Jordaan Mason - Organs For Oceans Lyrics
He slept in my bed
After I filled his body
With insects and panic
And grandfather sewn seeds
I was useless inside him
Trade organs for oceans
Is there a vaccine for this?
To clean out all the unborn kids
(a whole graveyard h...
Jordaan Mason - Ethic Of Encounter Lyrics
A conscious hallucination
The open eye, so human
It is what it is not
It is what it is not
Contagious availability
Some things are there but you can't see
It is what it is not
It is what it is not
You have got to ...
Jordaan Mason - Stranger Lyrics
Last night I slept with a strange man
He was older than me, he had thick busy hands
We crawled inside his bed, and we took off our clothes
We said nothing to each other
We said nothing to each other
We said nothing to each other

Jordaan Mason - Pink Lyrics
We dematerialize
Drag our way through
Stress about all the words
We cannot undo
Hide under the pink
In an otherwise grey room
Til finally the time comes
The flowers are in bloom
I say sister
Do what you have to do
Take y...
Jordaan Mason - Aphasia Lyrics

Collecting garbage in my mouth

We haven't met before but we have met before
You were in a dream i had
I ran to the window and looked up at the sky
I kept thinking, "ta...
Jordaan Mason - Best Mess Lyrics
Should i undress
If i feel powerless

Shit year, best mess
Ugly, cut-up, killing time
A risk, we race toward the light

Jordaan Mason - Come & Go Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I carried you down past the churches
I did it for your own sake
You stood by the pier and you looked out
At all the lights dancing on the lake
And I carried you down to the creek bed
Where you stared up at the sun
Yo...
Jordaan Mason - It Does Not Get Better Lyrics
It does not get better, it just gets heavier
It does not get better, it just gets heavier

The days grew darker, shorter
Our own worlds weren't enough to help us stay above the wei...
Jordaan Mason - Avalanches Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If snow is flesh in gardens: we don't have mouths to talk about it
Between avalanches, we can find our language
Between fire blankets, we can speak our language
[Pre-Chorus]
But if snow is like skin: it pulls awa...
Jordaan Mason - I Was Coerced Lyrics

And we've been making a prayer, together
And we've been graphing a map, together
And we'...
Jordaan Mason - It Does Not Get Better (Reprise) Lyrics
The days grew brighter, longer
We left the house again
We lost our keys, scraped our knees, and forgot our plans
I had a dream you laughed at me when I asked for help
But you were there when I awoke and your warmth i felt
Still ev...
Jordaan Mason - They Harmonize Lyrics
Scientist you've been hard at work I know
You've been digging the earth for weeks in your front yard
Have you found the box of bibles I buried there
So long ago I can't remember the litanies and
Are you hoping to have...
Jordaan Mason - Bird's Nest Lyrics
My mouth is filled with his ovaries
I hold them: here, between my teeth
O! Get these bird's nests out of me

Jordaan Mason - Unable Lyrics
I was unable to call you
When i wanted to call you
And tell you happy birthday
It was a weird day
I was walking
With a song you like
Stuck in my head but
Only a single part of the song
You know the part where she says

Jon McLaughlin - Anybody Else Lyrics
Hello, hello

Jordaan Mason - His Hands Lyrics
You covered your face in black coal
Stripped off all of your clothes
Did you think I wouldn't recognize you that way?
You wanted to put your hands on me

Get your fu...
Jordaan Mason - Pharmacy Lyrics
All you are is pharmacy

I want you
Yeah, I want you

It feels like there's oceans
Between me and you once again

Jordaan Mason - Never Homesick Lyrics
We stayed home, played priapus
I felt at peace with my wrong sex
Hours passed, we lost the time
We osculate and we entwine

You'll be too ashamed to wear in public
So that when you put them on

Jordaan Mason - Plural Lyrics
I am not here like i used to be
I'm half-erased perhaps a ghost just pissing aimlessly
I am impatient i want to be a snake
I want to feel the grass against my skin or on my face

But i say this ...
Jordaan Mason - I've Been Tasting Roads My Whole Life Lyrics
I have made too much room in me

Jordaan Mason - Of Hospitals Lyrics
look: i ate all the books in your bedroom
and they took my blood and tested it in small doses

Jordaan Mason - Her Dog Lyrics
So we've got this bruise, these bruises

I argue in my head now, I barely sing
I used to be more...
Jordaan Mason - Eulogy Lyrics

Jordaan Mason - Made And Remade Continually Lyrics
I wanted to reach out
Ask for help
Ask for help
Ask for help

Sure, you might respond
But when I'm like this what can you say to make me calm?
My body needs a reason to rally itself
But instead of inspire...
Jordaan Mason - Why Fit? Lyrics
I get a late night call
She cries into the speaker, she says
'if I can't make myself a home here, I guess I don't belong anywhere!
Am I still a stranger getting on and off trains?
Will anyone ever know my name?

Justice on this world
Our atmosphere impounded by
Our ample trees to burn
Statistically crimes escalating
As third world warfare thrives
And men with soft explosives taking
Pride in taking lifes...
Jordaan Mason - (s)mother Lyrics
The doctors told him he'd be gone by now
His lungs full of blankets: burnt, black, and bound
He buried his family in the backyard
Flooded the basement, filled it up with tar
We borrowed their old clothes, and then we undressed

Jordaan Mason - No Wires Lyrics
Unplug me from this, I want no wires
Let's speak face to face so the words cannot be traced

We are, we are electric
We are, we are e...
Exodus - Body Harvest Lyrics
Awakened in ice near dead in a tub
Organs are cut out and gone, you pay the price
Phone and note call 911!!
Startled and scared
What to do next?
Who must be called?
Or will it be death!
Removed, they take your spleen
Your heart is sold lef...
Jordaan Mason - Wrong In My Chest Lyrics
So, how did it start?
What set me off?
Or is this just how it's always been
But sometimes I'm better at keeping it in?
And then my heart begins to beat again
Where it feels like something's wrong in my chest

Jordaan Mason - Another War Lyrics
We returned home
You with a raincoat, me a permanent cough
Put less and less clothes on, could not decide whether or not we wanted to walk to the ends of the earth
Or if perhaps we'd rather rest in our own backyard dirt
Our ...
Jordaan Mason - Map On The Body Lyrics
I am afraid to talk. i make

To make a bed better

Clean yet and i want to go swimming
But both of my arms
Are broken. i draw a map ...
Jordaan Mason - Awl / Leather Lyrics
Home is where the heart attack was
He's fine now, but it came as a shock
For a second there I thought he was gone
And even just that second felt far too long
Home is where you came with good news
We fell asleep, cats at ou...
Jordaan Mason - Liturgy Part Two Lyrics
suddenly, suddenly: like a brick to the head
caught in bramble, cut my knees
compass clasped at three degrees
she whispered softly just to me
the difference between wasps and bees
and we sucked the venom out of one another

Owel - Lighthouse Lyrics
Jordaan Mason - If I Disappear... Lyrics
If I disappear, I'm lost
If I disappear, I'm lost
I looked up at the stars, i felt the limits of my arms
Crammed with an archive of almanacs
While you, my protector, put your arms on my back
I was wearing the thinnest...
