1Stalagmites, stalagtites (sic)
Your incisors are so bright.
Quiet days, epileptic nights.
Sleeping in the strobe lights.
Wine stains on your favorite rug.2
There's a hole where the living room was.
No reason, it's just because
Now's the time to destruct.
Are you coming with me, are you coming with?
Broken bottles on the kitchen floor.
Shards of glass make an obstacle course.3
We're treating habits like they're open sores.
Scratching at the back door.
Are you coming with me, are you coming with?
I don't want to make ammends. (sic)
I just want to make a mess.
All I see now are tectonic plates colliding.4
I don't want to make ammends.
I want to make a mess.
I'm not leaving till we dismantle the boxspring.
I don't want to make ammends.
I want to make a mess.
All I see now are tectonic plates colliding.
I don't want to make ammends.
I want to make a mess.
I'm not leaving till we pave over the ashing.5
I don't want to make ammends.
I don't want to make ammends
I just want to make a mess.
