lyrics

doused appleway

he stretched the desert flat and read tea leaves to understand
he monitored the pulse of oracles and television screens
he ate apples doused with gasoline to prove them all wrong
and shot open a mouth filled with razor blade teeth

marble eyes see nothing but the lies
thoughts choked on ozone and the seeds of dead hopes
kindness and eyes full of ash he stares
tongue tripped up with unclean fingertips

he marveled at the hoover dam and sank all the way to the end
once dusty toes and wrinkled eyes snapped shut he saw visions
dead gypsy silhouettes in the silt passages
he continued to breathe in the water to fill up his lungs

he never said another word to anyone but himself
how could they listen anymore
they all know nothing grows in concrete
and no one dreams in acetone
