Uh-Oh

Green lights, let's go
Back door, no show
Back up, go slow
Turn on the radio
Oh-Uhuh-Oh-Uhuh-Uhuh-Oh
Throw out the mundane flow
Cat call, puppet show
Downward dog, sloppy joe
Wink wink, quid pro quo
Hog tie, hello
Bottoms up, Pernod
Overdose on salmon roe
Reject the status quo
Bright lights, death row
Ten down, free throw
Strip down, electric glow
Your yes is someone's no
Give me your Oh-Uhuh-Oh-Uhuh-Uhuh-Oh
Give me your Oh-Uhuh-Oh-Uhuh-Uhuh-Oh

Stay

Stay, please stay
Don't walk away
Coins come with two sides
Can we make it past being human
'til the days we die?
There will be cries.
Stay, please stay
I have wrinkles with your name
A heart you have claimed
A smile that became you
Stay, please stay
Here with me
And touch the corners of my face
And share this breath
This rest
This arabesque from two worlds
real friends are likely to stab you in the back, they’re inclined to twist a knife as they try to get on track. It’s clean minds taped on dirty mind taps of my dear by draft, paper tears this craft, ink reflects those laughs and the times we shared - all the twists and drinks with lime I remember your stare...whenever I reminisce missing first embraces to the very last kiss. The last gift. The first day that began with a first step in a direction of a horizon that will swallow you up forever twisting your back but never giving you back leaving you with a photo to just wallow, you wept
left,
as a said fool on furniture
looping your life, no beat thumperer no heart for your box and only freestyle your thoughts
Love letters become props for posters and shit..sometimes filters for that greenery lift
Now what I wouldn’t give for that greener tip of that lover side that other side. Truth predates lies but still remain eternal coldly you lay for our way memories become infernal
stay
And the vessel's empty
You blinked me out
Your perfume's stained our bed
These ghosts I cannot wed
These tears in vien I shed

Let's play a game
Mother Goddess
Let's play a game of rock paper scissors.
Oak and Ash and Thorn
I collect you, I collect all. I protect you, I protect all.
Let's play a game of rock paper scissors
Solid Real Complete
I collect you, I collect all. I protect you, I protect all.
And govern the rock weighs me.
I'm full. From your lustful flesh. Your lustful eyes. Your prideful life.
Let's play a game of rock paper scissors.

I'm so close to tears.
You thought you knew me...

Make it Right
05:14
|

You and I must make it right
Those words your burned were an over sight
Don't overdose on your own ego
You and I must make it right
Let go
Look below
There's a thousand mirrors sitting pretty

I taste your breath, breathe in your soul
Fingers touch and bodies roll
Faders up, we lose control
Fly for me, just let go
Scratch the surface of the beat
You're born again of my body heat
scream my name on the mercy seat
kisses have never tasted so sweet
I've scratched you, left my mark
Your mine now
(Can't forget me if you wanted)
I've scarred you, broken you
Fixed you up
(Can't forget me if you wanted)
I'll turn you on, throw you down
Greedy glances as I spin you around
I'll speed you up, slow you down
Don't be quiet, give me your sound
Rub my words, under your skin
Open my crate, select your sin
Change the tempo, lights to dim
Close the doors, dance within
I've scratched you, left my mark
Your mine now
(Can't forget me if you wanted)
I've scarred you, broken you
Fixed you up
(Can't forget me if you wanted)
Blindfolds off, Needles are on
I strip you down and mix you into this song
Cut you up with my tongue
Brand you now the music is strong
Sweat with me
Breathe with me
Dance with me
Give into my Renaissance

Into These Lips
06:59
|
|||
Breathe life into these lips
I beg of your fingertips
Paint her crescent give the eclipse
I beg of your hips
Draw a map, circle the womb
Leave the lights, turn on the room
Fingers guide your mis-steps
The criminal record of your heart
Say it with confidence, without arrest
Pull the strings, play the part
I'm not responsible for the scars in your eyes
Would it kill you to move my way
Way beneath where your comfort lies
Shed a layer, kiss the day

It's a Sunday afternoon
The cat's asleep on the windowsill
You said you'd see me soon
I held back a smile
It's a Monday afternoon
My hands are shaking and my drink spills
I tried to find the broom
I held back a smile
Its a Tuesday afternoon
My purse is empty but for a dollar bill
I tried to hum your tune
I held back a smile
It's a Wednesday afternoon
I haven't eaten and I feel ill
You think I am immune
I held back a smile
It's a Thursday afternoon
The phone rings and I stand still
I tried to find the broom
I held a smile
It's a Friday afternoon
I stand up with my living will
I looked up at the moon
I held a smile
It's a Saturday afternoon
I leave the house and I'm dressed to kill
I said I'd see you soon
I said with a smile

K>X is the alter-ego of Australian bassist Lisa Dowling. She created her out of a need for a more specific space for her own
musical experiments. What began as an exploration into her identity as a bassist evolved to explore her identity as a composer, multi-instrumentalist, vocalist and most importantly, a woman who creates.
