You're hungry, but I'm starving
He cuts you down from the tree
He keeps you in a box by the bed
Alive, but just barely
He said, 'I'm your lover, I'm your friend'
I'm pure and he hits me again
With a bullet, number one, kill the family, save the son
Himself
Himself
The pieces of Jennifer's body
Found pieces of Jennifer's body
Found pieces of Jennifer's body
Just relax, just relax, just go to sleep
Just relax, just relax, just go to sleep...















one two three four what is it good for outside outside outside

(I don’t wanna go)

outside outside outside

where there are people push push pushing, passive aggressively with their elbows and shoulders like it’s all just an accident, like they aren’t really mean assholes with bad coffee breath casually passing gas on the train, addicted to reading, eating, tsk tsking the odor of my herbal essence. hypocrites. old shitty fucks.

I’ll show you what it’s like. I’ll give you freedom from freedom. I’ll strip you down until the only thing you can be is true.

I’ll fuck you in yr fucking fuck

I’ll overcome you with patience, I’ll endure all those uncomfortable frictions that occur when people first get to know each other…the little annoying things that put you off to someone…the things you give them the vibe to shut up about


the freeway entrances you barricade

(let me in let me in let me in)

when I wake up all I want is to go back to sleep

come here, come over, come inside

let’s stay in bed all day

(can you remember feeling any other way?)

outside I know everyone I see

all the songs on the radio are all the ones in my head

the internet is in my back pocket

I have a headful of pills and a handful of dead batteries

there is no service

there is no mercy

only my disgusting needs

and the earth waiting for scars




the longhaul
