touch of skin brings no excitement
justs a vague sense of obligation not to stop
clothes coming off
this kiss just feeling numb
shouldn't there be endorphins
assigned this partner by the algorith
isn't this what you wanted
is this not what you've been starving for
this is your validation
a checkbox ticked
to be able to say it's only been one day
since my last fuck
can't feel through this latex
can't feel through this inebriation
can't fell from just this anymore
this is what men do

Homecoming
01:53

I like what you've done with the place
Nightmares set here
memories of confinement
how the garden's changed since
Such a shame we had to meet this way
hands bound mouths gagged
promise i won't shoot
just wait another hour
in the dark the sounds of the neighbourhood haunt this house just like the living must haunt those who have no breath left to breathe i've come home now come out and play with me show me that life is more than just concrete and emptiness

i'm an arrogant destroyer
i'll take what i want
come between me and my comfort
i won't give it a single thought
drunk and i'm stupid
i'm horny and high
i'll take a shit in your garden
i don't care if it dies
i'm an arrogant destroy
and if i see you acting weird
i'm gonna tell you all about it
and make sure that i'm feared
arrogant destroyer
plastic runs in my veins
and if you try to warn me
i'll burn you at the stake
you can't tell me shit
i know everything
there is worth knowing
i will never quit
until
this whole world
is fucking spent
this whole world
push you down
take your life
force you, hurt you
traumatise
i am only taking what is mine
im an arrogant destroyer
my kingdom is here
my skin is made in sweatshops
my voice the grind of gears
i've got nothing but bug-eyed
vigilant distain
for anything that forces me
to engage my syphillitic brain

narrative dissonance
broke like a doorframe
strike without warning
black bag anonymous
into the unmarked van
brought before the blind ones
down comes the gavel
ten years, no trial
some kind of criminal for cooling local tensions
helping to keep the peace
better than any police
for brandishing a flag
the starry plough held high
trying to splint the wound
capitalist alienation
this is how we make you dissapear
out of sight
and out of mind
graffiti on the wall the only record left
they take anyone who steps outside the culling fields
so we must never yield

Legion of The Obscene
02:28
|

I sent my message and you found it
I come here from a corruption blackened time of greed
where crystalline ontologies metastasised and suffocated life
in unreality I learned a trick or two
I will show you
i will reach out and touch the sickly ones
transform their willing flesh
i know perfection
seeing you and i together
we can sculpt into a mirror
the only truth we've ever known
they will become like us
legion of the obscene
Artificial light
this putrid consensus reality
conforming to the camera eye
our miracles undone
in the vulgar gaze of the unworthy
I am extinguished at last
hall of fractured memories
calling out to anyone beyond the void
peering out from darkness
see the hazy forms of my family
and the gaze is off

SurgeryHead Ireland
A dark and dirty electrolike mutation forged from rusting wires and discarded circuitry.
A malformed
creature raised on a diet of 1980s horror movies, industrial EBM and slick french electro, SurgeryHead is music that you can mosh too as easily as it'll make you shake that which your putrid mother cursed you with.
