Tiki Satanism

Tiki Satanism
American hedonism and the fall of Rome
Try to stop breathing
Fill your vessel with sand
Sigh in the sea wind
Lose sight of land

Take off your visor
Take off your vest
The drama you crave is
An infinite jest

You cannot see Him
But you’ll call him Man

And you’ll martyr yourself
For the promised land

Try to stop breathing
Fill your vessel with sand
Sigh in the sea wind
Lose sight of land

Take off your visor
Take off your vest
The drama you crave is
An infinite jest

Drink without meaning on the tiki veranda
Whiskey and sunburn and waterproof camera

Coladas and Christ in this new world you’re braving
Apocalypse tongue and nicotine craving

And nicotine craving
And nicotine craving
And nicotine craving

The birds in the trees
can see that we’re grieving

We sleep under skins
And falsify dreams

The birds in the trees
can see that we’re scheming

We sell out their skins
And fabricate dreams

No more lies
No more lies

Fresh Goliaths

Fresh Goliaths

Motor away
He wants a holiday
So he puts up with His Lies
And she takes the bait
And it’s no surprise

Golden state!
Holden’s fate! 
The Church VS the State
is battle scars 

Fresh goliaths
Show their battle scares
Fresh goliaths
Show their battle scares
Fresh goliaths
Show their battle scares

Corks

Corks

Corks is a fighting song
Pop the corks and gather in the hall
For the sum of all we've fought
Line those men against the fucking wall

Against the wall (You want it all)
Against the wall (You want it now)
Against the wall (You want it how?)

In my head is a ravaged place
Where spirits make the call
In my head is a wild place
Where the gods are blind and our limits die

Against the wall (You want it all)
Against the wall (You want it now)
Against the wall (You want it how?)

Even lords will fall
For the sum of all we've fought
It's the beck and call, as we
Gather hearts of darkness

Teeth

Teeth

#metoo
Another lovely afternoon
Another sickled dawn
It is green as hell tonight
But the blues will carry on

Another deadly policy
Another world will fall
Another man with a loaded gun
Another back against the wall

Against the wall

(If we see her at all
We won’t see her at all)

She may have lost her personhood
Birthed her fetus in the heath
May have lost her dignity
But at least she’s got her teeth

Bananas

Bananas

End on an up-beat.

The likes of you
With the likes of me
Is bananas
Hanging from a tree

Low picking fruit
In the marrow of your youth

So uncouth
When you’re showing
Your moonglow,
Your electric eyes
You gave me a virus
And I aim to sire it

Bananas

The Rest of Us Are Singing

I'd never written a song longer than 5 minutes.


Apocalypse brethren
The deal is done
The world shifted
Our world is undone

Apologist breath-men
The world has moved on
We sing to ourselves
With our guns drawn

Put a fork in it

The men of the world
have a settle to score

Look in the mirror
And see the lord and his domain
— Suzerain

Empty your pockets
Strip all the sockets
Hollow the bunkers
And fill them with lead

Points are hollowed
Lies are swallowed
Cowardice reeks like a rotten egg

And now they beg

To be heard and to be feared
To untaste the rainbow
To unfeel the moon dust
To unsee the curved horizon
To undo 500 years

The apocalypse brethren
Will defeat the dead
They sing to themselves
With their guns drawn

Sleep with the lights on

You mutter to yourself
With your gun drawn
A morning song
While the rest of us are singing

Our world is undone

Put a fork in it

We Aren't Marshmen

We Aren't Marshmen

Even marshmen have to fight for love

Here you could say “please hold me now”
I’ll emerge heart on my sleeve from marshy shallows

Hey!

Soon you’ll know a heavy heart to hold
Whoa ooh whoa
Soon you’ll know why I cry

Don’t know why
Don’t know why

Even us marshmen have to fight cuz our
bones are wet and our souls are white

Hey!

Soon you’ll know a heavy heart to hold
Whoa ooh whoa
Soon you’ll know why I cry
Soon you’ll know a heavy heart to hold
Soon you’ll know why I cry


Wet and lonely night
Another lonely night
Wet and lonely night
Seven lonely nights
Night night night night night
Another lonely night

January Sugar

January Sugar

She says she tastes like sugar
from a cask of Dominican 7

S-s-s-s-s-satan

She says she works for the church
But she’s a teller at the 7-11

S-s-s-s-s-satan

She says she danced for the Gods
But her dance is lacquered with sin

S-s-s-s-s-satan

She says lets waste our life
On a lovely light. . . C’mon

La la la la

What could you do?

C’mon

She says her heart was yours
On a winter’s night you took the bait

She says she tastes like sugar
from a cask of Dominican 7

She says the wicked will fall
So let’s drink to ‘em all!

Manifest

Manifest 

Suicide victims stand in a row
They’re licking their fingers
But there’s no where to go

They’re twiching their limbs
But there’s no place to rest
Their weary souls tonight

They say this soul is a ghost
They say the soul is a square
They say to see with our hearts
I see a boat in the air

Hey!
I see a boat in the air
I see a boat in the air
They say to see with our hearts
I see a boat in the air

I see you a little
I can’t see you at all
I can see with my heart
I see a boat in the air

The Fuel Burners


The Fuel Burners

Mirror snake
At the crossroads
Mirror snake
At the crossroads
Mirror snake
At the crossroads

Fear stakes us to the soil
Fear makes our skins a boil
Plots our steerage thru the toil
Fear stakes us to the soil

Go fast go far die embroiled
Go fast go far die forever
Go fast go far die unloyal
Go fast go far die forever
