behind the screen

[dead man]

Where there's copper and tar, carbon copy bizarre
photo ops, diabolical charm. gothic arkham resolve
somewhere gotham recalls was once a gleaming oasis
housing creative reform upon a seasonal basis
read your relations, meetings with strangers, policeman or rapist
everybody's terrified, deceitful and anxious
xanax for instability and weed for the stasis
biotic arrangement power cord to reach entertainment
see what the date is. never again will this moment occur
but still i waste it. cause motion is pure, only a blur
in a grand scheme it's miniscule. microscopes to observe
an individual plant seeds to grow and mature
psychomotor neural toxins, dissociative nerves
calmed by chiving onwards towards compulsive reserve
late nights, brown liquor, roaches to burn
blacketh robed camel joe inside promotional urns
i know what you came for and i know you're unsure
i'm here to take that pain away, ive hoped for a cure
and been met with disease. temperature freeze. textural dreams
intellectual retard writing text you believe
i've seen past lives reincarnate as a penciled reprieve
and futures cut short because they're measured in ki's
lost love and sacrificed a treasure for greed
to spend a single night inside of heaven's physique
followers are swallowers, its better to lead
everybody off that cliff into a sedative sea
the seconds that we spend behind electrical screens
are better spent dead until you're ready to breathe
inhale, let it soak a minute, wet as can be
feel the rush of white lightning as it settles beneath
legend has it, rumors have a way of spreading their seed
playing telephone is socialized reception we teach
on metronome tectonic ticks continuously
genie lamps illuminate a wish to be free
serendipity seethes. snakeskin soothsayer, simple & clean
shipwrecked as a mechanized defensive retreat
system delete, backspace acrobatic, mission complete
repetition is key, go check your history please
i've only tried to make a dent anonymously
but it all falls down like autumn leaves. art is a breeze
i've only tried to warn of what i've already seen
but it all falls down like autumn leaves..
