Permutations

I recall a game of chess between us
Movements converge, scatter the pieces
Outside alone
Staring into space
Strange, cold and beautiful
Points outline shapes
I saw you
Volatile
Fridge magnet poetry
Shuffled endlessly
Inside his workshop it all stayed perfect
Pointless, in place
Dust and last prints his
When things started to break down
I borrowed what he'd use
The exhibit's over now
Now it's anything
It echoes across everything
Strange, cold and beautiful
Beautiful, cold and strange
Try to dig meaning from the stream
Try to find form in the void
Try hear voices in the noise
Try to put the pieces on the board
Try to put the pieces on the board

Grind kids
You can always tell a grind kid but you can't tell him much
Grind kids
You can take the kid out of the basement
Not the basement out of the kid
Phantom pains of a severed head
Club fogged up with weed and dread
Vampires preen at Friday freakshows
Scandalous tweets, it sold out a week ago
Rat-king pit left you hickied and blue
Headliners got high and forgot to tune
Comparing scars when you're hitching home
Air drum blast beat sixteenth notes
Sold a knife somebody dropped in the bathroom
Put it to the practice space or a new tattoo
Champing at the bit to take offense
Don't read any books that I'd recommend
Satan whispers "it's showtime"
Unfuckwithable, on that grind
Grind kids
You can always tell a grind kid but you can't tell him much
Grind kids
Freestyle when you're faded, good luck at the arraignment
Black denim legend in your own mind
Lemmy, Foucault, vegan option, black light
I thought about what you wrote about that article
It was subtle and logical, obliterating obstacles
Satan whispers "it's showtime"
Unfuckwithable, on that grind

The Damned

When will the damned be allowed to nap
When will the cursed receive their frappe
I'm in the trap
But I'm rethinking my behavior
When will the hungover get a pardon
When will the wretched earn a bourbon
When will they be told
That their fly is down
Never
Let them suffer
Hilarious
You are terrible
Must a head be embalmed
Must one do a major vom
Yes
I'm afraid it's yes
I would not like to be hammered flat
I would not like to be dipped in a vat
Now I've ruined
My combo meal
Never
Let them suffer
Hilarious
You are terrible
Lay me upon the money pile
Tell me nothing more is required
Or make a me lab rat
In your drug trials
Jim beam me up to the fifth dimension
Return my can to the can redemption
Or wheel me out as a Halloween decoration
Never
Let them suffer

Cool T-Shirt
03:10
|

I got time for one more episode
I think it's getting late
Another drink
But I can't do this every night
Gotta act like I'm in charge tomorrow
I should just say fuck it
I didn't want a promotion this year
Or the next year
Or the next year
Or the next year
Mamacita, mamacita marry me
Margaritas, margaritas on the beach
It gets so bad, you know
But that's a cool t-shirt
I'll never let you go
Maybe I want to marry rich
And own a Volvo and a condo
You know Plato's allegory of the chips
Stuck on a shelf in a vending machine
Oh no
I thought I'd have a little more put away
Everyone's counting on me
Yeah yeah yeah
Mamacita, mamacita marry me
Margaritas, margaritas on the beach
It gets so bad, you know
But that's a cool t-shirt
I'll never let you go
