THE COUCH INCIDENT

I'm not afraid of the ghosts in your head
I heard them say they won't torture you anymore
upset the blanket all torn 
as you wish you were dead

well I've seen it all come out her mouth and her nose 
her wrists are two rivers spilling onto her clothes

feels like
what does it feel like? 

I counted your lies once 
and had a list down to my ankles 
all cut up and carved out just like

take it 
take it out

bitter white pills they don't even do justice to hide 
what she's made of inside they just kill her all over
that killer that killer that killer that killer 

I'm biding my time like she's biting her tongue 
but I'm eating her words and reminding her she was young
she was young once

7:30AM

I'm gonna leave you anyway
I'm gonna leave you anyway
I'm gonna leave you anyway

you're gonna walk right out that door
you're gonna walk right out that door
I'm gonna watch you walk away

I want my face to be untouched
I want my face to be untouched
I don't want nobody's mark

I want to sleep and dream alone
I want to sleep and dream alone
I want to fade into the dark

carve it all up
you'll find nothing 
to put upon your plate

have no logic
too much reason
it's an admirable trait

carbonated feelings bubble up 
every morning when I wake
upchuck suck up 
best take your vitamins
I'm doing what I can for my body's sake

FOR MARSHALL

He hates her when she breaks
only likes her when she works
and she don't work so good these days
he wants to scrape her face off

pick up the microphone
he's riding on an empty bus
she had her way with you inside of that warehouse 
you've got them problems gaining trust

everybody's got a favorite rapper
who will never know their name
I wish that I could sort through your fan mail
while you pass out on the train

ENTER, REJOICE, AND COME IN

Fuck my face 
scratch my back
itch my bug bites 
don’t get attached
don’t get attached
 
dress like that
wear your scariest mask 
freak out the children 
whip out that flask 
whip out that flask

bad sad yogurt 
what to make of you? 
This snack sucked
give me a re-do

you’ve got a task
remove all my limbs
gouge out my eyes 
I’ll call you mommy

I hate your new look 
Where’d you buy that shit? 
What is in that bag?
You never quit 
you never quit 

feels like paper 
tastes like paper
feed me now
or put me to bed
put me to bed

NO EYE CANDY

When you walked in the room 
I thought my luck had changed
my luck had changed too soon 
I saw you onstage with a snake
navel dripping wet through my plasma screen
take one take two take three
take take take take

but all you said to me was
no eye candy

every night before I go to bed 
I like to read a book 
so that my mind will stop thinking 
about the things that I stress about

I did not have implants
I just had a growth spurt

no eye candy

BOBBY & WHITNEY

Holding it down ain’t the easiest to do 
it’s an art form 
it takes practice

But tearing it up 
a craft more familiar 
you all know me
I am tactless

which way which way tell me where to go 
‘cause I never go the right way no
no no no no no no 
no no no no no

tie up my hands
tie up all of it
don’t want to use it no more
so take it off 
take off all of it

I look for love in all the wrong places

you lift me up
love lifts us up where we belong 

IN A SEXUAL WAY

I can’t help but look at you in a sexual way
Where did you get that bod? 
Where did you get that face?

You told me once
you were shit out of luck
but you’ve got such perfect teeth
and you never even had braces

I can’t help but wonder
what our babies would look like
Would they be all strong like you? 
Would they be all uptight like me?

Pull me up from the ground
please digest my roots
eat the moldy fruit
you’ve got an iron stomach
don’t you?

POLYAMORY

We talked about
the modern day
polyamory
she’s into polyamory

we talked about
what they’d all say
polyamory
yeah she’s into polyamory

you said your piece
and I said mine

meet me in the crawl space
I’ll be waiting there with bags
I’ll be the one without a face
I’ve tried to leave like this before

if you want out 
tear down the wall

she wants to try the mephedrone
she wants to wake up with blue limbs
I always pick the wild ones
all into amputation

I sleep with both
my arms outstretched
come on at me ‘cause I know you’re coming at me

I glued my bed
down to the floor
go and try and take me now

MISNOMER

I tried to smoke the crazy out of me
but crazy he don't scare so easily 
my eyes all red but I can see
mom it's just a tree

the plan falls apart everyday
so I try to cough everybody I know away 
saw you so much had nothing to say 
dark lungs served up on a silver tray

oh my god
I got this shit on lock
It feels like a misnomer to me
tell me how does it feel to you? 

Does it fizzle out?
or combust all pop pop pop? 
Do you think I am too old for it?
Do you think that I am a slob?

I said don't worry use your hands
won't beg won't choose
won't have no demands 
stomach tablet crushed up tastes like sands
born backwards diving forwards
have no fans

she said think fast
I said oh I'll think faster
when you try to make it last
I don't wanna see it
maybe it looks like a god
or a sudden forest fire
I will stay at home 
and wait for it to spread spread spread

I said it's got no name
you'll hold it over my head 
misnomers all taste the same 
when your taste buds go dead

I don't wanna talk about fault
because we both know whose fault is bigger
I don't wanna stick it deep inside
your close to perfect figure

INCOMPETENT

I couldn’t do what they asked of me 
so I cut off my hands
ripped up some muscle
to build some new tissue
to meet my demands

ain’t got no space in a crowded place
and ain’t got no face 
it’s gone without a trace

so tip me over and pour me out
show me what your bong water is all about.

sometimes I think that I’m made up of worms yeah
takes a toll to admit that I’m full of germs yeah
or that something’s wrong

A-R-G-E-N-T-I-N-A
up on your feet
and then down on your back for a day

sometimes I think that I’m made up of worms yeah 
takes a toll to admit that I’m full of germs yeah
or that something’s wrong

KEG PARTY

Coors Light
it keeps my six-pack tight
when it gets too late at night I don't fight
I never really try to fight

but all my pillows are too hard
and my sheets are straight up scarred 
it tasted just like water
what I puked in your backyard

and so I chug fuck sip suck die

well I make it out alive
but there are several dicks drawn onto my back 
and both my tits look like two crying faces
my body never cuts me any slack

and so I chug fuck sip suck die

and now there are brothers on the corner
saying that I sucked them off
but my throat's the shallow kind
baby boy you know that I would just gag and cough 
but I doubt you'd really mind

and now I can breathe underwater
because I don't know how to drown
my boat is made of platinum gold
your cubic zirconia earrings got crushed on the ground
