  All decline I seeded from my fright
  Each dim year giving less to the light
  Suddenly present now
  
  All hail now the panopticon
  See all around me
  All of my failure
  Trapped under this dominion
  Shaking into seizure
  Now
  
  A perverse stirring
  I fell out of rhythm
  Sadness left me uneven
  A masking confusion
  
  Across the vast wilds of time
  I laid the grain down the coastline
  Ah, I wanted the Garden of Eden
  But fed my misgivings
  I wrestled with strength just like you
  I ate from the apple of my ruse
  And stared into the mirror of my truth
  All the time death as my muse
  
  All hail now the panopticon
  See all around me
  All of my failure
  Crushed under this dominion
  Shaking into seizure
  Now
  
  Naked and eyeless
  My iris has only black views
  All my misguidance
  Hiding as torment grew
  Alone on an island knowing the exits too
  I gave into silence
  Knowing the exits too
  
  Facing the violence
  I wrestled with death just like you
  In this panopticon
  
  I sought death
  In this panopticon
  Suddenly present now
• 3. Magnolia (04:33)

  I sat and reflected on
  The only photo at your funeral
  On the easel
  In the shadow of the willowed Sacred Heart
  Where we started wanting weeding
  Southern autumn
  Places of your life overgrown
  Warm winds blow
  Secrets we die with
  Trembling weakness is what haunts us now
  Inside the windows
  What once made us proud
  I owned everything thought to be suicidal mania
  I was everything taught to me
  Drinking deeply
  The truth of my grief
  But what else could be?
  Everything was written
  I saw everybody plead
  I owned everything thought to be suicidal mania
  I was everything taught to me
  Drinking deeply
  The truth of my grief
  Show me now everything that I offer
  I saw my own father
  Lay the ground beneath me
  I owned everything thought to be
  I was everything taught to me
  All the tapes and all of the letters
  At Heaven’s gate standing with the guards,
  My love is endless
  Everything of you is me
  Every step is toward the grave
  Could it be flesh and blood were all we gave?

  Lighting fell
  And I stood steeping in light
  Laughing with brilliant fear
  Turning back to your smile
  
  Every door peeled
  Open on an autumn afternoon
  We traversed warm boredom
  Fled disappointment
  And loved under the wide rose sky
  
  Drinking silver from a dim spring of mercury
  On the outskirts of a desert
  The lifeless slither
  Still we seek thirsting and wandering
  
  I was a man made of yesterdays
  Mornings glowing like coal
  Blinding the every day
  Legs buckling together when moving
  
  Now I’m faced from the East
  And rushing to the crest
  Of the valued vast
  Sterling purple echoing West
  
  Now I run from all my truth
  Away with you
  
  To the vast sterling purple echoing West
  
  From all my truth
  Away with you
  West
  
  From all my truth
  Away with you
  West

  His heart is closing
  Right when he is trusted
  Who is he close with?
  Feeling he owes his
  Sense of self to lusting
  Days without roses
  
  Oh, he lies to feel like he is someone new
  Oh, why don't we leave and go to somewhere new?
  
  I wonder what is numbness
  And what's a coma?
  Into the lights
  Closing his eyes in the lane again
  
  He quit looking for the pears in paintings
  Intimacy and its meanings
  Leaving fondness for weakness
  Strangers and desire
  
  I wonder what is numbness
  And what's a coma?
  Into the lights
  Closing his eyes in the lane
  Driving head into mystery
  
  No feeling but the weight
  I'm forgetting, he's forfeiting
  I'm deciding that he's quitting now
  
  Filled with the sin of power
  This is what he's destined for
  In this ugly hour
  Again he goes
  Where he's gone before
  Losing all reason
  He's never learning
  
  Someone adored lifts him today
  All who stay will know a true love
  Someone adored lifts him today
  All who stay will know a true love
  Know a true love
  Know a true...
  Know a true love
  Know a true...

  “Lunar studded starscape
  Doldrums in the calm
  Drama of dark choirs
  God’s teeth shatter—
  His black smile padded in muted shadow”
  
  What is life? I don’t know
  All I know is its price
  
  Savaging left me incomplete
  So I army crawled toward a glow
  Of craving and release
  
  Travesty in a gloomy world
  Where the embers of honeyed heat
  Formed a tar of black beginnings
  
  Where I own every want
  Always seeking to enter
  A taker begging for closure
  Go! I need aloneness
  I was feigning relief
  Wasn’t calm until now
  
  I need your guidance
  Will you see me? Can you see I need you now?
  This curse overwhelms me
  Can’t you see I need you now?
  Oh! I need allegiance
  When you find me coming down
  I’ll have only known the sound of your absence
  
  Wondering if I could ever wind up being him
  He’s not me! He’s not me!
  All this daydreaming without sympathy
  
  Going over the years
  When we lived together
  At the end of the track in the Townhouse Motel
  Blood on the mattress, blood on the walls
  All of the violence, all of the cops
  And when the men came with their guns
  First we hid in the bath then hid on the bed
  
  I loved you then, I love you now
  I loved you then, I love you now
  I forgave you
  I was proud to live in your shadow
  In the comfort of your breeze
  
  So, I’m not condemning
  Just remembering the beginning
  Majesty and misanthropy
  Beginning at 40
  From the zenith underneath
  Nadir! Nadir! Nadir! Nadir! Nadir!
  From every day living
  Waking in fear

  I think I might be hiding from myself
  It’s so good to be alone with someone else
  When you come to me, I see you wanting heat
  You’re so good to me
  Have we met before?
  It’s so good to be hiding from myself
  
  When you say “Baby, come to me”
  
  Who am I?
  One who cannot see
  I think I might be hiding from myself
  It’s so good to be alone with someone else
  ——————————-
  Hiding with the excess
  Intense abruptness
  I treaded the winepress
  The brutal facts of a strange bondage
  
  Not being held
  For all that I’ve done
  For all that I own
  
  Not being held
  For all that I’ve done
  For all that I own
  
  Desperate to be alone
• 8. Revelator (06:23)

  Isolate every waking day
  Hiding from self while loathing grows
  And I saw seeds of destiny
  The crumbling of what's been known
  
  Only by the grace, we see active mistakes
  And exist in their wake
  Moving on dictates
  We grasp the wounded face
  Of our own faint embrace
  
  The truth of renaming our struggle
  Seething in secret
  The mirror of the ugly cowards
  Taking the moment now
  Tying us to the ground
  Watching them hammer the nails
  
  I'm bringing them bile
  I'm clearing desires
  Coins on their eyes
  I'm clipping the flowers
  Of spiritless leaders
  Oh, they tremble in towers
  Lonely people with power
  Devoured by God
  
  The act of all these staggered obstacles dismantled
  The light of a new dawn prayer coming true
  Psychic struggle disappearing
  
  Everybody screaming
  Everybody screaming
  "No this cannot be"
  Wash the blood from my feet
  The hosts of Heaven melting trumpets now
  
  Find them, bring them
  Cut them down
  Find them, bring them
  Cut them down
  Take what they love (Find them, bring them)
  Burn it in fire (Cut them down)
  Take what they love (Find them, bring them)
  Burn it in fire (Cut them down)
  
  Everybody's praying
  To not have it be them
  To ascend, to evade
  What else could come?
  Everybody's praying
  To not have it be them
  To ascend, to evade
  What else could come?
  
  It was me, it was you
  Converging in toto
  Desperate to be left alone

  He sits and shows me naked women
  Wants to know my type
  Asks if I’ve thought to want them
  Laughs when I’m shy
  Hands sweat, coil back
  Twist into vines
  
  Don’t I owe them everything for all I’ve come to know?
  Seeing what I’m taught to see
  Taking to it slow
  Buried in the home
  
  When I tell him I’d beg to love them
  He starts smiling outside smoking
  Burned back slow til he starts choking
  
  Don’t I owe them everything for all I’ve come to know?
  Seeing what I’m taught to see
  Taking to it slow
  Buried in the home
  
  Nothing so sacred leaves this place of reason
  
  That was my cross
  That was the outcome
  That was the loss
  No, I don’t feel anymore
  
  Everything withers
  Everything dulls
  No, I don’t feel anymore
  Nowhere is guidance
  When everything’s wrong
  No, I don’t feel anymore
  Nowhere is guidance
  When everything’s wrong
  No, I don’t feel anymore

  We looked toward the woman
  And my face burned red blushing
  When she asked me the questions
  Are you ever alone?
  Are you older or younger?
  I held her close
  In my thoughts some way wanting
  In spite of the sorrow
  My tensing in terror
  On the strip of Ventura
  With the tin barrels burning
  Under a halo of moonlight
  When the hour was lonely
  It was the way that she touched me
  Her arm on the window
  And the way she said baby
  And the way she said baby

  The signs of progress
  Combatting all destinies
  It’s not for nothing that I impress
  On myself what I should be
  I know I need it
  No, there is no freedom
  There’s a missing piece
  
  The howling energy
  Is a shining vacancy
  Thinking I’d survive with everything I was gaining
  Behind the curtain I was sinking
  With everything I’m supposed to be
  I’m waiting for the fall
  
  I’ve been dreaming of somewhere seeing
  Us close to the knives
  If I could have a morning
  To have a moment
  A silver lining
  Id stick them in, twist them down, bury with ease
  
  Power bastard
  Pathetic master
  I’m reliving Saturn eating
  His flesh is everything of mine
  
  You took it all and left me nothing
  Laid me in a hole
  For death to feed on
• 12. The Marvelous Orange Tree (05:36)
   copy

  In the checkered orchard, I came alive
  Under the blue valley
  With a head full of midnight
  
  I escape between the rows of trees
  Down the ravine
  In the majesty of the San Joaquin
  Lonesomely wandering
  
  Cold in the checkered orchard, I came alive
  Under the blue valley
  With a head full of midnight
  
  Idiot’s blood drops like a dagger
  Pink tears flow
  As I sink into the After
  Leaving the day to close
  
  My body spills into a secret well
  God gave me the wish
  For religious stillness
  Showing shivering skin
  Living with this illness
  
  Showing shivering skin
  With you, my endless illness
  With my endless illness
  Walking into blackness
