he's retching in the sand now
a slithering shaman bound now
to depths he's underground now
but luring with his tail now
in starlight now emerging
the moonlight serpent surging
bound to the snake I'm naked
i feel my soul awaken
I am the star slut
spread me wider
burst from my entrails
star viper
final frontier
crack me a beer
cut me out a line
of a supernova
blinding starshine
serpent tooth grind
lusting for the sun
and burning another one
burn it
riding on the horsehead nebula
upstream this thirsty stardust
dilate the black hole now
I am the star slut
spread me wider
burst from my entrails
star viper

Fire on the Beach
04:12
|

|
rising from the street
a midnight summer scream
guttersweat breeds gutterlust
lets build a fire on the beach
light it up
light me
she's on fire
smokeshow effigy
ashes in the tidepools
floating out to sea
driftwood pyres herald moonlight
tide thrash
baby, I'm tide trash
set me alight

I've been a waste for long damn time now
I'm living out of control
My only light is the one on the console
when I take her out on a roll
I been awake for a long, long time now
But I have never been one to go
so long I'm behind this long line
White-knuckled and always in control
night cracks open
the highway weeps
put the pedal down
im on my knees
chasing chaos
in a leather seat
she runs on fumes
or is that just me
she lives inside the red
lean against the end
or just upon the eye
of the deep night
bleed the fire
fan the night
chewing drywall
and cosmic light
so long im behind this line
as the stars melt away
my heart is on fire
i dont know if i can feel much
but i felt like this for sure
wood paneled walls dissolve into pools of lampshade indigo
I've never known a greater love...

Gassin' up
underground
smut garage
Ford Probe
Dodge Dart
hula girl on the dashboard
Armor all
Pennzoil
battery acid lucid dream
tape deck
8 track
my cinnamon girl
tire iron
speaker wire
pricks of blood in the solder joints
cinderblock country club
smut garage
purebread
hosscat
bleeding grease into the night
the wrench
the nut
the calm
the fumes
the mag light
my god she is purring just right
gun it

Stellar Fuck Inferno

compressed into this cosmic slime
a stellar-fuck-inferno
ill never be the same again
slipping deeper to this wormhole
im drifting between space and time
the leaves and lines and pages
i am the whisper in the night
i am the sour hymn
cleopatra
wanna meet ya
and helen too
and marie, fucking curie
and jackie o
the lady
of wessex
she's aethelfled
such a hottie
kinda naughty
lets get to bed
catherine the great
lets copulate
catherine the great
now im stuck in
a russian prison
my time is up
turns out the tsarina
she's had enough
moscow babes
her pet names
cant save my life
im bound for
the white north
my sure demise
but I escape
into a cave
two oil eyes
stare into mine

Underground starlight
meaning fades...
geolumiescent twilight
follow down a-ways
surrender time, don't speak
lead me along
echoes rise, vapor seeps
a sudden, wistful song
given this lifetime
the grit in the sinew
i don't know how long i can go
its never felt quite right
how could it with you?
i don't know how I'll ever see the sun
ever down, heavy chest
muted echo tones
heel over head, stone pressed
they'll never find my bones
given this lifetime
the grit in the sinew
i don't know how long i can go
its never felt quite right
how could it with you?
i don't know how I'll ever see up

Launch the Cross

disciples
and acolytes
chafing in this sackcloth
blind but still believers
the tellers of the tale
one way trip
to eden
this place is a bit unkempt
hang god
on a molten nail
launch the cross into the sun
launch the fucking cross
St. Paul the deciever
late to the word happenstance believer
politicing against the rock
now mothers
and grandmas
bow to the lord on a floor unswept
back flips of the soul a lot

Bag of Hammers

oh captain my captain
the wheelman, the swab
the cook and the crewman
the thunder and dawn
The sea and the evening
and the howling wind
the moonlight bleeds in sorrow
split the storm, chart a course
in the night, follow stars
horizon drawn, with one eye
strap me down
before I fly away tonight
draw long sighs from the local sirens
kept me humble
for drip and a drop tonight
paint my name behind her eyelids
set alight the drip of the cane and I'll
gouge my eye before I'll set it down now
tip my hat to a dame in the corner
she'll scale the mast before the morning
split the storm, chart a course
in the night, follow stars
horizon drawn, with one eye

8-Bit Sun

There's a hair-pin-trigger
it keeps me chewin on a noose
its some star-dust, darlin'
its dripping down my spine
...Don't you know I feel alright?
like an eel-skin blanket
that keeps us wrapped a little tight
I'm such a shock slut, honey
like static in the blinds
and you know I feel
don't you know I feel
alright
wide-eyed
under my
8 bit sun
darlin' I'm so fried
I think I need another one
you're a hair-pin trigger
you keep me chewin on life
such a shock-slut, honey
tightening the wind
but don't you know I feel...
don't you know I feel...
don't you know I feel alright.

Invisible Oranges had it right calling this record "shimmering." Light glinting off the leaves of the Appalachian foothills suffuses this record. Great songwriting that keeps you engaged even in repeating verses, and emotional chord choices that invoke that special, yearning kind of good melancholy. And kudos to the synth/keyboard work for being right on point, fleshing out the sound without taking over and getting corny.
