zs (band) - nobody wants to be had lyrics

light spread evenly across the scene
all the girls’ flesh was equally pale
when you can’t tell the supposed position of the sun, everything glows the same
light everywhere, light everywhere
light deflected by the ornate robes of gold that denied my eyes entrance
and made them run wild in the claustrophobic foreground
every face was the same size rendered with equal clarity
each one was given the same small dignity, wild, wild proliferation
all heads were locked into the round hills, frontal or in sharp profile
the vast field of rhyming ovals voiced their disapproval
of my oblique attempts to order them according to size
show me something i can’t see through
show me something i can’t see into
everything else will be met with raised eyebrows
show me something i can’t see through

they were shadowless
no one’s drapery betrayed the volume of a body beneath
their robes bore the inscription “there is no body beneath”
no one can hold it anymore
something we used to want failed us
and now we speak a language that doesn’t have a word for it
a panel discussion ensued
it was determined that those trees aren’t really in the distance
they’re just smaller and more blurry
and it would be dangerous to try to look like we’re walking toward them
such is the seductive power of diagonal lines vanishing
n0body wants to be had
i am a thinking man and i’ve been had

don’t kiss into the distance, don’t kiss into the future
let kisses form their own ornamental plane here and now right in front of you
free from time, free from sp+ce, mouths run wild
and spit spreads evenly across everything
that’s how we glued the collage
get it up and push it to its logical extent
every face was different, each face was the same
every one was equally close, infinitely close
no one would be taken in

we’re safe for now
the sunset can’t be walked into because it’s always already right here
our promises can’t be made or broken because everything happens at the same time
we won’t have our loves ordered according to anything
we would rather live in fear of violence
no longer contained in the holding of hands
it comes and goes so strangely, where does it go
when the rhythm of sacrifice becomes unsteady
murder takes to the street, blood slips off the altar tops
blood everywhere
blood everywhere, blood everywhere
blood everywhere, blood everywhere
blood we washed off our hands and released from the regular pulse of our hearts
stop here, stop here
go in any further and you’ll disappear
stop here, stop here
go in any further and you’ll disappear
here everything is big and available
i don’t want any trouble
