Ordinary horrors

Craving
for the spoon to take my own eyes out
carve them out, stick them forward
numb the pain
use your nails
as it has never been as clear before
I can finally see
with a new point of view
the issues lying within
the madness in each blind corner of my sight
the ruthlessness of this city
ready
to swallow your body
to dissociate your conscience
to kill your desire

That’s where everything started
that’s where everything will end
your biological clock is ticking
tick
tick
tick
how many seconds until your end
how many seconds for your brain to melt
no matter where you are
you’re gonna be stuck there

Desire
for the knife to caress my own stomach
chisel it out, show the bowels
let them flow
let them fall
as it has never been as clear before
I can finally feel
with the instincts of my guts
the issues lying within
the madness in each blind corner of my depths
the malice of these villagers
ready
to swallow your goods
to deny your life
to go for the kill

That’s where everything started
that’s where everything will end
your biological clock is ticking
tick
tick
tick
how many seconds until your end
how many seconds for your brain to melt
no matter where you are
you’re gonna be stuck there

Reaching
for the sledgehammer to crash my own skull case
smash it, take it to pieces
free yourself
it’s not too late
as it has never been as clear before
I can finally understand
with my mind all over the place
the issues lying within
the madness in each blind corner of my brain
the iniquity of this land
ready
to receive your body
to dissolve your conscience
to finally accept you.
