Recoiled message, words looping playing in my head

I can't help but feel stuck inside a brick house with no windows...

Devil in the Details

There’s a devil in my back 

I carry this place in my heart

Bread and wine for everyone and me 

Oh mirage, mirage, oh mirage, mirage 

Without love in my heart I was quick to judge 

Honey runs through your veins 

It’s a fine line to cross but i’d do the same for you

[nosoulbackguarantee]

Been working on this tune.

Spades

The cat delivered in the mail, 

a bottoms up and sunshine down 

but I don’t know that I want 

she doesn’t care much for spades 

everything is flowing by and by 

plans are scattered in the floor 

don’t be surprised when the ship is sinking 

but you don’t know what you want 

fuck the fantasy in your head and fuck your prayers 

you’ll only listen to hear you want, you’ll only listen to what you want 

cause you just don’t know who I am 

I don’t care much for spades

everything flowing through and through

The plans are scattered in your brain

I don’t care for your things

I just don’t care about your bets

fuck the fantasy in your head and fuck your prayers

When you lose all bets down weep

Raining Daggers

Breathless mirror can you tell, a lie for me? 

my intuition is shy, a parallel to the muses 

A weird feeling spinning in your mind, don’t get yourself in trouble

run home...

Nameless faces, resolve, and show me who I am

Faceless people, reside, and show me im no one

it’s raining daggers 

Friendly stranger, will you point the safest route 

A sharp feeling, stabbing in your back, don’t get yourself in trouble, stay safe

the longer that I stare, the stranger that gets, to me 

Nameless faces, resolve, and show me who I am

Faceless people, reside, and show me im no one

you’re nobody, you’re no one

it’s raining daggers

Tangents

Now I can prove to everyone 

that I went under the sea 

I went under ....

Now I can see, but you can’t be said 

that I fell under your spell

I went under .... 

We’ll go off on tangents 

we’ll speak forever 

Now I can say but it won’t heard 

that I saw it fall underneath 

saw it fall .... 

[nosoulbackguarantee]

Certain Parallels

Breathless mirror 

can you tell a lie for me? 

My intuition is shy 

a parallel to the muses

a weird feeling pulsing in your mouth 

don’t get yourself in trouble 

run home, run home, run home 

don’t be stagnant dear

you’re such a feeler 

[nosoulbackguarantee]

A Permanent Freeze

If this won’t change your mind, nothing will 

a permanent freeze, a moment you can’t back up 

cut your losses, cut your losses here 

if you were to say, we won’t be coming back that way 

cut your loss, cut your losses 

if you were see, all the times that I tried

im not surprised, to see that grin stretching out 

[nosoulbackguarantee]

Furnace Keeper

Wrap around my tiny heart, as the wings fall off into the abyss 

and I can’t sleep at night 

mechanical monoxide, breathing, I think im turning into a machine 

furnace keeper 

SAFEGUARD WATCHING AS WE DRIFT ASLEEP, AND ALL THE DOORS CAME CRASHING DOWN, AND WE JUST CAN’T ESCAPE

Watch him burn in his lantern, watching steam killer pressure 

as we congregate 

panoramic, black and white, peering in all’s business, overdrafting conclusions, peering in all’s business 

i’m tired of it all 

MANICFUCK WATCHING AS WE DRIFT ASLEEP, AND ALL THE DOORS CAME CRASHING DOWN, AND WE JUST CAN’T ESCAPE

SAFEGUARD WATCHING AS WE DRIFT ASLEEP, AND ALL THE DOORS CAME CRASHING DOWN, AND WE JUST CAN’T ESCAPE

[nosoulbackguarantee]

Homegrown

Everytime I close my eyes 

I see those doll eyes 

easing me off the brake

I don’t want to step on your shoes, let me no choice now 

homegrown nightmares 

everyday I drive off the edge, and you still sit there 

go home, go home, go home

Complexity isn’t complex

Complexity is a reflection of a perceivers ability to take into consideration a large amount of variables and large amount of possibilities. It’s not actually a reflection of the complexity of the world, universe or of reality itself. Meaning that the universe isn’t trying to look apparently complex. It simply exists the way it does and the phenomenons happen completely independent of thought or understanding. We know this because regardless of wether we are aware of it or not, there is an innumerable amount of processes that are keeping us alive and are constituting the universe. DNA is replicating, RNA being shuttled out of your nucleus for transcription, gravity is acting on your body, earth spinning around the sun in an elliptical pattern, electrons dancing around orbitals in your atoms, neurons firing to help you make sense out of all this. But this isn’t a reflection of a universe trying to prove itself to anything or anyone by it’s “complexity” the universe exists and it is irreverent, then come in our brains who in a very limited fashion can kind of approximate the world that exists outside of them by using limited language, models and theories that fall short, analogies that are incomplete, and that’s about as best we can do. We can only approach what reality looks like in an abstract fashion. But we make the mistake that complexity is a thing, it’s not, it’s a relative thing that is proportional to our ability to understand the world and defined by the fact of our inability to hold too many variables and possibilities in our minds. I think this is an important point made when thinking about our purpose and about our place in the universe. The illusion of complexity is a facade that helps us rationalize that there is an objective meaning to a universe,  and that complexity is a somehow a barrier to a greater truth about our purpose, that somewhere beyond complexity lies a revelation about human purpose. Ironically you use complexity and your level of cognition to asses the meaning and suss out a subjective outcome for yourself via philosophy but an inability to look beyond the wall that is ones personals limitations does not then equal or strengthen the notion that beyond this wall of complexity is a creator or an ultimate purpose. This by the way is a whole separate topic from choosing ones purpose which one naturally does as a human so as to engage with the world in a “wholesome” way but right now I am talking about the brass tacks of what to make out of a complex universe, and the fact that complexity only exists because of OUR limits not because of an intrinsic complexity that the universe parades around trying to show off. Reality is reality, be wary of interpretations you make about it. It’s all bs in a way.

Turvy Dance

Spinning magic, raising lies 

it’s a moment left for chance 

the cartoon is coming alive 

rendered black and red for laughs 

oh my

who do you think? we are 

who do you think? u are 

it’s no wonder you can’t sleep 

fundamentals of our doom

it’s no wonder you can’t smile 

searching looms that don’t exist

topsy-turvy dancing hat

what do you know? you’re smiling 

who do you think? saved your faith 

who do you think?u are
