End Game Hell on earth is a place I know Hell on earth is a place I know re(PPP)rise It slows down for a moment when you notice it hurts - It’s slow sound comes and goes like a wave - It’s slow, so slow

I Saw You I Saw God, I saw everybody else fall apart I made sure I was there, I knew something always has to go awry For me, I was scared - but now i knowa oh now I know ( I saw god in a fable Waking up to the tune ) ( Coming down from a day job, mm hmm Working til 2 ) ( Rent Money comin through til the debt breaks a million. utang na loob [debt of one’s inner self] ) ( Spirit Honey Sweet Light - liberator, ther’s a glimpse at the truth ) And I guess that’s how it goes Shapes figure what you do and I guess the fable shows Figures shape to you. Sittin right back down I ain’t mad at all used to let the smoke roll down on the patio (matador) bulls stay calm where an angel tread only when the fools go rushin in Used to see god on and off again but now I guess I know There’s no difference in opinion now I know it’s you now we’re right back here where we started off again

Ah ah, here we are again.

I let my wrists go limp when I lay down slow And let the feeling go out against my soul I'm looking up when I laugh to oblivion and let the heavens surround the sound of all I know In a moment I saw god alone again, and I saw you were standing there when we find out how far the bottom falls we’ll just look down and we’ll laugh out loud It's just so white out 'til I black out It's just the wide mouth of a baby crying for the sunrise to come out There's a night owl patiently waving Goodbye - goodbye goodbye goodbye, Goodbye goodbye goodbye, Goodbye goodbye goodbye, Goodbye goodbye good boy.

Good Grief 05:15
The earth turns slowly to hell and burns brightly for days The ghosts return lively and carry the weight of the world And no one else like you knows the heat of the summer or the careful delight of the spring, And Nobody Else Cares when they fly away but I’ll know you’re gone, gone away.

So I started falling startled from a day ( dream ) The whole house is calling how far is home ? So I started calling This whole house in Spring There I started sobbing, “what a ways to go” When I got to walking People went along slowly out of here slow slowly out of here Look how far I’ve gotten, this whole house is in Spring Still I keep to crying, “How lovely, how beautiful it is, How beautiful it is,”

When did your heartbreak? Oh, your speaking out in tongues now? You say something don’t sit right? The shadows on your wall still keep you up at night? There’s a reason why you feel this way - Dreams and memories will always feel so faint. It’s alright if you can’t get out by yourself - It’s not something you can help. This spiral is only hell so move on
10.
Somebody please come save this dog It's getting dark The righteous thing he'll do is watch the night for you. Somebody please come save me too ( call me back ) I know my Dad told me to do it myself, said don't flex your ego(s) there's no pride for the needful. No one will help you like you can.

about

////
5 day old (mobility, self-awareness, language) finally makes whole of disjointed and abstracted sweet nothings. Black lines and miscellaneous shapes now take the form of figures. Developed subjectivity in linguistics (some symbolic order) - better communication - Less fantastic escapism, more confident confrontations with actual reality.
A method of processing, contextualizing, cognizing - familiar elements, old work, old pieces - same shit different life - This is the last of the series.

////
A bit of apotheosis for a series that began in 2015 -
stemming from a decade long practice of musicology into all disciplines;
the synthesis of music in art, education, business, history, culture technology and philosophy.

////
Much love and care to all of influence - for listening and looking always
