Ectoplasm.
AJ Farruco Jul 2022
Blood is thicker than water/
Under a burning bridge/
With the petrol and sawdust/
You can't unchop trees/
You can't just laugh it off/
You can't not be yourself/
Alt version/
Out of focus on purpose/
I am just a blur at long distance/
Nowhere man, with short fingers/
A sore back, and forehead marked/
Blood is thicker than water/
In my eyes, and it stings/
I feel annoyed more than upset/
I can't stop bleeding out/
Grief is my default setting/
Don't get over it, just get on with it/
Acting like I'm not dysfunctional/
What a joke; it ain't nothing new/
Another cycle in the mindfog/
And everyday I wake up is groundhog/
Kind of... with slight variations/
A vampire finds God/
Celibate 'til lust takes over again/
Blood is thicker than water/
My heart is broken/
Can't remember when it wasn't/
Pops is not a ghost, I am/
Present like a hologram/
The laziest poltergeist/
Only haunt myself./
