I killed a man on the edge of the sea and he looked from his grave and spoke to me "I don't blame you, I know what you mean" So I lay with him there and became we I flew with a sinner to the worlds end and there I found that spirit will only bend I took the talons of the falcon that it used to rend and I slit the wrists of those who would defend I dug with a whore to the center of heaven There we sung and danced and did the Seven Deep inside the holy realm we unmade Eleven and and our small changes used as leaven The end of the us all came in flame I sat in my motel and languished in fame Everyone I killed was more than fair game And they're with the one who gave us a name So I sit on my throne of skin and smirk Ending everything wasn't that much work So enjoy your eternity with that holy fucking jerk Live with me and hide and lurk From my point of view things went rather well The race of pigs was like an oak to fell Easier than you think to bring about the death knell and I've got a good view of chaos from my life in Hell.

A bombast of devils A chimney of djinn All are here When thou takest a sin A party of incubi An opulence of succubi Good times after Afterwards, a sigh A pantheon of gods A cavalry of Valkyrie We are dead Not one is free

"I totally understood that what filled us with energy could be toxic for someone else, especially Eve." One dark day in the middle of the night, The time was here, the moment was right. I took a step forward and a leap back, And threw away protection in defense of the attack. Ruination and failure and smiles a-fly, I’d crashed and burned right into the sky. Nothing ever goes quite as planned, And failure is wrought when you take a stand. Ashes to fire and sand to erosion, Your hearts been heated until it’s frozen. Calamity strikes and the best emerges, But savants are smart enough to stifle those urges. I was shot down over an open field, And death but awaits me, held in her heel. Broken hearts can be mended with a circular saw, And the fight against defiance is one’s only flaw. Indeed what is stolen can be put to good use, You stole my heart, and I faked the truce. Come hither, come hither and then go away, No one must die to live this way. The volume of life is measured in pain, And by how much one’s willing to be hurt again. Overall the pain has left but a dent, When she says one thing and the meaning is different. Now if you’ll excuse me I have to pay my rent, And my jailor gets mad if the money’s content. Good-day and bright nights to all of your druthers, And may irritation and pain fall to all of the others. Please use truth to fend off the liars. And as a favor to me, Use flame on the fires.

Miss Antoinette she went out with a song Selling booze and silver shoes and singing right along. Shotgun and a limousine while the baby dolls march on Miss Antoinette she went out with a song. And it's a long way down Yeah it's a long way down. Down at the Maple Leaf they pack 'em in We all get sauced, turn down the house, so we start all over again. And tonight we'll all get reborn to a couple fifths of gin. (here we go) The rich boys get their money back when the banks go belly up But if you're downtown when the levees break well you're shit out of luck. (shit out of luck) And over at the place they train the guards With Stanton on the drums you don't need no one on guitar And sometimes all it takes is going way too far And it's the long way down Yeah it's the long way down Aw it's the long way down A long way down The rich boys get their money back when the banks go belly up But if you're downtown when the levees break well you're shit out of luck. The penthouse paupers need your help so everybody lend a hand And maybe they'll get you a real sweet price on Louisiana land Now Christ down on the street with his trombone And even though the 12-year olds have got in their bones Above these 20 blocks no one's alone The rich boys get their money back when the banks go belly up But if you're downtown when the levees break then you're shit out of luck. The penthouse paupers need your help so everybody lend a hand And maybe they'll get you a real sweet price on Louisiana land

I can only hope that when the end comes around, I’ll get to spend the final moments of the universal lie staving off the last with you The problem with Diaspora is the mean Miasma in my lungs without you Without you Except you’re here Even though you’re not I am not We are not alone

Lyrics by Heidi Benefiel One final dance Among the glances of everyone I've ever despised One middle finger to their Envious eyes, FUCKING LIARS Happiness in a red wine glass I drink to all their sadness I drink to you

Hella Squid 05:01
Squids I desire some squids Squids I really would like some squids Tall ones, fat ones, brown ones, green ones, Giant ones, small ones, orange ones Squids When you're a crustacean that's bad When you're a squid that's rad When there's something really cool my kid All you've got to say THATS HELLA SQUID Squids Things that are cool are squids Squids Things that aren’t cool are crabs Squids When you're a crustacean that's bad When you're a squid that's rad When there's something really cool my kid All you've got to say THATS HELLA SQUID They've got natural suction cups! Long arms, thick shells, bulbous eyes, They’ve got natural suction cups! natural Natural Au naturale natural Natural Au naturale Suction cups And a beak Giants are off the grid and I say… Hella squid Hella squid Hella Squid Hella Squid (etc) When you're a crustacean that's bad When you're a squid that's rad When you've got something really cool my kid All you've got to say That's HELLA SQUID

You were gone when we found you You were practically surrounded, you were trapped But the opposition stalled, their blood ran cold When they saw the look of love in your eyes Maybe the times we had, they weren't that bad And everything else was part of the plan We sang: "I don't know where we go from here" This is the alpha, omega, beginning and the end And we all just idolize the dead So you were born, and that was a good day Someday you'll die, and that is a shame But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream And nothing and no one will ever take that away You had a love and that love had you And nothing mattered, you were fine And some will complain, they're just bitter, what a shame They know that loving and losing is better than nothing at all Maybe the times we had, they weren't that bad And everything else was part of our path We sang: "I don't know where we go from here" This is the anthem, the slogan, the summary of events And we all just idealize the past Maybe the times we had, they weren't that bad And everything else was part of the plan We sang: "I don't know where we go from here" This is the alpha, omega, beginning and the end And we all just idolize the dead So you were born, and that was a good day Someday you'll die, and that is a shame But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream And nothing and no one will ever take that away And someday soon my friends, this ride will come to an end But we can't just get in line again

Dancing singing ripping up stars Blue sky above and periwinkle cars Laughing, cursing, kissing in the dark You alone live in my heart Forever both ways in cosmos too And this as well we’ll make it through And parks and lights and recreation Points for Points and desecration And in the world is a part of us two And It’s I who loves you Fire all the canons of my soul You and me we’ll make heads roll Let’s eat out! We’ll eat French Fries! And swallow the sun til the daytime dies! Forever both ways in cosmos too And this as well we’ll make it through And parks and lights and recreation Points for Points and desecration And in the world is a part of us two And It’s I who loves you You and Me and You and Me and Me and You and Me and You And You and Me and You and Me We're We.

Hi, My name is Paul. I write music on a guitar, and scream alone in a bedroom about love, life, Casablanca, squids, occasionally punkrockanarchy, and a number of other things. Sometimes I use other instruments too, to varying degrees of quality. This is some music. ... more
