lyrics

Seems as if assemblies start and end. But with a leader like that, gun in hand, no one can stir. How can one constitute such fiction? It’s fiction, his fiction. I’m losing faith in this place. Opposition raises its hands.
What on earth is your god damn deal? Agreeable, how is she agreeable (being one not to complain)? Without a voice without a voice she is now weary and hoarse.
I’m so tired of all the inkblots, they’re the same, of all acquaintances ashamed__
is I for feeling more than indifference.
I am but a fool, it’s all or nothing and I am nothing. Take a look at me now I scream it’s done.
Well, it’s done.
Leave it alone, say it goodbye, leave it alone, watch it die.
Your revolution is killing me.
Monday starts and then monday starts.

with the infusion of friends’ idears, influence, and overall assistance, it wouldn’t be fair to keep putting it all under the porch of “matt aspinwall”. so “black lake” it is.
