David can you hear me?
I’m slowly slurring your name
Nodding on the white whale
Oblivion easing my pain
Too many Earthly years
Drowning in the heat of the sun
Leaning into my fear
As my sinking's begun
Drifting further at sea and drowning in me
Milwaukee is clouding my path and I’m looking like trash
Boris can you see me?
You’re blurring into my sight
An alcoholic tumbling
And slowly losing the fight
Too many blacked out days
Then quickly reloading the gun
I’m rapidly losing my way
And blinded by the noise of the Sunn O)))
Drifting further at sea and drowning in me
Soviets clouding my path and sympathies past
Pushing a rocks glass up a Holy Mountain pass
Sobriety’s last laugh in a humorless, far gone past
Sabbotaging a battle of a lifelong Sabbatical
Punish the radical by ostracizing the truth
Geezer can you help me?
Your rumbling's shown me the way
A black nativity
Shrugging at halcyon days
Ambition willingly destroyed
A child that’s drifting at sea
Leaning into the void
and living for tomorrow’s dream
Drifting further at sea and drowning in me
Kentucky is clouding my path and I'm happy at last
