keepers (Scott Walker Reverence)

lyrics

[boy, it’s been a fuck of a year, lemme tell ya ahahaha]

for the first time, I watched the needle go in
the pill taken, the Earth beneath lay quiet for a moment
with a breath unshattered fluid stain
quiet for a moment
should the unwell self love itself?
it can’t be helped, it’s all I told myself I had
who else could cause discomfort fit for movement
neurotics fling out the window or digest themselves
a Sisyphus eternally reborn
not a danger to ourselves, but an inconvenience
an inconvenience to others
cloying Narcissus of terror and disgust
cloying Narcissus of terror and disgust
no exorcism can get you out, get you out
but we do too much to keep each other bound
keep each other bound and the rest out

wail softer
