Be Like Water

Don’t chase ghosts
Don’t get too close
Don’t get caught
Don’t get spent
Don’t get bought
Don’t sell out
Don’t get bent
Don’t fuck your best friend
If everything is just the way it should be
Why am I still hungry
Be Like Water
Don’t be shy
Don’t shut your eyes
Don’t get high
Expand your mind
Don’t keep in touch
Don’t touch yourself
Don’t ever wanna be somebody else
When everything is bad as it can be
Never be angry
Be Like Water
Must be the answer you want
I’m not your slave
I’m not the one who burnt you out
Fucked you up and put you on
Broke you down
Ask someone else
To be that someone
I can’t be that someone
Who can be like water
Why can’t I be the answer you want

Wrong Side Up

Wrong side up
How I like to be
In my comfortable highchair of agony
And from here
Things are looking pretty fucked up
Wrong side up
Buried in here somewhere is the reason
Maybe I don’t care enough to find it
Just to appease you would be wrong
Just to write another song
Forgive this hole that is my heart
That’s had enough
Wrong side up
If you were not would I still be
Now inside the ground
A victim of this age
A little bit of nothing
Goes a long way
Maybe I’ll find what’s right
Now that I’m wrong side up

Virus
04:02
|

Everyday she wallows in her dream
Pacing back and forth
With nothing in between
The devastated girl has given up
The boy has fallen to the fate of luck
But tells her with a slight smile
It’s just a virus
She laid on him
And I can’t touch it
It’s buried in
And it’s all for nothing
This web of you
Is just a cycle of abuse
Since you said it’s fine
I might believe
Dirty girls are easy to deceive
A penny for your thoughts
Or just to take your clothes off
I’d rather dull the pain
Than stand out in the rain
To catch the virus
That seems to be
The undercurrent of my insanity
The lowest layer that has been fused
Beneath my cycle of abuse
It’s just a virus
He says to me
It’s not quite the prison
You make it out to be
Too bad you’re dying
Too bad but true
As is this cycle of you

Alien Boys

|

|
The alien boys are here today
Clicking their heels behind me
Chatter boy toys
They couldn’t find me
I’m floating above
I wanted to show you
The milk of the moon
You couldn’t get past my name
If there is life in this room
I invite it to leave
Never come back again
They come from the dark
They hide right behind the sun
In beams of the dead they travel
They travel too far
To tear me up
To break me down
To put me into the lion’s mouth
To tear me up
You broke me down
You put me into the lion’s mouth
And I want you to know
You tore me up
You broke me down
Alien boy

Smoke
04:33
|
|||
|
Everything that I love
Turns to smoke
It billows out from nothing
Laughing at my cries
Holding the charred remains
Of the last dirty joke
As if they know
How it died
Everyone that I’ve loved
Has turned to smoke
They come in single file
And exit two by two
As if they knew
What was to come
That I’m happier in the rain
Than the sun
And now every day that has come
Has turned to smoke
Still I hesitate to ask the great above
What I have done
As it crashes through my system
Creation laughs at one
With nothing but
All there ever was

Spit Trap Ghetto
02:39
|
|||
|
Crazy getting silly with a fat old man
And his alligator hands so cold
Rubbin’ me down with a toothless frown
Says he’d give twenty dollars to juke his load
Schizophrenic Simon
With his crack jaw hacksaw
Dirty Motherfucker look
Everybody wants some
Blood from babies
Street cracked daisies
Get ‘em at the dollar store
Gia is forever
All paper clipped together
With her Christ magazines
And smoke stained teeth
Totally high
Ready to die
Revved up and ready to fly
Spit Trap Ghetto

Lioness
02:52
|
|||
|
I’d like to get to know you
Let’s take off our clothes
And get close
There
And how about I circle you
Like a lioness
Licking her paws
Use your hands
Discover me
One kiss could lead us to bliss
Just one kiss
Oh I love it when you go down
And I get wet
And fall apart
You inspire me
One kiss could lead us to bliss

In The Red
05:31
|
|||
|
I’m kind of in a watercolor wasteland
The place you go to bow and pay the toll
A never-ending system of abrasions
Only there to control
The way you suck me up into a nightmare
The dirty way you cut me with a smile
And I hate to admit
How I love when you give it to me
In the red
Crying out
At the edge
Looking down
Every single minute takes an hour
When you’re in the power of the beast
There’s hate breeding hatred inside of my head
And there’s not that much left to be said
In the red
Crying out
At the edge
Looking down
When you’ve fallen below
All the shit you’ve been fed
And you feel like you’re gonna go mad
Then you know you have come out alive
More than dead

A Perfect Dream
05:52
|
|||
|
Halfway gone
Can’t find the path
You’ve fallen off
There’s this place in me for you
Elements of me
I see in twos
Me looking back at you
And there’s this place in me
To light this perfect dream
I hear the reverie
Please don’t apologize
You’ll be immortalized
In the weight of this melody
In the daze of my perfect dream
My Perfect Dream

Shadows and Dust
05:00
|
|||
|
And the ants go marching on
Through the hills they sing their song
For the good of the world
They carry on
But when the winter comes my darlings
Where will you go
I built a little shelter for your hearts
In my backyard
Man kills man
Man kills god
Man kills everything
That he can get his hands on
Governments are planning
Their next bombing masquerade
Who will do it first
And when they do
Who will get paid
Man kills man
Man kills god
Man kills everything
That he can get his hands on
Perhaps a single word
Before the sun begins to rust
Are we just shadows and dust

Salvia Path
13:06
|
|||
|
Everyone is moving
Everyone is floating around
Into with confusion
Never to be found out again
Once I found the reason
But lost it in a place I cant find
To a world that I don’t like
And I’m quick to assume
But never to ask
Will we ever go back to
Salvia Path
And it’s cold
Where the living don’t go
And everyone is moving
And everyone is safe
In the ground
And the scene
Is a perfect photograph
But we cannot go back to
Salvia Path
We cannot go back to
Salvia Path

Sarah Fimm recommends:
The Velvet Inks Of Space
by David Baron
David's musical sense is otherworldly and rare, offering me comfort when there seems to be none, lifting my spirit so that I may continue moving toward my purpose to create art with every breath.

Artistry in engineering and songwriting combine on this song. This is the best example of the 'ethereal but having substance' I say to describe her music.

Skin To Marrow

More glorious music by this improvising trio for the ages. They create songs that glide through the air like beautiful clouds.

The latest from Friederike Bernhardt is an absorbing work of electroacoustic composition, songs rippling like the Northern Lights.

The lush dream pop of A Beacon School combines effervescent melodies with driving percussion.
