about

I played this song busking once because a man wanted to hear what I write. I played it, he said, "Fuck you." and walked away.

Way too fucking long. However, I miss playing it so much. -Anthony

lyrics

I've got a glass in my hand, spilled half of it on the floor.
It was a tasty treat. Cigarettes and coffee, and DDT.
A little bird told me I'm a nihilist with a misanthropic side.
I said, "Your glass is always half empty when you're the pessimist of pesticides.

I want negation. (Blacked out, the pain id gone.) I want out.

Whips and chains, a dog groping my leg.
A burnt out snail pulling the puppy-dog’s tail.
How like man's best friend to be his closest enemy for all eternity.
The hell-hound roared, the dingo cried, and the hyena giggled.
The hippo sat, the field mouse' skull was cracked and the boy loathed in shit.

"So much for letting go, wake up begin again. Haven't you got your fill today? Premisses you swore to keep were too much for you to bear. I'll just sit and clench the pain away."

Watch the hare challenge the turtle to a rat race.
I find myself in the same old place,
a manic state. Some sort of pleasant nausea and constant pain.
I feel exhausted and sick like a cripple running the same race with a blindfold on, getting sodomized and beaten with a stick.

It's a disease, a constant critique that's got me grinding my teeth. Dis-logic logorrhea. It's like my thoughts are stains, and I need bleach. Phase of the day: Feel my fucking hate.
