Kick the coke can
down the road
all the way
to fired gold
and eat your way
through a bag of chips
I got friends in stranger places
I see signs in fire places
I know where the teens all get their kicks
They hide around the backs of houses
smoking grass and telling tales
of what they would become if they were me
I know all the secret spots
I’ve smoked the tale and drank forgot
where I started when I found this mess
I got a bottle of my own piss
I’m gonna throw it in the crowd
it sparkles in the green mist
it disrupting the sound
Toss a coin in the fountain
ripples in the whirlpool
displacing the water
it barely makes a splash
tighten up your purse strings
give money to the church bells
we could use your donation
every little helps
bring it to the bonfire
bring it to the Fire Pit
Bring it to the pit stop
Don’t stop until it’s lit
Someone turn the lights on
Someone stop the crowd
Someone call the ambulance
There’s disruption in the sound

Picture
daffodils
in the parking lot
creeping
ever closer to the sun
Pluck the
brightest one in your hand
watch it,
wither in your palm and die
I’ve been under a lot of pressure lately
what with the world the way it is
what with demands upon all of my free time
what with it’s expectation of how i live
COULD YOU SEE ME
LATER ON IN THE
EVENING
I NEED MY FIX
MORE AND MORE
EVERYDAY
TELL ME SWEET LIES
OR THE TRUTH
I CAN’T TELL NO MORE
CHiPPING AWAY
AT MY ILL GOTTEN PRIDE
I’ve been under a lot of pressure lately
what with the world the way it is
what with demands upon all of my free time
what with it’s expectation of how i live

picking it up out of class
you’re a traitor to the last
man standing in the battle of the feud
lowering your signs of wealth
do it for your mental health
do it so the spooks just won’t follow you
be weary of the letter H
be weary of the 88
be weary when they cottage core looks kinda cuuuute
I believe in crystal mines
you believe in crystalline
structure are gonna save you
Trick shot
land it in the pool dryer
lost love
sign it with the less than three
Pick up
on the sheet or on the string
Good luck
to all my other brethren
Trick shot,
try again with better rhymes
Lost Puck
Midsommer nightmare of our times
Pick Up
The plectrum bends under the strain
Good luck
To all my humble brethren

The Present

When you’ve been
Stuck alone
with your brain
for a whiie
You find the
nooks and crannies
you forgot
open purpose
they all come back
flooding in
to your mind
oh dear
then you get to re
litigate
live it all
once more
Why'd you make me think at all?
I was living in the present
Find peace in
little things that you find
on the road
the smell of
freshly mown broken glass
eat black berries
one at a time
with your fingers
that you plucked
by yourself from the bush.
Why'd you make me think at all?
I was living in the present

I’m tired of propping you up like a rag doll
(rag doll)
Every time you manage to fuck up on the big roll
(Big roll)
Did you ever consider that there’s more than you
(more than you)
Did you consider, there’s more to our inner truth
(Inner truth)
Well I’m DONE with all the playing
I’m here to stand and fight
and if you turn around
you’re a coward not a knight.
I’m tired of propping you up like a rag doll
(rag doll)
You’re tired of helping me out the void of my big soul
)big soul)
Reclined on the beaches of the mist
(beaches of the mist)
It’s time of ryou to step into your new roll
(New Roll)
Could you find a way to forgive me in your small heart
Could we find a way to move past this and have a restart
All I ever wanted was for you to be okay
You’re alright now, is that the same?

Unmournable
02:46

There’s a house on a hill
that sits beneath the earth
and you can see it from a plane
and you can watch it in the dirt
writhing underfoot
like ground might swallow you whole
but it won’t
it’s not real
get your brain under control
there’s a ghost in front of you
he wants to know the time,
he has an enquiry
that he’d like you to find
find out for him
what he’s still doing here
you blink
and he’s gone
like he was never there
you’re tired
was it sleep?
that caught you unaware
well yes, and then no.
cause the thing was never there
but in your head, he’s real
he has a place upstairs
in your brain
where you live
that’s where the ghost resides
and he’ll come
and talk
when his prerogative provides
There’s a feeling
in your gut
that keeps you awake
at night
and its never startling
it doesn’t give a fright
it’s just there
and it gnaws
hatred and love
all wrapped up in one
one tiny grain
that weighs a thousand pounds
that costs a thousand pounds
that smoke can’t blow away
and you sit with it
in your stomach
as it churns
and you know its name
you feel it’s loss
but can’t provide the urn
Unkowable
Unmournable
And ever present there.

Ward Stories

I’m staying up late on a work night
to see if I can find
a new sound for my hard drive
to split a new piece of mind
to venture into the unknown
to cross the paths that I once knew
to recapture some madness
bottle it up
give it to you
just bring me the bare essentials
bread and water will do me
Any maybe bring me some cocaine
or just bring me some weed
it’s time to pull back the curtain
step through into the veil
and bring back stories I once new
put em in songs
ready to sell
what am I doing to myself?
