You know that he's got me
My brain is all messed up
And all of my dreams are
Falling out at my feet
I said I wished
You could save me
But I'm so incapacitated
He went and told me
You're all a lie
Can you even hear me?
Set me free...
I chase my tail
Go after the easy meat
He tells me there's
Nothing more to you
Than there is to me
Set me free...
Father won't you
Come and save me?
They all hold me close
Talk to me, tell me
Listen not, they say
Wickedness is in the air
And this one to whom you pray
Was never really there
Set me free...
Father won't you
Come and save me?
You know that he's got me
My brain is all messed up
And all of my dreams are
Falling out at my feet

Lies, you're my
Pride and joy, dear
I'm gonna make you cry
Take away everything
Give me some time
I'm gonna make you sing
Come on
You know you want it
So let's go
Don't you listen to him
I've got everything you need
Little boys want candy
Little girls just wanna bleed
He'll tell you lies
Cause he ain't got
The things you need
Just take my hand, my darling
I'm gonna make you fly
That kind of purity
Is not the stuff
Of which you dream
So come with me, dear
I'm gonna make you scream
Don't you listen to him
I've got everything you need
Take the worthless
Take the greedy
Take the children
Take the needy
Take the people
Sight unseen
Pick the bodies
Pick them clean
It's no surprise, my dear
He told you you'd be there
Why do you cry, my dear?
You know how much I care

She's a real tease
Leave you dangling
Out in the breeze
Waiting for the big squeeze
She won't say please
And she never agrees
That a woman's place
Is on her knees
I hate you fucking little girls
Oh, she's got class
Carries herself with poise
And all that other trash
But I don't care
Cause she's got a nice ass
And if you wanna catch her
You'll have to run fast
Why do I need you fucking little girls?
I hate you fucking little girls

Give It Up
02:43
|

She says I can't get it up
Long enough, just to please her
But the guy next door does the trick
She'd better give it up
Cause it's my turn to squeeze her
And I don't care
About some other guy's dick
It's a tragedy
Cause I don't wanna do this
But you give me no choice, my dear
I'm gonna give you up
Cause I don't want to need you
In the morning you ain't gonna be here
I left you out
By the curb with your suitcase
Only you were inside it, my dear
They're gonna pick you up
With the trash Monday morning
When he comes, you ain't gonna be here
And if the neighbors ask
Hey, what happened to your girlfriend?
I'll just tell 'em that you're
Out with your friends
That's not really true
Cause I know where you're off to
And you ain't coming back here again
I am harder than a rock
Who the hell are you to talk?
And fuck that guy who lives next door
The bastard went and made my girl a whore
She says I can't get it up
I've gotta give her up
She says I only get it up
Long enough, just to tease her
But the neighbor sees
Her through to the end
She'd better give it up
Cause it's my turn to please her
When she's gone
She ain't gonna come again
I am harder than a rock
Who the hell are you to talk?
She says I can't get it up
I've gotta give her up

Stuck in My Head
03:32
|

You tell me lies
And you fuck with my head
You make me wish
I was somewhere else
Instead of this place
I've gotta break free
You make me forget
What it's like to be me
You're out of your mind
Get out of my head
I've been burning my time
I've been living in the red
But I know there's a way
I try to break free
And of all the people
You had to pick me
You push me around
I push you instead
I try to forget you
But you're still
Stuck in my head
Baby, you're still
Stuck in my head
You knock me down
You say it's my place
Woke up from this dream
With your blood on my face
But I'm gonna get you
And you're gonna cry
Cause one time, I loved you
But now it's 'goodbye'
Get out of my mind
Get out of my head
I try to forget you
But you're still
Stuck in my head
Baby you're still
Stuck in my head
Follow me for a second here...
Hector was a good boy
Didn't really want to play
But she tied him
To the bed post
And took all his toys away
His mother fed him vitamins
To make him big and strong
And Hector killed the little bitch
And then, he wrote this song
Get out of my mind
Get out of my head
I try to forget you
But you're still
Stuck in my head
Baby you're still
Stuck in my head
You push me around
I push you instead
I try to forget you
But you're still
Stuck in my head
Baby, you're still
Stuck in my head
You're still stuck in my head

He's gone and left you
Says that you can't relate
And open up a little
Stuck against my skin
There's something slippery
Spark, a shudder
Deaf and damp and waiting for a breath
Before I'm in again
And all the murmurs in the world
Are just a whisper in my ear
I'd rather stay right here
I swallow sick
And beg forgiveness
Don't you know I've aching penance knees
At night I bow my head
I know he said
That you don't understand
I hear you whisper in my ear
I'd rather keep you here
Don't want to give you to nobody else
There's something slippery
Spark, a shudder
Burning ears and keenly listening
Like the animal I am
I darkly wait
Against the rhythm
Deaf and damp and waiting for a breath
Before I'm in again
And all the murmurs in the world
Are just a whisper in my ear
I'd rather stay right here
I want to keep you all to myself
Don't want to give you to nobody else

She Lives for Chastity
03:20

She says she don't need it
A man who can think for himself
Is hard to find nowadays
She says she don't want it
But I think that I'm
About to show her my ways
Keep your pants on
Don't you ask me for this
Time and time again
Keep on begging me
You'd think your dick
Was your only friend
It's kind of pitiful
The way you wait up
For me at night
But someday, I'm gonna make it right
She don't want it
She don't need it
She don't need anything

(Shhh) Don't Tell
03:53
|

Baby, put your clothes on
It's time to go home
Cause I've done some thinking lately
And I really think I'd rather sleep alone
It's really nothing personal, babe, but it's you
Oh, I'mma make this short and sweet
And girl, when I'm done
You had best retreat
Whoa, baby we are through
Baby, it's all you
Babe, it can't be me
Baby, can't you see?
You and me was fun for a while
But it died
And I'm sick of tagging along with you
When there's other places I'd rather ride
Baby, cut your losses
It's time to move on
And girl, I ain't gonna say this again
Step off, get back, I ain't your friend
Whoa, baby we are through
Baby, it's all you
Babe, it can't be me
Baby, can't you see?
There is nothing I can do
It's all up to you
Baby, don't you know?
I've gotta let you go
You think you've got me all figured out
But I'm gonna cut you down
No, baby, you can't fight it
And those times you strung my pride up and down
Well, I got some news for you
And I don't think you're gonna like it
I said a-one, a-two, baby fuck you
Two, three, baby fuck me
Whoa, baby we are through
Baby, it's all you
Babe, it can't be me
Baby, can't you see?

Such a Mess
03:30
|

Your sex is
Dirty poetry
I never had a choice,
That I could see
Really all I
Want to do it sing
But sweetie, I can't
Do a goddamn thing
There's something
Stuck up in the
Corner of my brain
I pick the pieces
When they fall
Out in the rain
But baby
Don't you forget about me
You know I've always
Been the one
That's really free

Ian Marquis Portland, Maine
My songs are tiny ecosystems: self-sustaining, self-contained, intricate, and densely layered. I'm captivated by found sound and immaculate production. I sample my own work. I chop up my guitars and create arrangements I could never have played. I treat my voice like an instrument, pushing and pulling it in otherworldly directions. I polish each track until, sonically, it feels like it sparkles. ... more
