Everything At Once - Lyrics by Swans


Lyrics
I'll cut up my time into two seperate pieces.
In one place, I'm someone I don't know.
In the second place I don't remember my name.I'll maintain control: I'll imitate you perfectly.
Now nothing's there: you win.
My flesh hangs loose on my bones,I'm old, I'm poisoned.I feel everything at once.
Now throw me out the window.
Watch me fall.I'll try to remember if I've ever been here before.I can't remember.I'll imitate everything around me perfectly.
Time will always win.
It's poison.I've never loved you.I was never here.I remember what it felt like to take a deep breath, then exhale, then forgetwhat I had just done.I was never here.I'll imitate everything around me.
Perfectly.
