Selfish, self medicated some
Overdosing just enough
Create compartments for the pain
Plastered and white washed twice a day
I've friends and family who are slaves to this
In a hotel in "old New York"
Out on the streets of "college town"
Those were your last known whereabouts
Where your laughter licked the rain
That was then and this is hard
And heavy is the hand that feeds prescriptions
The strength of tens of men
dripping over paws
Soften sharpened claws
With digits biting back
From fighting childproof caps
To quell the child inside
Selfish self medicated some (selfish, we medicate our young)
Overdose them just enough (just enough to keep them numb)
Create compartments for the pain (plastered and whitewashed twice a day)
Our life with one door on the grave
Heavy is the hand that fed prescription to my friend
Convinced this family is on the mend
Heavy are these limbs
Heavy are these hands
Our life in preparation
Your funeral procession

I got the best message from you tonight
I can't wait to find you sleeping sound
I've been dying for your slowed down speech
"How was your day?"
Who cares.
How are those arms and lips?
Do the seek partnership?
I volunteer
Three cheers for us we're here
Alive and resting
With next to nothing separating us From a life
Of slumber
Sound and still
C'mon lets go
This train is moving much too slow
I'm leaping off the tracks and racing home
Pack your bags
The cabs outside
The red eye flies at 2 am tonight

It's the hell hour in this vessel for now and forever, Amen
Damaged dash is spitting out the finest mist of burgundy
No one speaks my pain but me and you
You choose silence, haven't you?
....
You're still silent, aren't you?
Verging tears to purge these sins
Soak these lips to whet all of my regrets
I flick the bic and whisper last requests
Scream for me...

Kitchen Experiment Band/Solo Chicago, Illinois
Nate Meads’ Kitchen Experiment (solo/band) has been playing left of the dial influenced folk-rock with a revolving cast since mid 2000’s. Kitchen Experiment Band is like a restaurant that's loud and busy. Kitchen Experiment Solo is the small cafe off to the side that's a little less 'in your face'. The FOH and BOH staff come/go/come back, but it's the same guy writing the menu and recipes. ... more
