lyrics

Fly me to the target
On the wings of a dart
Fling it into orbit
The revolution
The big push

A kid opens their mouth and the thunder of the north pole cracking in half
Moves through you, under you, and your exquisite flesh and your very life path
In 2005 I wrote these words:

“One
Thing
One thing that I learned in science class today is I
I do cry
I do cry after all”

Fly me to the target
On the wings of a dart
Let us try to get there
before the bull’s eye blows apart
There’s an evil substance in the trench
There’s 10 cows and 1 bull behind the fence

What’s
Wrong
What is wrong with this picture?
Sitting in the waiting room
11 years old
Trying to figure it out
What in this picture doesn’t belong?

See the rows of heads
In the stacks of rooms
Over rows of homes
Faceing gridded streets
Wheels for everyone
Sweets for every child
What in all this wealth is still continuing to
Gape
So
Wide?

The meaning of decadence is to rot from within.
