Tighten the Tourniquet Lyrics


Blood unloads from my vein

Spurts of purple; deepened red

Scarlet dyed cloth can't seal the stream

It won't help around the neck

Apply the strap

Compress the opening

Twist the stick

Excessive spewing

Profuse bleeding

Loss of all feeling (relief)

Liquidation vestibules

Strangulating bronchial (tubes)

Eyes swimming, in lacrimal

I fountain away, at each breath

Rivulets bubble in my mouth

A spouting arc of beady flecks

Face screwed up in agony

Pigments sifted from the structure

Sheer fatigue; grasp at death

Exiscated, dimunated, discolored

The crimson tide splashes

It sways, twirls and loops

Out of the artery and into the air

It gyres though like a bolt

Lying defleshed swastika

Face down, act of pronation

A accrual, coat of grime

An abolion, eradiction, extration, distallation

In a dream it is my will

My suicidal search

Immense tear, where the throat should be

The crevice continues to spurt

My wish is die; or is it to live?

The epiglottis drowns in blood

I wake up knowing the answer to all

It's from her neck! I'll watch the flood
