A Garbage Bag

Patience,
They tell me.
I'm waiting and waiting.
If I fuck this up,
I'll be
Exactly the same as every other time.
These things don't work.
Can I throw them out?
Who will
Carry
A garbage bag
With me in it?

A Late Arrival

A late arrival
Caught on a sea or a highway
We all waited a lifetime
A sudden passing
Everything happened so quickly
No one had time to prepare
And the lights are all flashing
Through the glow of a low hanging fog
The shimmering whisper of hope
That time might stop
An ancient silence
Pressing its sides into your skin
You open up wider

I'm confused...

Perpetually single,
And always alone.
It's difficult to mingle
When you're locked in a room.
Waiting in the silence
for the jingling of keys.
Hard to tell the difference
Between days and weeks.
Covered in your own shit
And dozens of fleas.
So,
I guess you're not alone,
I guess you're not alone,
I guess you're not alone,
Indeed.
They'll have fun,
They'll make love,
and they'll make little ones
for you to feed.

Not Human

You close your eyes
And you hope you're right
That no one else can see
The way you're moving
You believed the lies
That you breathed inside
But now you're choking on
The truths that you've been chewing
And the child in you
Has been torn in two
And they laugh at you
Now that it's been proven
And it's hard to understand
Because you know that you're a man
But you're not human
Now the pressure of
The leather and
The steel against your skin
Is leaving bruises
They put you
On a table on display
And break your bones
For their amusement
And all the while
You force a smile
Because it's warm inside
And you want them to let you in
But you're just naked on the ground
Trying to make it through a crowd
Because you're not human
I'm not human
I'm not human
I'm not human
I'm not human
Be

The End to Come
08:11

All my things are broken,
All my things and my insides
I paid a fortune for the token
But I don't want to take the ride
Because I don't know where I'm going
Or if I'll even ever arrive
I just saw the light glowing
And stared so long that I went blind
I know your little body
And I know the way you bite
I can't do nothing about it
So I just let you bleed me dry
But could you at least stop the shouting?
It's keeping me awake at night
It's so god damn crowded
How can this be all in my mind?
I'm just waiting for the end to come
And I'm staring at it starry eyed
I'm just swinging on a pendulum
Trying to catch the moments as they all fly by
I'm on the shore waiting for ships to come
So I can signal them with my fire
And when I finally get aboard of one
I'm going to sink it under my desire
I'm just waiting for the end to come
And I'm staring out with tears in my eyes
I'm just hanging from the pendulum
My only company the hungry flies
I'm at the mercy of an endless hum
Only muffled by the sound of my cries
And in this static pandemonium
I'm sure I'm at the end of my life

yvlz New York, New York
Yvlz is the solo musical project of Yuri Velez, a disabled, multiracial musician/artist born and raised in New York City. Taken from the letters in his name and pronounced “evils,” the moniker is representative of subjects evoked in the music which swarms with fuzzy guitars reminiscent of 90s alt-rock, and washes over the listener with waves of ambient synthesizers. ... more
