• The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me

When I disappear do you fear for the sister I took?

When I disappear it is clear I am up to no good

I am drearily bloodletting this bedwetting cosmonaut

“Son, the last thing you’ll realize you need is what you’ve already got”

So touch me or don’t

(Just let me know

Where you’ve been)

Please drop me a line with a hook and some raw bleeding bait

(one two three four)

For I am uncaught and still swimming alone in the lake

(five six seven eight)

(the lake)

Shimmering under a moon made in anger and haste

Shimmering like a penny out of reach in the subway grating

(Shimmering like a coin kept safe away - You never listen to anything)

We could leave it alone,

(I’m sure there’s someone who knows

Where you’ve been)

You could never work well with our group

Not with the faults we found

So we fixed you with cement galoshes

And no one can save you now

Unless you have friends among fish

There’ll still be no air to breathe

You could drink up the entire ocean

We’ll still find someone to be everything we know that you’ll never be

Or we could leave it alone

(I’m sure there’s someone who knows

Where you’ve been)
