Already Dead

Dead
Forgot how long it’s been
A dusty trunk where you can find your junk ruined
I’m already dead
Alarm clock in my head, that’s just who I am
A broken dial you watch when you’re sleeping in
Torn up beyond repair, I’m laid out threadbare
I’m wash-stained clothes that’s filled with holes
That can’t be sewn, my thoughts are rocks upstairs
Bones are just mortar for my organs
'Cause I’m already
«Instrumental break.​»
«With your eyes open, or your eyes closed
Take a moment to connect with where you are.​
Feel your feet on the ground without looking at anything at all.​
Just listen.​ Rest with a sense of hearing.​
Experience the show of sound that is happening around you right now
Life in stereo.​
Allow the instruments into your globe of sound.​
And when the next part comes along, let it be there.​
Without engaging, just listening to the sounds
And wish them well as they pass on through.»
Dead
My blood’s all filled with lead
A crooked leaky cup to keep your pencils in
I’m already dead
A landfill here I said, really got no place
I’m just some waste compressed
I’m already dead
