lyrics

thunder and lightning and hands in the dark
wanting to kiss by the train tracks that spark
summer days move and the year mark will follow
skateboardin grooves with a heart that is hallow
dark boys in cars and light boys in the park
punk boys with cats or with dogs who don’t bark
get drunk and smile real broad in the backseat
or sit shotgun if ur really in heat
*
henry is dead henry is drunk jom is bread jom’s a punk
i swallowed a spider, i’m hollowed, you fighter
i’m small and you’re larger, he liked henry darger
*
what i’d do for a drop of whiskey with you
i’ll tell you a thing or two
it’s one of those times
i can’t open my eyes
come by, i’m high
rolling pins on sore legs
drinking down til i’m dregs
i’m surrounded by regs
can i ride on your pegs
going home now to sleep
i want your company
let’s go bowling some day
let’s go swimming some day
*
my mouth is bleeding you’re simplified
i have a fever but i don’t mind
it’s a nice distraction from the fact that you made me cry
i’m telescoping in your mind for another lie
i’m innocent
i got no restraint
you’re jaded and you are late
it’s a nice distraction from the fact that i already ate
my tummy’s full but i’m telescoping for another plate

hard to pick a favorite dc schneider album...leonie and joana are both amazing songwriters and brave and experimental. they make albums together and on their own. these songs are crazy and inspiring. Frankie Cosmos

Antagonism LP
