lyrics

Remorse...

( A top of the head recitation/ stream of consciousness sketch of a song to be... Likely riddled with mistakes thanks to text to speech. )

Sorry for my human being with the way it's made you cry I'm sorry if you don't like my teasing you can have all your toys back when we die I'm sorry for my human being the way it misbehaves I cast my eyes down in shame my dear for the misgivings and shade. I'm sorry for the war-torn mornings that have capsized your ancestral ships the way old pastor Ned has fled the scene he won't even leave a tip though they printed jesus's face upon all of this poker chips I'm sorry for my human being the way it never tells you whether the sun in hell is shining I'm sorry for my human being so desperate to walk on the Moon while all my children ragged and ripped go the running around like common loons I'm sorry for my human being all the promises made the way blood spills freely across the plains for some poor bastards crusade I'm sorry for my human being the way it makes the immigrants shake when we round them up and throw them all into the middle of the tire fire raging on Michigan Lake I'm sorry I can't help myself least of all not you I'm sorry for my human being the nobility of which is not true. I'm sorry for my human being who dances a jig on the ashes of Hiroshima under the head of a pig I'm sorry for my human being I have no way of explaining what he did. I'm sorry for my human being he's under the impression he's the king's kid I'm sorry for my human being and all the shadows in which he is hid.
I'm sorry for my human being the way it's made you cry...
you don't like my teasing you can have all your toys back after we die...

about

ANTHONY XAVIER JACKSON California


I am a spoken word artist whose passion is music. I use a variety of media to render my works, including traditional instrumentation such as guitar, bass and drums. I also employ synths and all the tools of my DAW to make improv pieces to back my poetry.
LPD, Burroughs, Tear Garden, Watts Prophets, Last Poets, Radiohead… so many influences.
Enjoy.
