NOTHING 02:52
Pass the morphine  my backs on the blink again  The pain makes me think again  With questions of what and when  Pulling out my hair and then another sip of heroin  that liquid death like laudanum  All the fear and death that’s made by them something has to give To live or just exist  In a fragile state like this  You’re either pissed or sadly missed obscured and ostracised  in the noxious clouds of mist  Your right  to exist at risk From their lists of perfect bliss  The alternative is fear  of exposure when they’re near repurposed reused , confused and bemused  Disposed and dismayed displayed for all to Mock to heckle to embarrass to amass such hate   ’ it’s too late to change  the deranged has no range on this plain They main line the auras  and then they saw us as Inferior  our exterior and interior From the way they look at us they abhor us
2.
Such a radical way of thinking as your ship is A slowly sinking  deeper every minute  while you are just sat there drinking One eye closed while the other does the winking  Staring into space and never blinking Clues you put together slowly linking Its slowly breaking me down Trying to decide to deride or snidely  hide While you take them for a ride and slowly burn your fucking pride  Pull your ego into Pieces , try and take another recess  Or are you too much of a princess to realise your life is Distressed  Purposely obtuse, you ain’t no fucking use , your ignorance is showing though you’re  Running out of juice  Running out of steam  Treat them mean to keep them keen , don’t kick up  A fucking scene if you do not have the means  stand up for what is right Not your usual fucking shite , just another guiding light for right wrapped up in hate and spite  Wrapped up in sin an pain they just will not ever refrain from trying their best to destroy me and lobotomise my brain

FATE 03:45
I may be deaf but I’m not dumb and blind and I still ain’t got a clue how to read your fucking mind How to find the time to not overstep the line And define what is mine when In the middle of your kind Kind. Of sucks if I’m honest if you really want to know Second guesses every time and your motives don’t show , show you up, shut you up and sew your little mouth Cos the words are coming out but they’re heading kind of south Of the border full of boredom , full of more doom is it your room Is it my tomb so assumed when we both just peak too soon Still Haven’t got a clue what’s going on with you tired of second guessing, what the fuck I’m meant to do not easy to decipher ,just another Fucker’s life and Their schemes and little plans and demands are out of hand Under hand untermensch Understand this munter land I ain’t got a fucking clue what the fuck you trying to do What the hell you trying to say so let’s cut the Fucking crap and just tell me anyway Don’t waste my time away I do not want to fucking to play this stupid fucking game My head is spinning me up and down in and out and round and round and round Lost and found so alone without a sound and down an out in a strangers land or town A strangers frown to bring you down to act a clown all gagged and bound It’s bound to fail the hammer hits nail , a troublesome tale of gigantic scale Scale the walls the fools will follow the shallow will swallow whatever they’re served whatever they deserve is kept in reserve disturbed and perturbed For the sick and perverted Diverted from here That much is clear It’s no longer here . Cos theres too much fear Fate, there aint much to it Its true No way of knowing Its you No way of showing The truth It time to break off from you

Tell your ugly mates to meet me round the back  And attract and detract holds you back from their crap  From their trap don’t react or they’ll stab you in the back till you crack with a snap  And a crushing of bones  And a beeping of phones  And tye groans and moans  And the type that lives alone to atone for their sin from within deeply grin until you turn the other wing  Living in these times I have to reinvent my rhymes and my crimes that I shine don’t define where I climb , not a sign from the line  And the whiney folks who pine for the times now long passed, ghost of the past the laugh that doesn’t last the fucking crazy farce  The Circle spinning round getting closer to the ground to be found with no sound deep inside the underground  The ever spinning wheel slowly changing how we feel no big deal break the seal make a meal of every yield  Wear a shield work the fields spoil the kids keep it hid from a system of control that wants to grind you into dirt  Into dirt  Into hurt  So you work and you work  Doing every thing you can til they hatch their little plan for the man to pass a baN  Just because they fucking can . Stand at the back while your mates smoking crack just looking for some tact to attack the distracted  From reacting or enacting their wildest desires  On fire in the mire right down to the wire  Right down the fucking throat  Shoved down with hate and glee Can’t youfucking see this ain’t no mystery to me

don’t know how to say it but all keeps going wrong No matter how hard we try We just can’t get along Every direction we turn banging our heads against the wall^ Another badge is earned The idiot and the fool Fractured cycle the snake consumes us all Tail to mouth the oroborous shall fall Self destruction takes a critical piece of us all One step forward an another two back is the rule You want and you crave but you can’t even see what you’ve got All Grass is greener except that its actually not Searching for fairytales easiy to follow a myth Finding solutions you know that do not exist Take what you want Do what you say To tell the truth I was getting kind of tired Do what you want have it your way This situation is making me- so wired Your side of things my side of things And then the truth is in the middle cos were both fucking liars He did this she did that and they’re liar liar with their pants on fire

SPIRAL 04:22
Been at a crossroads lately time for existential angst questions keep appearing as I take another chance Self made isolation starts to cut a little deep Look a little further see the vines begin to creep The eyes begin to stare and scare me beyond compare When I try to see Theres a spiral inside of me It hurts to see The spiral inside of me Everything’s transforming and I’m bored of catching Up But choice is not an option when you feel like giving up Forced to play a role in a pointless childish game The illusion things are changing when in fact they’re still the same All the little sins that fuel this maelstrom deep within I can see the spiral inside of me It’s hurts to see The spiral inside of me Read between the lines because their words are camouflaged Learn to speak in riddles it will take you good and far No one wants the truth even when they beg for it When you do they’ll turn on you the evil fucking hypocrites Everything around spinning me into the ground I can see the spiral inside of me It hurts to see The spiral inside of me

I’m caught in a cycle of toxicity won’t someone come along and euthanise me Set me free let me be Let me be me For all to see to agree with my plea for relief Disbelief at the sheep who take a leaf from my book Or just look and copy everything that they see That define you and me Our personality Personally depleted competed defeated Deleted from view from me from you So what you gonna do When they turn on you When they stab you in the back as they always do Live in the shadows a ghost never seen Transparent to all but those who demean You mean the demons and backstabbing pricks Those hicks with their sticks and their tricks and their quips Get a grip get a hold of the stories were told by the tories of old just to keep some control So turn on the switch and turn round the dial The vile by a mile are still in denial Defiant Compliant A giant of tasks ,we ask non the less to take on their class those arseholes those trolls They’re still on a roll To quieten your soul For the sake of their toll . Tat is for tit and they don’t give a shit if you spit or hit in their hypocrite clique In their chamber of echos their emptiness shows resentment grows until nobody knows How to act how to live how to take how to give How to be understood Under them it’s no good The natural order A tall fucking Order Distort and ignore Like those from before The self centred type Those chasing the hype The hyper the sniper the killer the Striker The waste of ambition tradition comes first Eventss turning worse when your bringing the cursed This cycle is so toxic, so poisonous and fucked If your looking my way then your out of fucking luck I wish I could break through like everyone one and you But I too am seduced Washed up and fucking used Abused to just amuse Diffuse their shitty news With horrendous fucking views And cancer ridden human zoos So how about you show us how were meant to hunt Time to practice not just preach You bunch of fucking cunts You bunch of nothing men Just working through the motions Forever and again Forever and more I dont want it anymore I can’t take it anymore So leave it at the door With the helpless and the poor

Brexit Brenda’s on the blower again  calling everyone scum it’s fucking insane  Talks about the jubilee like it wss yesterday  Pictures of the queen hanging everywhere in gilded frames  Lady di mugs for the mugs like her and hers  Thatcher in her front room I can’t think of nothing worse  Loves her fucking town but only tye white parts  She’s just like all the other mother fucker fascist fogey farts  Conservative Chris is banging on the door  Telling tales of Churchill and two world wars  Talks a fuckin of a lot about the  old empire  And I’m pretty Damn sure he’s a holocaust denier  Conservative Chris is a man of contradictions  Says he loves his country but I think that that’s just fiction  Devoid of humour , friendliness and charm  And I swear I saw a swastika, tatted on his arm  Brexit Britain welcome to the uk Old fascist Fred could have sworn that  he was dead  He used to be a racist  skin and now he’s just a ted Beating up those little kids it makes him feel so tough Master race my fucking arse he’s just a fucking scruff His house is full of union jacks and totenkopf ss He’s got third reich pyjamas and a hitler mini dress  A copy of mein Kampf Which he reads when he’s in bed  He’s Never been fucking right I think he is inbred Loving grandma Eileenand her 35 grandkids  Thinks people should be put to death instead of benefits  Goes on about her olden days where life was pretty hard  Summers in her caravan parked firmly in her yard  Gets all her information from the fucking daily rags  Anyone that isn’t white are pricks or fucking slags  Anyone without a job to her are lazy fucks  wait till fucking one of hers is down and out of luck

TRAUMA 04:02
TRAUMA c) There is no love just more abuse just more set loose We’re not amused There is no help just more to hate Replace your fate with another dead weight Reach out your hand their is no lover Just hell to pay and pain to smother No one is coming to save you my friend You’re on your own forever amen 1)Feeling out of sync Everyone else seems to get the beat All the missing links And the carcasses and death were forced to seek Hiding in the crowd Never had a spare minute to feel complete 2)I used to be afraid of the dark But it’s men not monsters who are hiding in the park Those were much simpler days Before experience and life taught me to hate There’s something to be said for innocence But we become so heavy with our negative traits 3)I used to think everyone was kind But that was long before they shattered my mind Those put in charge are way too much Putt themselves in a place where they can hurt and touch Things seen and done when innocent so small Things that corrupt And smother you all

Start the input early all the images are ready Time to start the repetition pump it in now slow and steady Drip it in so sly and sneaky making changes quick and easy turn what soft back into to jelly as your blankly watching telly we make violent minds we live in violent times Running up and down weeding out the weakest clown breaking egos That’s where we go so save the pretty frown The pattern has began the spider webs already spun Now steady stream a psyche that will settle every one we make violent minds we live in violent times Slow indoctrination is your brain still on vacation Do you really love this nation or is that self flagellation Did the dawn of realisation have you running to the station, No time for silly answers when you’re leaving civilisation we make violent minds we live in violent times Iron out the weeds and the little shits that feed On deceit they are bleak And unique with their disease And the ideas that they feed and the mindless that they bleed have decreed there’s always need to germinate these demon seeds

only child 01:27
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na I'm the only fucking child there ever was I'm the only fucking child Adulthood is hell Namby-pamby protracted childhood The only alternative Namby-pamby protracted childhood Earthworks of infantility The facts of life cleaned from passion-killing anotomical tomes You don't need pot to see Pan. You don't need pot to see Pan I'm a little girl I'm a little girl I'm a little girl I'm a little girl And I formed a dislike for killing things which could not fight back Childish and childlike My rocking horses at the head of the stairs My rocking hearses I am Providence I am Providence I am Providence I am Providence And Providence is me
