ishroyale - manhattan babies don't sleep 'til dawn lyrics

charlatan box+man, unspoken wheelchair, traveling salesman, infants in refrigerators, bagpipes abide like a javelin in stride or a razor+blade through cellophane

pipe+dreams of holograms sharing the load, makeup on styrofoam houses and so, i’m immune to the surgeries, hollowed and t++thing, fl+stered when breathing too slow. sink the boat. earthly possessions to barnacles lest they can float

imitate lightning under intimate lighting when halcyon hours are few and so frightening, calendar for every year, courage for everyday. the lamplight, sporadic and restless, the bus that never came, until the morning, betrayed us, beginning all the same, a folding house on alien terrain, like iodine on the gum+line, plywood dissipates

fingertips of rust like aged sandpaper, hungry for the spill of blood, from an aimless razor, organized divides, you were not in the desert, defanged, detalonized by endless orgies

carcinogen mucus, and the taunting scent of, the shape of your neck and your br++sts, pressed in blankets, the leather remembrance of a dream, pestilent, ephemeral and screaming

i am a sp+ceship, dried mollusk husk, pacified plainsman inhabiting palaces in dust, that wither the wisps, displaced but don’t desist, satiate the centrifuge, within the cemetery ‘neath the aviary, pygmy owls fill the mortuary, simply put we’re the adversary, consequence failed by vocabulary
we are a house, this is a home. milky smoke drapes the downtown sprawl like the remnants of a ghost, that threatens it’s return, bloodletting and taciturn, gnawing at the crust like a sunburn, clawing at discarded snakeskin, or a horsehair jacket in turin, porcelain portraits, petty and worthless are the things that come closest and inhabit our wilderness. aching and flawed, nodding along, to the sifting hours and transiting. a sigh is just a song, and an album is just an artifact
