I tried to make them stop
I tried to make them stop that
I was bound
on the ground
I looked up
they kept on fucking around
what am I to do
what am I to do next
am I a girl
a boy
something more
am I nothing at all
bathtubs getting filled with blood from forearms
bathtubs getting filled with waterfalls

I've just seen some dirty girls
dressed just like some pretty boys
I kinda feel like they mean trouble
I've just seen some dirty girls
dirty boy
I've never felt so many fingers
prying around my shiny skin
I've never wished for anything
but I never knew about this
dirty boy

a true thing of beauty
am I not clever tell me
bullshitting people to abide
my day-to-day stasis functions high
they come to me, uninvited
unable to trust people
heaps of stones to sleep with blocks
of overcharged concrete
a trustworthy little box of heat
you're the prescient one
your pavement is warm
the birth of unforgiven emotions
is going to happen when you least want
the things that I most treasured
have become the very fabric
of the most overwhelming surge
that seems to turn you ecstatic
itching you can't quiet down
course of cauterized bounds
bits of wire, hardened skin
makeshift blades, stone dry sheets
mouth on mouth, sea of teeth
serene hearts, rested fists
everything I touch dies with me
you're the prescient one
your pavement is warm

foxhole choirs could not find anything
do not mock me
no one is supposed to know anything
no one is supposed to act like you do
nobody sane would fuck me but you do
nobody sane would like it but I do

fuck me once
and fuck me twice
and get the fuck out
step away from the bike
I see you reaching for your pocket
don't even think about it
let me sleep on those poppies
and I'll bring you daffodils by tomorrow
I can see you seep through the wood
sneaky bastard that you are
fuck me once
and fuck me twice

born not from virtue
it calls me as if by name
yet it still eludes me
the imminent disaster made flesh
the imminent disaster incarnate
snap like a matchstick
weaker than flesh
far above earthly flesh
I am everything a man should be
nothing

Messine / Je suis moisissure
by MARIA VIOLENZA + NOIR BOY GEORGE (maxi split)
supported by 4 fans who also own “Alas”
One of my favorite things to listen to on bandcamp that I come back to time and time again. Truly the perfect split for these artists. Gritty and fun:)

Out In The Field
by Oppenheimer MkII
supported by 4 fans who also own “Alas”
Full of dark, pulsating—yet hopeful—energy. Just what I needed in this moment, this reality.

The French group Catalogue excel at the classic sound of ’70s post-punk, with razor-sharp guitars and stern, dead-eyed vocals.
