Navigating The Winward Passage

Drinking death wish nights can't save this
glass eyed slack jaws scream from safe homes
i've got it wrong
time and again, song after song
you've got answers: killing to please, swooning disasters
so inventory me, drop me in your fishbowl
i'm dying to breathe through your tight pigeon hole
a dead man in dead dreams…
when i'm gone you won't miss me
you're dying to fist me (honestly, now)
out of the close and into the fire
out of these dumb little quips that inspire
outright outrage enrages you now
you're lifeless and sticky
kicking dead cows
fuck you sound
one shot, all wrong
one lie, all gone
so cry for yourselves, i'll die with my own help
these words are mine and this grave that we share time after time chokes my life out while you ask yourselves what i'm crying about
well, these tears that are falling are wetting deaf ears
you cry your protests and say i don't care
and you know what?
i couldn't care less if you're repulsed through and through
a dead man in dead dreams when it's all said and done
did you really think that you were the only one?
you were here before you, you'll be here when you're gone
just another lemming humming protest songs
fuck you sound
