Chapter on Indifference


Tonight has been a rather special night
Brain pollution and hysteria dripped from the back of a trolley bus

This entire suburb is stricken by stable paranoia and
scarred memories, stored in tapes, for you to play and repeat

Your forehead's missing parts, and charts, and hearts
A sense of constant threat slowly begins to set in

On my chair, my second-hand existence is firmly stuck
Can't you hear all the blasts of disquiet in my heart?

Feelings sadistically extracted,
systematically suffocated in each other's identity

I'm a hostage of my very own emotional minefield
My pillow now dreams instead of me

All walls are in denial, all door knobs put me on trial
Hit by a ceiling conspiracy, dreams keep getting harsher

I'm not being me, so don't take it hard
Keep counting inanimate objects, bugs, and falling stars

And the bed will laugh, and the pots will huff, and the kettles will puff

The clock on the wall already screams enough

There's too much nothing,
though my mind will exhaust every brain cell
coping with
you


Stab me, Carole


We are characters in different books.
We'll never meet each other.

We are villains of different films.
We'll never shoot each other.

I'm the dreamer and you're the dream.
Excessive sunlight beam!

Oh, stab me, Carole.
With the sharpest blade in the world.
Oh, stab me, Carole.
Cos it's not going to be the first time. Twirl!

A cloud slicing the moon in half.
Your razor slicing, again, my heart.

Don't talk about destiny. These are lands without a place.

I'm the dreamer and you're the dream.
Excessive sunlight beam!

Oh, stab me, Carole.
With the sharpest blade in the world.
Oh, stab me, Carole.
Cos it's not going to be your first time. I'm sure!

Aim.
Stab.
Don't
miss.
