quiet heart

I've got to let it go
wait for my quiet foe
unleash the demon prose
I've got to juxtapose
all the ratios i compose
and the crows in stereo
I've got a quiet heart for you
for you
my love
i walk the water's edge
see it flow, see it ebb
step in to cast the net
my feet fry not wet
i can stretch my bayonet
with the definition of regret
I've got a quiet heart for you
for you
my love

everyday is like living on a fishing boat
crazy
lazy
a burning in my throat
sinking like a stones throw
don't gloat oh no i won't
I'm as misguided as a blind goat
oh my what a sick sick joke
grace note
whole note
read me and i quote
these lines we all underwrote
where's the antidote
i owe
my motorboat cuz I'm soaked, oh no another episode
and I'm alone
horror-scope, a load, under a microscope
i know, I'm a ghost, cloaked, cajoled, and poked...
everyday is like living on a fishing boat
I'm taking on water, it's no joke
(don't know if I'm gonna go high or low)
everyday...
everyday is like living on a fishing boat
crazy
lazy
it burns my throat
sinking like a stone
dont choke
oh no i won't
I'm as blind as a grinning grinning shoat
oh boy what a heavy heavy yoke
grace note
whole note
end note
i won't
you don't
we can't be resown
wheres the antidote
i own
my cyber glow
I'm soaked
its an episode
I'm told
who knows
im a ghost
everyday is like living on a fishing boat
I'm taking on water
its no joke
im a ghost
everyday...

the sky looks like a skeleton tonight
fish bones and rib cages on a telephone line
you think its the wine but i know its not
the sky looks like a fish skeleton
bleached in tide
hand written by an american
you think I'm a penitent but i know I'm not
you know I'm a penitent but i know I'm not
the sky looks like a skeleton tonight
fish bones and rib cages on a telephone wire
you think its a sign
but i know its not
so what if the sky is like a skeleton tonight
fish bones, rib cages on a telephone line
you think its a rib cage
i know its the lack of (fair) wage(s)

watch the trees
watch the sky
feel the gift
ignore the lies
pop one two three and
rub me into me
rub three and do it again
stagehand tree
and my coyote pedagogy
ah the sun on my neck
ah the love in your stride
ah the energies
ah you give to me
id lift my limbs for you
put this dog down
drive it in a wagon around
bright moon witness
test my mettle test my fitness
oh yogi
so shallowly
your love is moldy sanctimonious and hyperbole
me and my coyote pedagogy

fool's gold

memories are not meant for me
ancient hands
on ancient trees
cover it with earth
cover it with dirt
i hide inside the the sentences
good neighbours
burn their fences
i don't want to be
I'm at the lake again
standing at my window
tracing lines in the snow
i don't want to be your fool
she runs the bath
collects all she has
she runs from my words
fool's gold
don't want to be...
memories are not for me
with ancient hands
on ancient trees
i cover it with earth
i cover it with dirt
we hide in the sentences
good neighbour
burn your fences
fool's gold
i don't want to be
your
fool
or gold

my head
is in my heart
my heart
beats like
my drums
knock knock knock...oh no i can't stay and i can't run.

knock knock knock... i can't stay
my heart
beats into itself
my face meets the concrete
i see all the things I've never done
i hear all the things I've never said

here i am on my way again
i don't know how it happened
i told you to stop when i say when
but you say c'mon bud now just count to ten
driving in the van with the flashing lights
rain soaked roads
with no appetite
maybe its your red lipstick
and your sweet black tights
turn that way
ask me yeah i got something to say
another bump in the road
please my sweet belly is gonna explode
you've got no idea
you've aint no buddha
hey I'm not in a coma
give me my pumas
c'mon man give me a break
c'mon why you gotta go and give me the shakes

watercolor skies
a watery white
painted clouds
as dark as night
sweet vincent only you know how to feel
sweet vincent you paint what is real
why are we all here
i wish my brain was the same grey
it was that day
wish my heart was stronger than paper
stronger than her
only vincent saw the world for what it was
only vincent felt everything he lost
why are we still here

project satellite

i know i have a satellite mind
spinning in my head
keeping time
it's all I've ever known
but it's all mine
i know i've got a satellite mind
driving into the world
wasting time
it's all I've ever known
but it's all mine
i'm going round and round
tracking places that I've found
i think i've lost control
a long long long time ago...
i know i've got a satellite mind
i've finally realized
i can't shut it off
i guess I'm just along for the ride
chorus
I've got a satellite...
i know I've got a satellite mind
sending me useless signals cuz I'm blind
it's all I've ever know and it's all mine
gotta wait till it breaks up
when it has had its say

mustoek Hamilton, Ontario
Originally from the UK mustoek fell in love with the creative process at an early age. Musically speaking, mustoek is best described as a mix of painterly sounds, ambient noise, punk sensibilities, sarcastic cynicism. All this locked into sweet melodic hooks rooted in non traditional song structures. ... more
