you sent me spinning into something strange, something wrong, outside my skin. it singes. you sent me swimming too deep I fall into myself. it took two whole weeks for the bruises to pass through my skin and, even then, I could still feel the needles in them.

green pt 1 02:44
green is all that I want to be, all that I want to see. just you and me, a couple of tangled weeds, we line the streets, try to overgrow everything, try to overthrow everything and be the king and queen of the weeds. I scream at the thought of this being a dream. I could wake and lose everything. it's menacing and i'm grasping to the sheets but you're here with me, sifting air between my teeth, holding gravity in my feet. I feel what I can't see and i'm free as long as you move me. i fell in love with a ghost, i know. i fell in love with a ghost but i don't care because i can still feel you there.

my heart leapt into mouth but my jaw's locked tight so i can't let it out. i'm learning how to keep it all down. i'm learning how to be good. everyone needs to feed so i eat poisonous boys and let them feed on me is it a charity or a catastrophe? i never meant to do no harm but i'll cut off all of my hair and i'll grow it all back like it was never there. i'll pull out my teeth, cut my legs at my knees. i'll be new by the time i'm there. my heart bled out in my chest and my lungs collapsed, suffocating the rest. i'm learning how to hold my breath. i'm learning how to be good.

i can hear you singing in my CD player spinning on my way to work and i can feel you swimming in my bloodstream if i hold my breath long enough. there's something sick about the way you hold my hand a million miles away but its okay, i'll get through. it's okay but i miss you.

i don't really want to talk about it. not really something that you need to hear communicated through sideways glances and the heat when you are near i don't really even have to say it cause everybody already knows. everybody's already saying it, "you could've had it all."

about

i recorded all of this in the bathroom of my new apartment, next to a vent that is very loud and shuts on and off every five minutes.
like my past releases, it was recorded on my canon powershot sx150.
