lyrics

eris came to me at night and whispered in my ear you're getting boring you're getting old and as she left she placed a single golden apple at the foot of my bed I tried to go back to sleep knowing it was futile until the fractured dam in my skull burst forth again as it always does I took a bite and it was mealy and it was bitter not at all how I expected such beautiful thing to taste the smell of burnt toast flooded my nostrils another mockery, another practical joke and when I finished core and stem and all I just lay back and waited for the drama to begin for my life to unravel crumble or capsize to recede into obscurity and smolder in the shadows of your brighter bolder and far more fragrant blooms they say inside all obsession is the seed of a wish a prayer for absolution from the pressures of the living and so I spat the seeds out and wrapped them gently in a cloth and tucked them tenderly beneath my sweat stained lumpy yellow pillow and slept for seven years and then another seven more just waiting for the stem to rupture through my skull and free all the fluids free all the dreams draw in all the pity dam up all the streams but nothing grew
