If I stop breathing will you catch my breath
If I lose a limb
Will you be my leg,
If I break my back will you support me
When they tear me down
Will you re-stitch me?
I swear, I was stronger than this
Then a moment escaped me
Now I'm left with this
I know you're there
I know, I swear
And I know you love me
But is the lust still there?
It’s a felony, she’s right in front of me
I know she knows
I’m a disaster
It’s a felony, it’s right in front of me,
I know she knows
I’m a disaster
Full frontal
Annihilation
My cells,
Are damaging now
And the bad blood is in me
And I'm struggling how
To tell you, to show you
To leave you secure
To make myself softer
Before I leave you
I've got it all, under control
I've got it all, under control
I’ve got a hyperactive imagination
I’m radioactive in my system
Its the bad blood
That’s in my system
But she knows
I’m a disaster
I’ve got it all,
Under control
I push it all under the rug,
I’ve got it all under control
I know she knows
I’m a disaster
It’s a felony
That’s right in front of me
I see she knows
I’m a catastrophe
It’s all the blood,
That’s in my system
I’ve got a
Hyperactive, imagination
She’s a disaster
She’s a felony
She’s right in front of me
She sees
I’m a disaster

O Sharon
You are light supreme
When our hearts of gloom crying
And you step into our dreams
Sister
Take us flying
O Sharon
Angel of dreams
When the dawn breaks softly
And the mountains sing
Sister
Take us only
Fading with you
In a dream in Heaven
Fading with you
Far away
Fading with you
In a dream in Heaven
Fading with you
Far away
Sharon
You are night eternal
For all silent eyes
Angel
From the shadows
Fade to light
Life
Eternal
For silent eyes
Sister
From the shadows
Fading to light
Fading with you
Fading with you
Fading with you
Fading with you

Stolen Flesh

I saw you’re upload and my heart skipped a beat
I can't express to you what this meant to me
Over our city
In every breath you take
She sets the table
And she still sets your plate
She's draped in crimson
She's covered in lace
A ghost cloud cover
A ghost to embrace
Ether in the atmosphere
I smell her perfume
I can smell her perfume
I can smell it on you
Slow shake by the tombstones
Twist & shout by the cemetery gates
Lift your glass to the future
Let’s drink and dance
Drink to the end
Death becomes you
Death is becoming my friends
I walk with Death
And she’s holding my hand;
She smells of roses
Of rot and decay
She smells of flesh
At the end of the day
Roses in the hospital
Roses in bed
Vodka in your blood stream
With all the morphine
You’re stronger, numb
Now you’re stronger than me
Roses and vodka at the cemetery
Slow shake by the tombstones
Twist and shout by the cemetery gates
Lift your glass to the future
Let’s drink and dance
Drink to the end
Come as you are
With pictures of you
Pictures of youth
These pictures break me down man
Dress me in purple,
Drape me with black
Take me with you
And don’t bring me back
I’d rather dance you to the end of love
I’d rather they
Skin me alive
Than be without you
I’ll take my chances
I know the consequences
Inhaling without you
I’m not breathing at all
Slow shake by the tombstones
Twist and shout by the cemetery gates
Lift your glass to the future
Let’s drink and dance
Drink to the end

Like an atmosphere model
I know it feels weird
But I’m living inside you
You probably thought I was dead
So, I write to my future self
And to all my future friends
To remember this story
When we all go to Hell
With easy money
Easy girls
Easy dope, man
Easy death
Easy lovers
Easy friends
Easy haters, man
Easy pets
I’ll meet you all as sun sets
When everything glows red
And I might give you my hand
So we can all go to bed
Monitor faces
Sliding under DM’s
Please leave me a comment
On how you enjoying Hell
With easy money
Easy girls
Easy freedom
Easy death
With easy power
Easy drugs
Easy knowledge, man
Easy fans
With easy heroes
Easy fame
Easy lovers
Easy pain
Easy haters
Easy game
Easy days
Easy blame
With easy money
Easy girls
Easy dope, man
Easy death
With easy lovers
Easy friends
Easy haters, man
And easy pets
With easy money
Easy girls
Easy freedom
Easy death
With easy power, man
With easy drugs
Easy knowledge, man
And easy fans

I carry a bag
It’s full of my loneliness
A few crumbs for dinner
And a pillow book for success
Against forces of evil
Look, how lucky I am
In a hood with no mercy
I grow up in a dark
Violent city
Full of death and despair
No, this is not London
This is Athens, GR
Full of curated places
We may bathe in the sun
Discuss 12 step bullshit
Or how we hate Marx.
Sweet gardens of mothers
Nude selfies and eggs
Like fallen empires
Never learned to respect
Instead we all settled
Searching for God
On duty-free sales
All offers expired
On happy greed hunting
Or in a sorry plight
Still death terrifies most
Let’s have one last bite
From all trash we are served man
From all leverage lies
From all shit we are told man
By their glorious sites.
And we’re all standing here
On the edge of doom
With no exit strategy
Just a ticket to gloom
As we’re puking out sorrow
Until we all fall down
The great gamble is freedom
Condemned by demands
I know it’s business as usual
I know when to duck
I know the plot thickens, it’s tricky my man
But you can have my hands
Search through your wardrobe
Where all is consumed
Devoured by passion
When all our friends were good.
And I’ll pick the right color
For my uniform shroud
Then I’ll pick the right bullets
To take us all fucking down.

I’m gonna burn my bridges
I’m gonna burn them to the ground
I’m gonna drown all of my friends
I’m gonna watch all my friends go down
I’m the destroyer
I am your blue God
I walk through ashes,
I am fertility
I breathe in concrete
I exhale gasoline
I am, the life of the party
Oh no! Now the party crashed!
On the roof of an Airbnb
It’s just my dope, the twilight and me
But, I can see everything
I can feel everything!
Under neon emptiness
And all the unkept promises
There still the love for the Bolsheviks
I’m going back to the party
It’s Dark thirty
And I’m still on the move
I’m on ground level
And the grey has gone blue
I’ve caught the hue
Inner city blues
Bouncing off the asphalt
The dope, the twilight and you
I’m gonna light my bridges
I’m gonna watch them burn to the ground
I’ll protect all of my friends
And all my friends will protect you.
I breathe in diesel
I exhale neon
I am electricity
And I go through everything
I’m the destroyer
I am your blue god
I am fertility
I give life to everything

Hospital Of The Storm

On the hottest day of summer
In the August heat and under its blood red moon
On a window sill in Venice
A wild flower was destined to bloom
At the mercy of the Catholic Church
And all four seasons of their muse
They plotted notes on pentagrams
They were programmed to abuse
As the orchestra of the sister swans
Entertained the royalty
They plotted murder at the palace
Screw the aristocrats, fuck the patriarchy
They hid their weapons in cases
Of the string ensemble violins
They hid stilettos in their stockings
Sharpened on both ends
Halfway through the concert
The cellos came to a sudden roar
And the symphony of sisters
Stood tall for the encore
They fired off the first round
Aimed at families
They pulled out their sharpened knives
To finish off the deed,
The ladies packed up all instruments
They cut off their long locks
They put on the clothes of the male aristocrats
And hid out inside the catacombs
A symphony of ill repute
A symphony in blood
A swan sister symphony
Destined to change what would

Vanquish

If they bare guns
We’ll bare their bones
If they close schools
we’ll crush their skulls
We put them on
The pedestal
We let them drain
Then take control
We need a lord
We make one up
We cover souls
In rubble dust
The city’s cold
Covered in ash
From the Blue God
That burned it down
White flag’s on fire
The den is gone
Let’s run for cover
And take our dogs
These are our shepherds
These are the wolves
These are our nurses
They’ll lick our wounds
It’s antiseptic
For wounded flesh
Step over corpses
To plant our flag
It’s instrumental
For when we march
Over the caskets
Of all the past
Now take their weapons
They’ve used them wrong
Let’s educate them
Then tear them down
Vanquish their culture
Paint in their blood
On walls of Athens
Red Parthenon
They will attack us
From land and sea
They live amongst us
They are our friends
Tactical warfare
And wiki leaks
Run for the mountains
Connection lost
Run for shelter,
Cover the youth
Protect the elders
Vanquish the truth
Burn all belongings
And build new homes
Live off the land
Live off the soil

La Poverina Della Ossa

The wisdom of a red sea
Runs in my veins
Your gift, a funny silver box
Disguised as a new pain.
I found you among skeletons
Like a trembling star
I learned about your missing parts
They could not reach your heart.
Everything about me
Everything is true
Everything about you
Is the missing clue.
When the “Hate Crews” march
Your shelter is mine
I am strong enough to carry you
Savior of our kind.
I'll keep you safe inside my den
With mutilated arms
I learned the lessons of the past
I'm strong enough to give you life life.
Everything about me
Everything is true
Everything about you
Is the missing clue.
A shinny cosmic thunderstorm
You are my secret bomb
A pleasant gift as heavens dry
Bring raindrops to my door.
