own the beating of my heart

i'm ashamed of the way your songs and your words

all or nothing baby

they should ask me
thats what the after school specials say
they should look and notice and ask

but it's hard to tell
and i'm upfront about it
how can you say i'm sick when i admit it myself

maybe i'm lying.

first of may, first of may / outdoor fucking starts today

and i'm just in time
for something
unless i'm so late as to have arrived early for the next annual bout of festivities.

the world tipping like a drunken loon around me
the only steady thing in sight
gibbering, if air could gibber
oh eyes, how frail you are
