Nihilistic

i want a way out of here
spin all my records
lying on my stomach
dreaming i'm Bowie again
i want my future back again
render my vision
smash down the prison
that i confined my head in
and i hated you and i hated me
there's nothing new under the sun
i hated everything
i want the breath i have lost
choking inside me
the disembodied self me
struggling for what's evaded me
and i hated you and i hated me
there's nothing new under the sun
i hated everything
am i nihilistic and who cares
am i nihilistic and who cares
am i nihilistic and who cares
am i nihilistic and who cares
and i hated you and i hated me too
there's nothing new under the sun
i hated everything and i hated everything
am i nihilistic and who cares
am i nihilistic and who cares
am i nihilistic and who cares

she likes to regale in black
she likes to talk with him
and though he's been gone so long
his face has long been gone
she said don't follow me
she said if this disturbs you
she said i have no good news to bring
she said she said
there is a mark around her neck
and i taste it with my finger
it's claret claret red
it was her passport it was her choice
her destination
vale vale vale vale vale vale vale vale vale
she said don't follow me
she said if this disturbs you
she said i have no good news to bring
she said she said

I Put Her Dress On

i put her dress on to feel her skin
she doesn't feel like I want to feel her
i put her dress on her pleasure and pain
she doesn't feel how i want her to feel
the rose is dead it's claret red
it's blood stained red it's red on white again
i want to swallow wine
i want to drown till my eyes turn red
i want to swallow whatever there is
i want to be with her again
i'm feeling nervous i can't replicate
this doesn't feel like i want to feel her
the rose is dead it's claret red
it's blood stained red it's red on white again
i want to swallow wine
i want to drown till my eyes turn red
i want to swallow whatever there is
i want to be with her again
i want to be with you again

I Have Killed Myself

biting on my fingers
stare into the waters
Shelley in the waters
stupid with a corpse grin
almond eyes and purple lips
i have died for you
i have died for you
i have killed myself
over and over again
soft flesh in the waters
jealous angry waters
Shelley in his wet grave
i'm stupid with a corpse grin
my almond eyes and purple lips
screaming screaming choir
screaming dead souls choir
drowned by hell's choir
i have died for you
i have died with you
i have killed myself
over and over again
i have died for you
i have died with you
i have killed myself
over and over again
over again
