This constant turning of light is starting to get to my craw power over night and day, day and night and night and day, on and off. This daytime's only as long as I feel it should be constant it should be constant turning day to night turning night to day Don't know what to believe, the clouds or the sun daytime light switched interrupted now it's day but not for long now it's day but not for long Do I age a day when the light goes off? Does my day begin when the light goes on?

I Want To Be 04:03
I want to be, a tune haunts me undersea, and lost bread is all Howard stop, grind those bearings in the shop buy government cheese a roadmap to the soil Lick popcorn cheese off my fingers in the breeze now the dinner bell and return to my cell I want to be but I'm in the way I want to be so I'm here to stay.

Every once in a while I feel as though I'm moving through a determinist soup where every movement of mine sends eddies of current knocking this into that. The force it takes to make one movement in the soup is great, and the implications of my actions, thoroughly following Newtonian physics are also more for reacting. It's as if I would like to constrain movement until the thick soup thins to a light gruel, where I may move effortlessly, affecting things in a manner which I wish.

Distant relatives come into town, unexpected they burn the whole day. They start at the cupboards and move the stairs the bedroom window blankly stares moulded flowers on the bureau, left by some unsuspecting hero Who dropped them off and rode away we never saw him again, and again. molded plastic with musty joints rusting four wilting supporting wires colored yellow, red and cyan dipped in turtle wax and sprayed with perfume with perfume... They will last forever. How are you today? I'm doing fine today (repeat)

Tracks 02:42
The tracks they all lead out of here in the sleepy coldness of the night breath frost patterns do appear everything is black and white so black and white, so black and white. so black and so black and white. That magic carpet did appear I want to take it out of here grounded by some ancient rule shrouded in a caste of fear but I can't see straight, no I can't see straight but I can't see straight, no I can't see straight The tracks they all lead out of here the sun bleaches things all white heat melts up the tarred up road everything is black and white so black and white, so black and white. so black and so black and white. At day it was so hot out here the sleepy but cold secure night leaves my mind in wandering fear that everything is black and white so black and white, so black and white. so black and so black and white.
