about

dissonant blues, chromatic call for salvation

lyrics

Can't Wake Up




nothing in my face but disappointment
nothing in my arms but memory
outside the klaxon sun is sounding
inside I crawl between my alcohol and my caffeine

and I can't wake up
can't shake the haze and murk
I can't wake up
go beyond this stunted birth
I can't wake up

it's probably true the stems are blooming
it's probably true that beauty walks the streets
something turned my sight to sour
my eyes are thin and I look at everyone like an enemy

and I can't wake up…

all my days preserved in amber
there's nothing left for me to hide
and I spoke to well, you know, I just can't be bothered to remember
now I cast the dice in the book of rhymes to see what's buried alive

and I can't wake up…

so hold your pleasant salutations
don't try to get me on the phone
if you wanna join this dark celebration
leave your confetti and the ice cream melting on your bones

and I can't wake up...
