FloydienSlip A rerelease of Pivot Clowj's first album that features excellent songwriting and a great sound. It's easy to see how PC got a record deal based on the strength of this album alone, and the genius shines through here! Favorite track: Clench.

Your Majesty 06:45
The snake that I had captured got away went to play didn't say the things that I would like it to and so I felt like shouting cause I couldn't get the snake to speak it just would keep on hissing, hissing, bitching my thoughts go out entirely for snakebites never heal and that poor unknowing boy who is dead tried to warn him tried to teach him of the things of danger keep him from the things of harm but he didn't listen cause they never do - little boys and now I sit here wondering why I didn't fry the snake in grease and eat it - I could use the food and little boys would still be living, laughing, shouting, screaming when they do not get their way so maybe it is better to keep the snakes alive keep them free - let them do just what they want to and maybe I am glad to see the killing streak continue it's survival of the fittest of the bravest of the wisest of the law should have stayed at home, my little boy and watched your rose and kept your planet clean.

Night falls white halls balconies of ice sliding lawns Fields send me away when you're made of gold Molds and monument stole an hour's time And still someday we will talk again Friends who keep you up in time of need Friends who lie to keep you on your feet Friends who don't count lives by what they see Me, I'm just the cold ash on the heat When you see me falling my mind on a string When you see me crawling my mind on a string When you hear me calling my mind on a string And so I will see you stretch out and weep Spirit life calls green with eyes of blue See light soon night's dark and friendly smile Roller car doors slam on my support Left with drawings of people I once knew

Doubting 03:00
Your head is shaking I want to cheer you I want to take your doubts away Maybe I'll just have to wait to wait It makes me sad to hear you cry It shakes me up when tears fall I seek answers I seek answers I seek answers Questions are obvious Who's to blame? (if anyone)

Silent in our rocking chairs our hairs are standing straight, it's late their crawling on the floor, pounding on our ears so we can't hear this penetration to this darkness I'll reside and here I'll hide no sense in what your telling me no sense in what your telling me no sense in trying to tell me that I'm still a little boy though I play with toys and synch with noise my laughing house is all your fault this dripping faucet I adore forever dripping, giving more no reason to go thirsty anymore immune to all those tiny clocks that try to wake us but we sleep and keep pressing buttons at it rings and still you try to wake me try to break me but hear I'll weep no sense in what you're telling me no sense in wanting to be free no sense in your position you are fiction you can try and tease me try and please me and who's to blame - it's you not me breathing in the thin air is prolonging life sinking falling huddled in the corner at the ball this dripping faucet I adore forever dripping, giving more no reason to go thirsty anymore this dripping faucet I adore forever dripping, giving more no reason to go thirsty anymore Picking up the candy trail on the floor will lead to more my itching feet however will not budge... HA my heart is getting colder now I'm opening the folder now I feel I'm getting older now fluffing up the pillows and knocking down the walls maybe dangerous it may be best to save the rest it's your turn saluting stars respect for man polluting 7 papers in the air it's there everywhere this dripping faucet I adore forever dripping, giving more no reason to go thirsty anymore this dripping faucet I adore forever dripping, giving more no reason to go thirsty anymore this dripping faucet I adore forever dripping, giving more no reason to go thirsty anymore anymore anymore

16 Days 03:23
And they're killing the future and I know we've seen better days and I hear all their laughing disregarding their past with closing in snapshots and minds full of new ideas with nothing to help us and nothing to feel and my everyday feelings that stand in your way keep pushing keep fighting with nothing to say

could I handle myself if others weren't around can I carry your weight if you held me down and when I mess up will you remain the same? abort the sinner burn the crooks and nothing will remain my purse is empty mind is full and mercy's knocking down my door I crack my whip I chain the slaves even though they don't exist the clutter of the rubble the burning of the trees and empty stone in sinking sand is causing our disease excess jelly in our toes excess steam floating low excess power excess guilt excess mind control because of me because of me

Siamese 04:17
I'm boxing with this rogue whose reflection is mine and I sense his freedom though his so familiar grin tells stories otherwise the facts are clear the broken throat the remaining of the day that seems to coast through the past I'm eating with this mime whose relation is mine and whose laughter leaves and open mouth of food many times I play this game - always tie my shoe and laugh and it always happens just a step away where is freedom now?! time... time looking on.. looking on I'm sitting with this swine whose connection is mine and perhaps I'll keep on waiting through the night and remaining of the day and I'll see the high winds blow and knock the bees off of my back I'm boxing with this rogue I'm sitting with this swine I'm boxing with the rogue I'm eating with this mime
