I Am Nobody

i’ve got nothing to give
anymore, if i ever did
turned my back, left it behind
long gone, dissolved by time
in the pot to rot into to what not
hell, it’s hot, brain, shut up!
walked past an old comrade today
in the street, looked away,
guess she must’ve felt estranged
once close, but things have changed
for us, for her, for me
unbroken distance, fading memories
ch:
i’m nobody - my name is noone
i’m in exody - soon undone
on the floor of a cutting room
i believe i’ll dust my broom, i believe i’ll dust my broom
there’s nothing i want to know
i don’t and won’t neither come or go
all things, my personal hell
now’s turned into itself
the pains calling to go all in
from everything to nothing
there’s a woman who visits me
every once in a while, secretly
husband, kids, bourgeois style
calls me her binary file
when we talk, we’re not saying much, we rise above
sometimes, we make love
ch:
i’m not looking for the dumbfound
my ears are wide shot, my dead red eyes to the ground
most of the time, correction
all of the time by extension
i should’ve let it go them others way
and not the next tuesday
things i did and didn’t do
regrets now in timbuctoo
what i should and shouldn’t have done
all rolled into none
i can still explain it’s all the same loss
but wouldn’t see the backside for what it was
ch:
this must be a warning that something’s in full gear
birds are greeting the morning on the first day of the year
this must be a warning
this must be a warning
and death’s not coming soon
enough
for others
or myself

missing in action
it was cold, the forest dark
the night we lost ourselves
and drifted split apart
into hells’ bells gospels
where are you? x3
where are we?
hello
are you out there
can you hear us
could you give us a sign
anything, plz
hello hello
plz
you soon moved on
we didn’t somehow
you knew it all along
we know it now
where are you? x4
where are we? where are we?
where are we? where are you?
missing in action

The Valkyries Are Coming
03:00

you don’t recall our response or you fail to see the connection
when our foes pulled the same stunt once as you just did in disaffection
nothing unites more than a common enemy
that’s what friends are for bond together by animosity
ch:
the valkyries are coming, not a second too soon
thee slayer hippy’s drumming a welcome tune
your mama’s a top lawyer, newly engaged
to a tall, handsome voyeur, a boy half your age
they met on the strip, at the goldmine
your papa died of an ego trip, you’re next in line
ch:
in the midst of your ranting, we finally had enough
your constant middleclass chanting and told you to fuck off
you whined and said our only incentive was a desire to control all males
ha! your gender has nothing to do with either your lack of intellect or your liberal tales
gender has nothing to do with either lack of intellect or liberal tales
lack of intellect, liberal tales
liberal tales

hey master owns it all
hey master complete control
hey master beyond the law
hey master hey master
so you want us to tell a little about ourselves
ok, here we go
were hardworking, got a hard working resistance
thousand years of shit job pay experience
we’ve been into every work place hell hole
from hillbillyloo to true west pole
hey master incorporated
hey master emancipated
hey master constipated
hey master hey master
should we go on?
ok
our last job the management went barmy, so we quit
like the time before and the time before it
a lot bosses has got problems with authority
and communication and cooperation difficulties
yea we told them to fuck off but we didn’t threaten’ their kangaroo
it’s an unlawful, and go to jail for something we didn’t even do?
and the local ass kisser, we might have broken’ his heart
we and him had a rough start, then we kinda grew apart
hey master is this as good for you as it is for us x3
no use stopping now
might as well
might as well
might as well finish it
you say job, we say money, our dear noble adelaide
it’s not that we don’t like work, we just prefer to get paid
how long we’ll be staying? as short time as possible
we got a patent on a time machine that’ll make us impalpable
we don’t know why you over all others should hire us
perhaps if you make it before we leave, to fire us
any last words? questions? no? ok, we’re good too
it’s been fun, fuck you and goodbye, don’t call us, we’ll call you
hey master

Murder Love
01:26

they walked and talked like you
even had your hardened faces
yet something felt askew
like someone had taken’ your places
the words from your mouths
dumber and dumber for every line
first freaked us out
then just left us empty inside
ch:
murder love murder love push our buttons murder love
you look still all beautiful
what’s come out must be the insides
ugly and pitiful
you no longer feel the need to hide
ch:
murder love murder love push our buttons

ch:
the path’s been tough on all of us, we know
from the personal to the politico
left in the west, way down low
if you gotta go, just go, go ‘ey
what goes up is bound to comedown
better go out with a bang than fade in the long run
we won’t grow old together, we won’t get old at all
we’re not unaffected but this out of our control
ch:
counterfactual’s never been good, has it
it doesn’t really matter now, does it
henceforward, all vows and promises are off
letting its shadow fall on the past far off
one step forward, two steps back
one step forward, two steps back
one step forward, two steps back
one step forward

he had it made, all the money in the world, everybody loved him, asked for his autograph, took selfies with him, gave him blowjobs as soon as he showed himself in the street, on a gala, anywhere. he went up to the bar, drinks on the house, cocaine too, pulled out his cock,
got it sucked, pissed when he was done - yea
ch.
the higher their position in the hierarchy, the deeper their resentment
she was an aristocrat, a blue blood, the unemployed were lined up and she picked the obedient and good looking and sent them in to the woods with dogs, tracking and wear down a fox, so it would be an easy catch for her to kill. she sat up on her horse, unlocked her gun, imagined it was peasants - yea
ch.
the more were stamped on, the less we got to lose

we was born out of the class war
grew up in a refugee camp
used by the local company store
shitville, small town racist dump
we’re either unemployed
or working for minimum wage
the two positions we enjoyed
to bring you our rage
obstacles to our left
obstacles to our right
from all sides, we’re bereft
all around the line of sight
sold out to the enemy
tossed in a cage
‘til the next time we break free
to bring you our rage
we know you’re gonna be here
you know you’re gonna be here
yea alright
we go out as nobodies
the fight gives us our reign
the only time we’re on our knees
is on our way up again
living in the shadow of death
wasn’t meant to reach old age
fighting until the last breath
to bring you our rage
to bring you our rage
to bring you our rage

Incommensurable
02:13

they barked at us how come we wouldn’t talk to them anymore
and yet we said nothing, and they screamed “why don’t you answer?”
slobber on our backs, better than knives, some time is the end
cos’ that train’s left the station, and gone up around the bend
ch:
incommensurable modus vivendi
based on their changeability and our withdrawal
incommensurable we don’t get it
it’s a fuck you all
there’s a trail of mistakes lined up on their way leaving a slimy mess
the fruit, the effort and gain of thought less ness
yea it would be real funny if it hadn’t hit us too
and whatever we do, when ever we do it, is of little or no use
ch:
they look at society as a whole, a system in balance
for it, against it, equivalent for its maintenance
so there are no bad excuses at all for passivity
actions reactionary, and they’re revolutionary
ch:
fuck you all

the message you sent hours ago
still ramble in my brain
since then it’s been a no show
wicked heart, mind’s fooled again
silence’s making the words all bent
disintegrated matryoshka shells
now i’m wondering if it was meant
to be delivered to someone else
a hundred years of loneliness i’ve spent longing for you
recently you let me know that you’d thought of me too
as in past tenses, precious, yes, but still a memory
and i’m stuck with if i cant have you i don’t want nobody
pathetic x2
i like you and all, but not in that way
pathetic heartbroken’, heartchoken´
after a weekend or maybe two
a txt from you finally came thru
saying it’s not me, it’s you, you
pathetic x2
let’s be friends, let’s let’s be friends
pathetic heartbroken’, heartchoken´
pathetic heartbroken’
fuck your guilt trip, just let me bleed dry
and if i don’t die i suppose ill get up and do what ever the fuck there’s to do, ff
