Slow Parade [Promo]

lyrics

Your mother called the other day
She said she found a stone to mark your grave
You finished out your slow parade
No need for notes, no debts to pay
Your sister called the other day
She sounded like you in a way
Your sister will take the slow parade
From fleshy cheeks to ashen age

My lover spent the night the other day
I saw your will to leave us in her face
But what has gone always remains
Between the sheets, in memories

I saw your grave the other day
Sometimes I want to go the exact same way
But was has gone always remains
Under your feet or on a page

I don’t want to fight
I don't want to close my eyes tonight

Mutually Assured Destruction
by Brother Gruesome

Drinking a beer before you get out of bed. Never showering. Waking up with strange marks and hating the State. Is there hope? Probably not. But there's definitely more beer and endless libido. THIS MOUTH IS AN ASHTRAY

Trigger Happy Shedneckz
by Jessie Williams

More anarcho-pessimistic bummerfolk from a well-traveled and hella-genuine friend. Situates loss and addiction within a larger picture of systemic bummer and oppression. THIS MOUTH IS AN ASHTRAY
