Queen Of Despair (Ode To The Diode)

i'm a space cadet
 i'll be the first to admit it
 feeling inundated with surface noise skip
 swamped with static hiss crackle blip
 feel like i'm wound too tight
 mainline the power grid tonight
 hooked up to the tv iv
 drain drain all day
 whispers quietly away
 klips and blips
 steer me out into the stream
 of channel-scratching noise
 and away from the world
 space cadet
 i'll be the first to admit it
 i'm double-sided in three ways
 fractionalised behind bit-mapped eyes
 i miss your digitised face
 broken in pixelate
 desynchronise
 come unglued
 stretch out your strands
 and i'll connect with you
 disconnect with you
 stubbed out your frustration
 in my ashtray hole
 in my black-and-blue soul
 pour my brain into a paper cup and
 scrape myself across the universe
 i'll be your king of decay
 if you'll be my queen of despair
 we'll make a lovely desperate pair
