lost time 02:12
i am standing just behind myself watching foreign limbs in motion cresting on the shores of discontent and i can barely, barely see the back side of my teeth and i can barely, barely feel the thing that moves me now i’m strange and broken and that’s all right i couldn’t tell you what it is to be a person if you tortured me all night but i can barely, barely be happy and i can barely, barely feel goodness thus strangely are our souls constructed

untouchable 01:54
night falls on new hampshire the stars are bright and cold the fire’s burned down to the embers and i know, i know in my heart of hearts if i touched them i would feel no pain noon rises on poughkeepsie the sun is fat and round the pine trees reach up to the sky and i know, i know in my heart of hearts if i climbed them i’d be sure to fly dawn comes to massachusetts the air is thick and damp the asphalt is sharp through my shoes and i know, i know in my heart of hearts i’m untouchable through and through

touchable 03:24
i don't want you to touch me
5.
there is something inside me waiting to get out cresting on the horizon great and terrible and when i am new again when it makes me new again i, i will guide the flames away from you there is something waiting for me clawing at my insides reaching for my hand power and when i am new again when it makes me new again i will put you by my side
6.
i am going to go where no one has gone before i am going to live where they say i couldn’t live i am going to be what no one else could be i’m not doing this for you i am going to be impossible to see i am going to be invincible i am going to be what no one else could be i’m doing this for me i am going to change the person you made me i am going to transform myself again i am taking steps forward i’m never going back fuck you you don’t own me
7.
i can hear the dogs howling i can hear the people cheering i won’t be here for you, darling not with what’s slowly nearing now don’t go looking for the dogs and don’t go looking for me the real me is miles away and it’s too dark to see the magic of the evening is lost on you and me i am a floating cloud of consciousnesses and you’re just a human being
8.
i am a brother to dragons and a companion to owls as the whirlwind howls as my skin burns things have taken a turn things have taken a turn tell me do you not see my ways and count all my steps what more is there left what more is there left i’d presume only to know my own goodness and i know my own goodness man, i know it christ, i know it so let thistles grow instead of wheat and cockles instead of barley
9.
old blood on the pillow sweat on my lips i am young and i have seen too much but howl, howl, howl o we are men of stones i can’t find it in me to process deep rich scent again blood in my mouth i am young and i have lost too much but howl, howl, howl o we are men of stones i can’t find it in me to feel anything about the incidents yeah howl, howl, howl o we are men of stones i’ll tell you the story but i won’t attach myself to it yeah howl, howl, howl o we are men of stones there is nothing inside me anymore yeah howl, howl, howl o we are men of stones i didn’t come this far to remember
10.
diamond mind 02:25
i don’t remember the year you changed or the year that she changed me i left all that in the shining center where these things can’t breathe now all my information is clean and secondhand but there’s still bits and pieces that wash up on the sand and i push them back in the water i drown those suckers like rats cause i don’t wanna remember (etc.) that now they tell me the shining center is full of diamonds and i gotta go there someday well what if i don’t want my life brightened what if i don’t listen to you like hell i’m frightened i just don’t wanna remember (etc.) that
