lyrics

I want to fucking smash things
Some things
Your things

I want to see something beautiful bleed
Something graceful limp
Something heinous thrive (that’s not our fucking government)

Give me lunacy in the streets
Pitchforks, fiery pyres of night terrors
shrieking in booms

I want to taste a sword deeper in my guts
than this pain
I currently know

I want to break something
So I can relate to it
Call it familiar

Call it mirror – bad luck –
The only way I know my reflection
Shattered, piled back together

Called whole
While being scattered
Wanting nothing

But to want nothing
Regardless of what I have…
I’d just break it anyway…
