MY BODY IS AN OLD FILM

My body is an old film
Disintegrated echoes
Picking up dust
Born-again pixels
When I die how will they dress me
Cause suits and ties depress me
Picking up dust
Worrying a lot
I wish my body was a melody
And I could tweak its chemistry
Reverb it til it clips
Sing it like an elegy
Distort it til it fits
Dance along endlessly
Death of the image, reborn and dismantled
Now I'm finding power in the sample
They don't believe the lie
Crossfade me to the light
I'm the image of the knife spilling latex guts
I'm the scabbing over time of cotton wool blood
But I don't believe the lie
Crossfade me to the night
Don't miss me
I'm right here

maybe don't go yet
but i'm already a ghost
what the body doesn't know yet
i'm already a note
maybe don't go yet
but i'm already a ghost
what the body doesn't know yet
i'm already a note in a song

ANON

etch a sketch arms
like i was drawing up the blueprints
sharpie pen and pin, tracing veins to where the truth hid
little map of angry lyrics on my blue skin
hoodie in the heat, bloody passages are pooling
i was in a daze for months, but no one knew it then
i was missing days for months, and going through it then
i had to take the blame for crumbling and blueprinting
i was sitting by the pool, trying to keep it hidden
bend my skinny body, crumble over a torn canvas
pray to all my favourite bands that they would heal the damage
fix me fix me fix me, i love you so much it hurts, anon
be my laptop light until the sunrise, anon
i was emailing a stranger who died anon
or maybe they didnt and lied
bodies pixelated, webcam call with a ghost
it was desperate and distant, but to us it felt close
pictures of alone
i tried to recreate
like everything i'd known

LIGHT&COLOUR
06:42
|

it's hard to find words
to summon up the hurt
it's hard to write skin as it slips
light and colour
it's hard to find words
to clarify the hurt
it's hard to speak the thoughts inside your head
light and colour
is it hard to write a song?
does it help to make something out of space?
does it help project a body in its place?
light and colour.

young hands held the cam

i could be a girl in the viewfinder

Irena

so scared of my guts
but forgetting the air they spill into
i stopped taping it shut
an experiment in what comes crawling out
and we wait and we wait
irena
there's something in me too
and i wanna talk about it
with you
irena
there's something in me too
and i wanna cry about it
with you
collected dresses to wear one day
collecting dust so my skin can get a taste
it's always death tryna take my place in the
projected pictures on empty spaces
i know you're not a ghost
but they haunt themselves to our graves
sharpened pitchforks and flames
and we wait and we wait
irena
there's something in me too
and i wanna talk about it
with you
irena
there's something in me too
and i wanna cry about it
with you
