lyrics

earthquake jaw, knives of stone
erupt from pink ridges
slice through inflamed taut
trash compactor mouth meat
limbs crack length & torsion
sanguine skin stretches
slow motion savagery
all growth is pain
you are young & i am old
your fat boils
you are strong & i am brittle
the scum obeys
mother's trauma brain dust
stress sightless hammer
you wore her, ripped her
bathed in degraded sick
you swelled her feet, spine
now anemic nausea sleepless
your gummy idiot smile
your stink of helplessness
gush from bitten tongue
swallowed psychic slaughter
exploding bodies feed
slobber covered knives
i skinned my sister
for her arousal
they crowned me prom king
youth is a ravager
you are young & i am old
your fat boils
