Take your old demeanour and go Because without information we are nothing Without information we are nothing Without information we are nothing but machinations So take your old demeanour So take your old demeanour and go Well I don’t know what to do to be how I used to be me And I miss my old self I need my old friends I want my old life Oh how the dead sleep Infinite but indefinite You feel the calmness land, right down to your feet on the floor Where altruists and alchemists align To stratigraph your aphorisms I’m initiating expiations Because without inspiration we are nothing but machinations And I miss my old self I need my old friends I want my old life Because without information we are nothing Without information we are nothing Without information we are nothing but machinations

Interlocator 03:40
We are alive to open up But you’re so closed hearted with your secrets Perceiving absent patterns Well I hurt With the red and the sweat and the thoughts and regrets Instressing our inscapes Interlocate seceding to an obstreperous light We all lace up our tongues With excoriation lust Intertwined with your invective Excoriation lust Intertwined and fused in vectors Well I hurt Like everybody else hurts
3.
The sky records explosions Like superimpositions Lighting up and flaring out in the dark Something hurts your eyes Suffocate in sulphuric air We let oceans wave While isolating lakes In semi-wakeful states Slip and oscillate We’re weightless and finite Reinvent and synthesise Slip and oscillate Animate in air and space Be more awake, aware Catch and imaginate Demarcate Serrating us, hollering: “Slip and oscillate” We let oceans wait While isolating lakes In semi-wakeful states When you wonder what to call your own It’s any wonder this city is not your home
4.
Low tide, low light Descending into darkness in the silence of spies Enveloped in landscapes under lochs and lakes Where we escape from phonoaesthetics But we’ll be listening and remembering until we’re old and unsteady Abandon our posts Find a road we recognise and race home Where twisting shorelines and fractured coastlines frown Immerse yourself in retrospective Accept your errors
