a solo revenge

fifty years
fifty years of secrets and shame
heavy chains
heavy chains of guilt and remorse
mountains of
mountains of invisibility
lies and shadows
lies and shadows eat me away
what have I done?
pretend I didn’t do it
make it all go away
no party for me
two hours of sleep
gave me the gun
in the hot seat
hope and pray
hope and pray that I’m not found
fucking up
fucking up once again
trigger finger
trigger finger slips again
believing in
believing in a false enemy

black sun is rising
slowly from the east
like melted film stock
moves across the screen
storm brought the water
now nothing will grow
rust stains the shoreline
ravens ate the crows
i sang their melodies
i set the tone
i sang their melodies
i left you alone
i drank martinis
rolled tobacco with the queen
smoked in silence
in the shade of those machines
two thousand fingers
words flying off the page
can you forgive me
as i smell the burning sage

snapshot

there was a time when fields grew bare
jigsaw – through cracks, dried out souls
pieces broke off
and emptiness drifts through air
there was a time when space wrapped around
pressure – crush body and bone
breathing once more
until space swallows me whole
it's not
there was a time when life stood still
snapshots are captured in stone
erase the past
the future is drowning in fear
it's not

something’s wrong
all these noises
i can’t stand it
dad can’t you see
mom what’s wrong with me
transforming into the enemy
small legs
stiff back
i can’t get up
i can’t get up
got to start from scratch
no reminders
no history
this is the new me

sontag Vancouver, British Columbia
sontag is a Vancouver-based punk/math rock band who hunkered down this winter to push out a heavy, driving set of new songs for their soon to be released tape. Inspired by the likes of sonic youth, unwound and riot grrrl, sontag lays down dense layers of dissonant guitars and thick walls of noise. ... more
