike the match
leaving now would be a shame
tears roll down
a smile curls
sweat from heat creating pearls
diluting poison in my brain
I pull myself close to you
so I can stare you in the eyes
ashes and smoke fill my lungs
flesh eaten, skin fried

I’m haunted by the man that I used to be
I laid him in the tomb with some Louis V
he answered all my prayers on the rosary
he made me feel so little looking over me
I was stillborn looking up
my neck and spine in spirals
the moon just so out of touch
that’s why I want to reach for the stars so much
feel like I was born in a different galaxy
that’s why they call me starseed
cuz I wanna fuck this whole world up
third eye opening up
burning out like my last cigarette
this world’s just too much for me
I don’t wanna lose my touch
my other five senses feeling all my regrets
when I die bury my in my Versace
let me see Donatella when she comes for me
I hold my necklace like a rosary
asking if this is who I’m supposed to be

Hush
04:09
|

|
hush now - got no motivation
hush now - let them burn the nation
hush now - silent celebration
hush now - die in isolation
gasoline on my Robin’s jeans
getting blood on my Chrome Hearts rings
looking good when they burn with me
gasoline in the hands of the meek
spilling blood of the bourgie all week
red skies, burning spree
gasoline, and it smells so sweet
pouring down, down, down to my feet
let their enemies burn with me
gasoline to my hopes and dreams
that’s the way it’s supposed to be
feeling free when they’re burning me

drinks up, blood cup
can you fill it up?
guide the blade and watch me spill it out
drink up, no luck
demons fill me up
and I know my day is coming round
wouldn’t it be nice if you found me
crying alone in the morning fog
grieving red reflections
give me a reason to end it all
I can’t feel a fucking thing and I like it that way
put salt in the dirt and tears in the grave
goblet’s gold, red’s ornate
an iron taste, a silver blade
do you know me better than I know me?
do you love me just enough to hate me?
do you care I’m slaughtering the old me?
do you love me just enough to end me?

plagues of locusts coming down, reckoning
swarming, bringing misery, misery
merciful Ophanim spinning round, beckoning
all your splattered fluids drizzling, drizzling down
GOD on high brought sky to ground, reckoning
feel His love though misery, misery
something’s in the fire spinning round, beckoning
watch as all your fluids go drizzling, drizzling down
and it came to pass, that when He had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying,
‘take fire from between the whirlwind, from between the cherubim’
then he went in, and stood beside the Ophanim

i am pain
as i am in pain
i am life
i am in life
i am love
as i am in love
i am death
i am all that follows
when you breathe through me
i feel your presence
don’t look at me
don’t say my name
or you’ll leave this world
and be with me
i found myself drowning in waters i created
my own body and soul laid in Gehenna
palm fronds in olive groves, from the soil
has the world, my love, already forgotten me?
when you move towards me
i cling to your presence
when i’m held in your arms the pain finally numbs
when we kiss every breath shared is holy
you lift me up, you believed in me
in those moments i felt eternity
once i've fallen apart, you'll forgive all the lies
one last kiss - let me feel your mercy
and then my consciousness dissolves
in endless shimmering glissandi

la agua está viva, ¿quien la dejó?
yo te remendaba
yo te remendé
yo te hice un remiendo
no te lo quité
no pude guardar la albura
yo voy desandando hasta que por fin
yo me remendaba
yo me lo quité
con la agua viva
yo me remendé
perdido en entornos amantes
mi ternura, mi amor
nuestro sagrario
pero las cucarachas se están entrando
Maria, Maria
¿la puedes proteger?
¿esto es como será, esto es como seré?

i remember getting lost in church corridors
as a child wandering through hallways
watching light pour through fiery windows
just praying someone would save me
i remember getting lost in the suburbs
as i drove into the city to see you
always in awe of the depths of this world
yet somehow we’d met one another
i remember the pain of getting lost in conversation
wistfully adorning these outstretched moments
with the weight of their ephemerality
eden was wherever we found it
from dust to dust - something tears me away
there were bodies in the steeple, buried inside
in the suburbs, a terrible sickness
our sacred garden we’d furnished together
et in arcadia ego

I take the sword
it leads, and I follow the corpses I leave on the road
lost among the wreckage we call blessings of the Lᴏʀᴅ
you'd have been the one to guide me home
had I only known
I relinquished all control
I listened when He whispered low
Jesus is alive, He told me where to go
He told you something else, babe
and now I'm all alone
shooting bullets from my handgun
make my wishes come true
I was the thorn stuck in your palm
now I'm whole, and it hurts you
it hurts me too
wash my sins
falling in floating gardens
tell your heart you'll never harden
tell your body you will bleed
we are human gods
have faith, trust and believe
pull your weeds, trim your trees
bloom and make room
for your arrival to the garden of eden
I fucking did as i was told
and everything I reaped, He sowed
Jesus told a lie, He's making me atone
I know you've gotta go, babe
I know I'm not alone
all the days I spent
treating you like kin
let’s learn a lesson
don’t let it go to waste
i’m on my way
i’ve learned from my mistakes

The Body and Blood

this is my body
I give it up for you
baby son in babylon
rejoice, rejoice
for your god is dead and gone
if you eat my flesh, our sins we'll mend
and still you spit me out again
blissful in your arms
forgetting I knew heaven
blessed shall he be who repays us
with what you have done
to us
I burned
our garden by the sea
my offering
I burned
scattered in the wind
into your dreams again

red skies coloring the ocean
last night we split our bodies open
in love
there’s nothing out here but sands of our devotion
the sacrifice of the giving tree
in time, we’ll both absolve emotions
with blood
place your hands in mine
dripping fingertips
echoes of a life
seal them with your lips
limbs we hold up high
bodies in the mist
left ourselves to die
with nothing but a kiss
red skies coloring the ocean
last night dancing with emotion
undone
hell’s gates have opened and still the land is frozen
from the cold dead stare that you gave to me
this time, the creeping sense of anguish
is love
