lyrics

gray green steam
birthing machines
i've never been clean
safer when i'm mean
loved him more
than my grandpa
i cried more
than when i dumped her
the ghosts of paper bags
tied wet around my hands
burning bloody flags
straining rubber bands

chorus:
a pregnant silence
i feel something catch
tearing my face
my ears her chalice
a pregnant silence
i feel something catch
tearing my face
don't feel so jealous
a pregnant silence
i feel something catch
tearing my face
my ears her chalice
a pregnant silence
i feel something catch
tearing my face
don't feel so jealous

she's been on the tip
a whole new context
smear make-up on her slip
with no real pretext
chewing her up
avoiding my life
her tooth chips
her blood in my mouth
avoiding it for months
build emotion debts
stab and thrust and pump
shallowing her depths

chorus

i
can't love you in a song
i
am gray and bursting in the dawn

chorus
chorus

about

Violence Mars San Francisco, California

I grew up in the hellpits of Michigan, hid myself in Detroit techno, synthpop, Motown, punk rock, Commodore 64, sci-fi and horror films. Now I bleep and bloop in San Francisco, where the air is poison and dog shelters send robots to harass homeless people.
