Precious Time

Things You Said icon-external-link-12x12 icon-search-12x12 (track 02 from the Hvel LP by Árstíðir icon-external-link-12x12 icon-search-12x12 )

I thought you would stay here forever
I don’t want to
I don’t want you
Through these days I could never be around you, because I don’t want you

Charming as she was to me
Drifted blindly
This is how it feels?
Took me so long to see

If you sense this you’d better look around you, think it out too
Carry yourself in this manner, what we will do is deny you

Everything she used to be led me blindly
Is this how it feels?
Took me so long to see

I tried to help with the things you liked, but you took advantage of my precious time
Those selfish games have made me think things twice before I lift a burden to ease your mind

Things you said and the ways you lied made me read the writing and see the signs
The clock is ticking in your inward mind
Soon the flower fades and you’ve lost the time

Life is Bright!

A last minute decision
Lay it all on the line
Glasspipe recollections of antichrist, the nominees all on fire

Cash money upfront
We’re all a part of the scam
Dead stars at the end of a rope, a fake miracle to behold

Life is bright!
It will take out your eyes
Burn these lies
Cut away the ties

Ninety-nine knives inside

Separate the symptoms from the real disease
A pale ghost-like rendition of consequence, the irony covers the crime

Reenact the trauma
A safe pattern to fuse
Preteens giving head in the backroom
A family built on abuse

Life is bright!
It’ll take out your eyes
Burn these lies
Cut away the ties

Ninety-nine knives inside

Life is bright!
It’ll take out your eyes
Burn these lies
Cut away the ties

No one gets out alive

Ninety-nine knives inside

Ninety-nine hopeless useless empty ways to die

Have Another One of These

You and I can’t get much closer, in spite of what you want
I’m done explaining
I’m broke at best

Non-existent

I lay me down to sleep and disappear
Disappear

Why is it you have a question for every single thing I do?
Why is it you say you love me, but nothing is ever good enough for you?
What’s the matter now?
Have another one of these—this will take the edge off

I never knew what it would be
Decisions to be made
They will tell you what you said and what you did to break from the futility and run

You speak through comparison, you speak in tongues
You listen suspiciously for gaps in my adaptations
You have no magic touch, please stop trying
You’re sucking me dry

I never seemed to get it right
It’s like a shadow hanging over me
You were the first, you were the last
If there’s a God, release me from my past

I lay me down to sleep and disappear
Disappear

Nonverbal Communication

One of these blue hedgehogs has rabies. Can you tell which?
