here in the dark i am strong i beat my fists against your chest and reshape your bones to fit my needs and i'm not going to eat again because food only brings me pain i'm going to be beautiful my body will float above my bed held there with rope and like some summoning ritual from your childhood you'll trace your fingers around each of my ribs and you won't be able to look me in the eye for weeks

Ascetic Vows 06:52
Cannot look at my own face Salted wound Fragrant, demure and contorted beyond recognition Knowing nothing Out of tune and fuzzy Lessons Learned Nodding off Driving home with my pants down
4.
She laid her head on my chest As the sun burned down the west There's one thing we still got This one last dance in this parking lot Oh yeah, I, I got a heart of darkness Oh yeah, I, I got a heart of darkness Then she woke up into the fire And the flames kept dancing higher Satan would laugh at her screams Then she woke up from her dreams Oh yeah, I, I got a heart of darkness Oh yeah, I, I got a heart of darkness
5.
Driving home after the party I can’t wait to get there To fantasize about you Staring at the ceiling Clutching your mattress Choking on your spit Crying for forgiveness Cant stop falling not in love
6.
I saw my master cry I saw him wither and die He left me with his debt

Cliffs 04:03
Your love leads me to Cliffs I should be used to this but I'm so fucking naive Silence sends me to that edge I should have stayed in bed but I thought it was a dream and this why we can't have nice things and this is why we destroy everything and this is why we prolong the suffering more and more intimacy looks like hate all the bruises fade but the feelings stay the same maybe one day you'll fly free but you're ill like me and someones clipped your wings and this is why you're always fallings and this is why it wont stop hurting and this how you prolong your suffering more and more we all want someone there to show they care but where the hell were you? birds circle over my head I wish I were dead and I wish you were too this is why we can't have nice things this is why I've destroyed my being and this how you prolong the suffering more and more

about

"Grant ye to me that I may come before you, I am pure, I am like a god.

I am endowed with a Spirit-soul.

I am strong.

I am endowed with a Heart-soul.

I bring unto you incense, and spice, and natron.

I have done away with the chidings of your mouths. I have come, I have done away the evil which was in your hearts, and I have removed the offences which appertained to you [against me].

I bring to you deeds of well-doing, and I present before you truth.

I know you.

I know your names.

I know your forms which are not known.

I come into being among you.

My coming is like unto that god who eateth men, and who feedeth upon the gods.

I am strong before you even like that god who is exalted upon his pedestal, unto whom the gods come with rejoicing, and the goddesses make supplication when they see me.

I have come unto you. I have ascended my throne like your Two Daughters.

I have taken my seat in the horizon. I receive my offerings of propitiation upon my altars.

I drink my fill of seth wine every evening.

I come to those who are making rejoicings, and the gods who live in the horizon ascribe unto me praises, as the divine Spirit-body, the Lord of mortals.

I am exalted like that holy god who dwelleth in the Great House.

The gods rejoice greatly when they see my beautiful appearances from the body of the goddess Nut, and when the goddess Nut bringeth me forth."

about

Foie Gras San Francisco, California

"Foie Gras is unabashedly loud and mystic, gentle and soft. Guitar driven, she lives at the intersections of secure drone and reimagined Americana, as if Brian Eno and Patsy Cline have committed themselves to an endless and passionate love affair. Wake up, this is where your daughters have wandered off to." ... more
