TELL MY MOTHER \
DON'T FORGET TO SHUT THE DOOR
Tell my mother that I am going away
Far from the animal
That has been brought up in my veins
Sharing the edges of your facial features
One at a time, galloping past
The feathered lines
Burning me.
Tell my mother that I am going away.
The pink television’s blur
On it shows a man in sulphur
Fortune telling a feebled mother
That her hair’s golden crisp of anger
But then a stranger comes gushing in
Slide his feet on silky chin
Made of wool and holy sin
So let’s watch some tele
Oh dear Eileen.
Hear the cries of antlers
Fishing fathers out sea of danger
Opening of canyon’s laughter
Spitting slime from getting pleasure
But don’t forget to shut the door
Moaning flowers of paramour
Singing sinners, joyous galore
Trust in him in thrusting her.
KAMIKAZE KID
The kamikaze kid wakes up
And fills his lungs with air
There is sweat
Running down his face
His face smashed on the chair!
The mystifying afterlife
Teaches us humility and grace
But it’s easy to
Fall into
Instant gratification too.
So don’t you dare
He will see you anywhere
And don’t you forget
The vultures are in the air
Waiting for you
Your hands were made for a purpose
Yet you drown them in sin sucrose
When midnight comes
Follow your eyes
Temptation is evil in disguise
So don’t you dare
He will see you anywhere
And don’t you forget
The vultures are in the air
And don’t you dare
He will see you anywhere
And don’t you forget
The vultures are in the air
Praying for you
ETERNALLY BARE FEET
Hey darling tell me
Where you’re going now?
By the way
Did you hear?
Your shoelaces are untied
Hey darling what’s the dream?
Green grass and
White pickets
By the way
Tell me how?
Your gravity is divine
Now I walk
Eternally Bare Feet
Looking for someone
To take away
On infinite sands
And a maze
To get lost into
Now I walk
Eternally Bare Feet
Looking for someone
To take away
On infinite sands
And a maze
To get lost in love
Hey darling can you see?
The sky is blue
perpetually
By the way
Did you hear?
You speak in other languages
And I’ve been running on the sidewalk
Turning head towards the Sun
Hoping for the glare to subside
And there the angel appears
Now I walk
Eternally Bare Feet
Looking for someone
To take away
On infinite sands
And a maze
To get lost into
Now I walk
Eternally Bare Feet
Looking for someone
To take away
On infinite sands
And a maze
To get lost into
Now I walk
Eternally Bare Feet
TANAH INI MILIKMU

KAU HINA
Berkawan dengan penipu tua
Engkau tidak pernah tahu
Berkawan dengan pencuri wang
Engkau tidak pernah tahu
Perbezaan jahat dengan
Yang baik untuk dirimu
Perbezaan jahat dengan
Yang baik untuk dirimu
Kau Hina
Berkawan dengan pencaci Tuhan
Engkau tidak pernah malu
Berkawan dengan si jalang Bulan
Engkau tidak pernah malu
Dengan perbuatanmu
Mencuri, mencaci, merogol
Dengan perbuatanmu
Menipu, memukul, bertolol
Kau Hina
Berkawan dengan si hantu hujan
Engkau tidak pernah mahu
Berkawan dengan si babi hutan
Engkau tidak pernah mahu
Berdoa pada Tuhan
Engkau hanya mahu yang senang
Berdoa pada Tuhan
Engkau hanya mahu yang senang
Kau Hina
IPOH / INFINITY
Shelter me
From the voices in my head
Shelter me
From my own destruction
To infinity
I’ll wash my hands from the blood that reeks
To infinity
I’ll run in circles smiling free
Watch your head now
Watch where you go and
Where you leap
Shelter me
From my arms that are not here
Shelter me
From my graceful fall in abyss
To infinity
I’ll wash my hands from the blood that reeks
To infinity
I’ll run in circles smiling free
Watch your head now
Watch where you go and
Where you leap
FACELESS NAME
I’ll wake for you now
In the forest
Who is with you now
Is he faceless?
And falling
Where was he now?
And falling
What’s his name now?
And time and time (again)
You were the ocean
And time and time (again)
I was the tide that you brought
Whistling your name
And time and time (again)
He was the potion
And time and time (again)
I am the ocean
Dawn only comes when
Darkness dies
Fools told me
“Son. Don’t be afraid”
And falling
Where was he now?
And falling
Forget his name now
And time and time (again)
You were the ocean
And time and time (again)
I was the tide that you brought
Whistling your name
And time and time (again)
He was the potion
And time and time (again)
I am the ocean
SILAP SIAPA
Suasana pagi
Memanggil kesilapan
Oh cahaya Bumi
Mengapa engkau sedih?
Benarkah harapan
Disaluti kekuasaan
Oleh sesiapa
Yang menang pertaruhan
Cukup sudahlah
Tangan penat mengguli
Oh pakcik bertahanlah
Makin hari, makin pulih
Benarkah harapan
Disaluti kekuasaan
Oleh sesiapa
Yang menang pertaruhan
Silap siapa?
Usaha kita sia-sia
Silap siapa?
Titik peluh tak terkira
Silap siapa?
Usaha kita sia-sia
Silap siapa?
Dah jatuh dipijak juga
Silap siapa?
Usaha kita sia-sia
Silap siapa?
Dah jatuh dipijak juga
CORVIDAE
Take your time to waste
Take a deep breath in
Closed eyes they know you well
Do you know your name?
A father figure to the world
He became a silent
The patterns on the ground they show
God’s name
Oh
A drifter he came to me
He brought the settling sea
“Don’t you worry”; he said
“It’ll all be alright”
Fingers caressing my face
Who the hell was he?
Where we fall is where
We will rise again
Oh
We drift like a stone
On the rugged lawn
And Corvidae, take me home
She is there
And so is home
We drift like a stone
On the rugged lawn
And Corvidae, take me home
She is there
And so is home
We drift like a stone
On the rugged lawn
And Corvidae, take me home
She is there
And so is home
We drift like a stone
On the rugged lawn
And Corvidae, take me home
She is there
So I must go now
THE FOOL INSIDE THE LIGHT
Look at all the birds go
Yeah it all seems normal
What with all their circles
Murmurations turmoil
Then you came and spoil it all
And your teeth are jarring tall
Telling us about the fall
Showing us the open seas
And all the aging trees
Before the laughing bees
Meandering out
You go and buck your feet
Towing in the line for free
Jumping at her awful beat
Balls and all
The fool is dancing desperately
I watched you fall in ecstasy
The morning comes
And then you leave again
Have you heard that
The fool is dancing desperately
I watched you fall in ecstasy
The morning comes
And then you leave again
The fool inside the light
Joking by the window
Can seem fun and all
Even with your gracious fall
Breaking all the necks and storms
Like the Hitlers of the wars
Caring not for the striped boys
Under cold clouds
Showing us the open seas
And all the aging trees
Before the laughing bees
Meandering out
You go and buck your feet
Towing in the line for free
Jumping at her awful beat
Balls and all
Have you heard that
The fool is dancing desperately
I watched you fall in ecstasy
The morning comes
And then you leave again
The fool inside the light
