now i am out of the picture that was once worth a thousand words
where there once wept a thousand people, there now fly a thousand birds(hurrah, hurrah, hurrah! hurrah, hurrah, hurrah!)
Seeming — Celebration Song (The Birdwatcher’s Guide to Atrocity, 2020)
write a poem
forget a language
leave no trace
be like lightning
Seeming (ft. Bill Drummond) — Learn to Vanish (The Birdwatcher’s Guide to Atrocity, 2020)
and it’s breaking, it retreats and disbands
nothing more than clay to us
reality’s afraid of us
watch it go, giving up the ghost of a chance
darling, we are dangerous
reality’s afraid of us
Seeming — Reality is Afraid (The Birthwatcher’s Guide to Atrocity, 2020)
i am your shade in the morning, you are my shadow at dusk
and the music our footprints write is permanent, more permanent than sound
Seeming — Permanent (The Birdwatcher’s Guide to Atrocity, 2020)
the future will be borderless and red and queer and bold
for i was born to make my kind extinct
Seeming — End Studies (The Birdwatcher’s Guide to Atrocity, 2020)
i didn’t do it today cos i don’t want you to have to deal with the cops
and i didn’t do it today cos i don’t want you to think that love just stops
Seeming — Remember to Breathe (The Birdwatcher’s Guide to Atrocity, 2020)
i will madly, madly drown
madly, madly drown
take you MOTHERFUCKERS down
Seeming — The Flood Comes For You (The Birdwatcher’s Guide to Atrocity, 2020)
don’t go believing that here and now is how it’s gonna stay
(i been thinkin’ of another way, i been gettin’ rid of yesterday)
don’t go believing a hand that holds itself is a fist
(you’ve always been an optimist, remember you’ve always been an optimist)

write the song you need to hear, even if it amputates the sky
Seeming — Go Small (The Birdwatcher’s Guide to Atrocity, 2020)
fates are coming, with a law beyond the law
and a wounded reptile called americait’s more, not less, it’s limitless and more…
(the fates are coming)
