Atlas
she hands me my coffee
she says
its hot she says
she said
I don't know how you drink that stuff
I don't know how you laugh so much
I said you would too girl
if you saw the world like I do
in black and white
and hot and cold
like the stars tonight
aw you would too
if you carried the world like I do
you would too
if you carried the world like I do
on my shoulders
on my shoulders
on my shoulders
on my shoulders
we are getting old before our eyes
we were told the stories of us that were lies
I write
I paint
I'm told its just for me
but it aint
I write
and I paint
I'm told its just for me
but I'm telling you
it aint
after all what are we but what we do
after all what are we but what we say
after all what are we but what we feel
after all what are we but what we aint
after all

Just Say Happy Birthday
my heart
beats
with the steps you take
my world crumbles down
my anger slithers around
id rather
be alone
id rather be alone
then replace your face
or the past so fast
wednesday wake me up
at last
just say something
like
happy birthday
just say something
like
happy birthday
my heart aches
breathe in its late
stitch it up
and push it down
everything is all right
we are lost and found
stitch it up and push it down
everything is all right
we are lost and found
erase my face
or the past so fast
Tuesday wake me up
at last
just say something
like
happy birthday
happy birthday
just say something
like
happy birthday...

The Feels
I woke up
took my meds
brushed my teeth
cut my lawn
cut lay left hand
we regret the things we did
we regret the things we don't see
so you don't want to be dead inside
one day you want to feel alive
so you don't want to be dead inside
one day you want to feel alive
so you don't want to be dead inside
one day yeah you want to feel alive
wouldn't it be right
if I could feel again
oh wouldn't it be nice
if I could feel again
some body
some body
some body
cut me open
some body
some body
some body
cut me open
wouldn't it be. right
oh wouldn't it be right
wouldn't it be right
if I could feel again
wouldn't it be nice
wouldn't be nice
wouldn't it be nice
if I could feel again
wouldn't it be. right
oh wouldn't it be right
wouldn't it be right
if I could feel again
wouldn't it be nice
wouldn't be nice
wouldn't it be nice
if I could feel again
wouldn't it be. right
oh wouldn't it be right
wouldn't it be right
if I could feel again
wouldn't it be nice
wouldn't be nice
wouldn't it be nice
if I could feel again

empty and meaningful
03:46
|

|
everyone is inside their heads
dissecting words they wished they said
heads as wide as the galaxy
as meaningless as you and me
too many things to say
too many things to do
you know
you wish you wish
you know
you wished it too
too much time to say anything meaningful
too much time to do something meaningful
in the meantime you
yeah you unpack your curse
its dinner time and you know
look much worse
push it down
push it down
push it down
put it away
put it away
put it away
I know what to say
transformational
or just irrational
I say it anyway
too much time to say meaningful
too much time to do something
meaningful
hitch a ride on a glitch
why don't you
why don't you
why don't you
why don't you now
why don't you
everyone knows but me...

i dont like the way

I don't like the way you make me feel
when I lie to you
I don't know how you unpack the things that you do
and you're so cold
when you're so cold
so cold...
its smoking here
and I'm hoping here
that your magnetic pull
is just a joke
and this burn will take its toll
I know
I don't roll that away
but I want to watch you fade away
because youre so cold
so cold
don't fuck up
or you will get none
don't fuck up
or you will get none
don't fuck up
or I will sit back and watch you. burn
don't fuck up
don't fuck up
or I will sit back
and watch you burn
empty people make no sounds

she tells her friends
that george drives a ford
and when she sees him
she smiles
she's never bored
he laughs and tells her
that he's gonna get her one of these days
I wanna hold your head
I wanna hold your head
I wanna hold your head in my hands
he said
I wanna hold your head in my hands
he said
and look you in the eyes...
he wants to keep her in his chest
he wants to keep her away from the rest
Nothing he can't do
he looks at her its true
she has him through and through
its true
she says I wanna hold your head
I wanna hold your head in my hands
and look you in the eyes as well
I wanna hold your head
I wanna hold your head in my hands
she whispers in his ears
make me yours tonight
make me yours for life
make me yours for life
make me yours for life
make me yours for life
make me yours for life
make me yours for life

I see only blue
through me
through you
through the window
I do too
through it I paint the sky too
I paint the inside of my eyes with you
I paint the inside of my brain like that too
because I'm blue
im blue

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
