I've gotten very very good at being alone
Keep the muses' feet dry
Dry

Out out out out

Competition toothless but well-fed
If there is any competition at all

I just bought an old radio
I'm turning on my radio

Every little thing we do has been done
Might as well be having No Fun
Apologies are in order
I'm breaking out the old recorder

Creepers abound
Do not get drunk and
Half-brag
Humble brag
That heaven wasn't walled in
Heaven wasn't walled in
It's worth more than blood to the hounds
It's worth more than blood to the hounds of hell
Numb like an arm in a heart attack
I'm used to you

I lost my keys and I panicked but then I remembered
My whole house burned down in a wildfire last night
I saw a wolf and I panicked but then I remembered
He's stranded on that chunk of melting ice
We keep pretending that nothing is happening and
We keep pretending that nothing is happening and
Weeeeeeeeeeeeee
We keep pretending

Tyrant of wasteland won't
Give up his stolen throne
The snake that eats its own
Is gagging on the bone
An ending apropos
To such a killer show
And we're off the air

Bomb Drop Selfies

|
It rolls off
Nowadays
Set to drown
Set ablaze
No big deal
Let it go
Skinwalkers
Wendigos
Shrug it off
Pass the buck
Play pretend like we ain't fucked
What's the diff?
It ain't healthy
When the bomb drops we'll all be talking selfies
Shrug it off
Pass the buck
Play pretend like we ain't fucked

Make Like It's Earth
02:05
|

|
Shake like you mean it
Quake like it's Earth
Forget where
You are
Fake like
We're fine
Make like
We never left
Forget where you are
Something to sow
Something to grow
Something edible
Until the next food drops

Benjamin Lee Farley Asheville, North Carolina
Never took a lesson in my life. All songs written, played, sung/sang/sing-ed, produced, computerized / all album covers made
by Ben unless otherwise noted.
NONE of my sounds are made with Artificial Intelligence, just a few album covers. Is anybody reading this? If so thank you. If not, then I guess I can say whatever I want because you'll never read it. So fuck you I guess? Just kidding madluv.
