Yellowhammer

The rain says
God will give you what you need
Torn apart apartment
The dew point feels so weak
And the treble on
The volume in your veins
Cracks the walls you climb on
Coats your mouth in clay
It’s the same bet
Dive in with a hundred weights
Sewage in a warm lake
The day slowly fades away
The rain says
God will give you what you can’t take
Yellowhammer drowning
Dam up this goddamn place
And the filthy friends
The scars that you can’t trace
Someone branded your body
Just to help you stay awak
Who cares at all?
Fall on the wooden stake
Demon in the kitchen
Lost my sense of taste
It’s the same bet
Welfare to ward of state
Narcan on the carpet
The day slowly fades away
