lyrics

what other option is there than to give your head away or take the one that’s given away or give away your stuff to your friends but they don’t need it either in the snake pit you are but the snakes you fuck and not the other way around I believe that you touch yourself in the dark and think about nothing it’s some way to spend your time if two rivers down a mountain never touch what does it matter to you what does it mean to you if you cared the future would look different a thousand pine needles glowing red hot if two trees in the forest never touch can you still see it snakes become your friends and flog you to death for your secret sin on a thousand steel needles glowing red hot what is another horseless cowboy that knows no dirt that knows no rope or brownish sunsets supposed to think standing in between two rivers close enough to only see one river and touching themselves in the dark I knew a cowboy once and he hit me in the gut so hard I bled inside and I carried those guts with me forever the strange smell of misplaced guilt ever since then hit me again the corrugated face of the elephant the arctic smooth of the gun the face of the gun the substance that bridges the gun and the elephant to you on the other side of the world unknowing but on your back just the same wondering your connection to them the face of the gun the arctic smooth of the gun the face of the elephant and the substance that bridges the gun to the involuntary silence of things after they’re done being things for now you don’t know anything about silence for now
