Smother Me With A Pillow While i Sink Into My Dark Abyss, Baby.

Smother me with a pillow while i sink into my dark abyss, baby.

Caress me with your halo while i sink to dreams of lust and ecstacy.

Do you still want me? Do you still need me?

Intoxicate me with the venom in your kiss while my beat begins to fade, to fade…

Smother me with a pillow while i sink into my dark abyss, baby.

Do you still want me? Do you still need me, huh do ya?

Ha! You said you’d come to me on our broadcast destiny

Oh, you said it’s me the most–your words became a ghost

This picture’s crystal mud, but you’re the best bozo there ever was

Hello, I’m Cupid, dressed in black.

Who says you’ll never take me back…yeah yeah yeah yeah…

Smother me with a pillow while i sink into my dark abyss, baby.

Lay me down six feet underground while I reach and claw, and scratch at you, babe.

Do you still want me? Do you still need me?

Look at me with more than blanks in your eyes when you meet me in the sky, high, high…

Smother me with a pillow while i sink into my dark abyss, baby.

Do you still want me? Do you still need me?

2011 Sugar Skull Collection by Bricklayer Bosh

Our 2011 Sugar Skull Collection is our first line of an annual tradition and celebration.

Our sugar skulls are inspired by Día de los Muertos, a Mexican tradition that honors and celebrates departed loved ones; a truly fascinating, humorous, and beautiful holiday.

In Día de los Muertos, skeletons are symbols of resurrection; Death is mocked and celebrated–Key clues to what Bricklayer Bosh is all about.

All skulls are hand-made by our team. 2011 Bricklayer Bosh Sugar Skull Team Members include: Dom, Scott, Tatum, Jennifer Long, and myself.

Stupid Boy

You poor little stupid boy…I’d gut you if I was a psycho killer–Put my fist through your breast plate and take your heart.

I need a new one since you broke mine.

I bet you think that I hate you.

My love, I love you too much to literally hate you.

But maybe I pity you for being too dumb to work this out.

Or maybe I pity you for not being the man that I think you should be, for not seeing the potential that I see in you.

I know why I love to hate you, you stupid boy, I used to be just like you, you stupid boy–except you have shitty taste in music, you stupid boy, stupid boy, stupid boy.

…I could devour you…

What’s more romantic than a vampire, my little stupid boy?

You’ve been draining me for years…

Thought you should know I’ve decided that I like it–it keeps us alive on a dead night.

Have you burried me?

I like to play with the idea of burrying you.

I know why I love to hate you, you stupid boy, I used to be just like you, you stupid boy–except you have shitty taste in music, you stupid boy, stupid boy, stupid boy.

If I’m a vampire, my love, I accepted your invitation.

If I’m a vampire, my love, you’re the one that bit me.

If I’m a vampire, my love, I’m hungry, so thirsty.

If I’m a vampire, my love, you poor stupid boy.

Like You Never

Another song about relationships–It’s so exhausting watching the boats sink.

This is not attack, it’s not an act, and it’s not anything that I will regret, but

Just the same I was wondering what were you thinking when we were a fling?

The thought just came to me up in my face when I saw the picture of your girl on myspace.

No, I’m not jealous, but now that it’s over it’s like you never liked me at all.

What can I say? What do you say about the strategies the pieces were played?

Now that I mention it I’ve got a few questions: Why was I your secret, hmm?

A little mistress kept in the dark.

The fire, the spark– You show her off like she’s a work of art.

No, I’m not jealous, but now that it’s over it’s like you never liked me at all.

So much for that, there’s nothing else, and I’m quite over the feelings I felt.

It wasn’t very hard–guess that makes two– Only half serious when I first went out with you.

No, I’m not jealous, it’s like I never liked you at all.

No, That’s just the way it goes– Like you never.

The Haunting

I’ve tripped and I’ve fallen

Completely oblivious to you.

Before I knew, you were calling;

Before I knew, we were saying, “I love you.”

How could I think “we” meant “us”

When love really means lust.

I used to think we would always be.

Stupid me, love knows no eternity.

The line gets longer and longer after we get farther and farther.

When I think I could die…

Was everything you said a lie?

I hate to be the jealous type when you think everything’s all right.

What does she have that I don’t possess?

At first glance, nothing is a mess.

You never liked to be ignored;

Well it never took long for you to get bored.

The line gets longer and longer after we get farther and farther.

When the girl was me, when we’d go to sleep,

The happy memories, come back, are haunting me…

When I could drown in you, you said you loved me too,

The times we spent together, you never meant forever.

Clash of the prides, to speak, could swallow all the seas,

The happy memories, come back, are haunting me…

When it was you and me, the future yet to see,

You never meant forever.

You never meant forever…

The line gets longer and longer after we get farther and farther away.

A Common Struggle

They flow through my ears,

As water flows through a river of jagged rocks.

I blink slowly as I take them all in.

I can feel them infecting me,

A virus that doesn’t die swiftly.

My reflexes throw a block,

But the sword makes a clean cut through the flesh of my arm.

A minor scrape.

I hit them with all I’ve got,

But they return my attack with a slice across my stomach.

The sword glitters red,

And my insides seep out.

I drop to the ground on my knees.

I cradle my stomach,

Then the sword goes effortlessly into my heart.

I fall forward and am then decapitated.

I slowly get back up,

And wipe the tears from my eyes.

I take in a deep breath.

It’s amazing what words can do to a person.

“Who in the world am I? Ah, that’s the great puzzle.”

“I can’t go back to yesterday because I was a different person then. “

 

“I know who I WAS when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.”

 

“Be what you would seem to be – or, if you’d like it put more simply – never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.”

 

“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn’t. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn’t be. And what it wouldn’t be, it would. You see?

 

“Alice had got so much into the way of expecting nothing but out-of-the-way things to happen, that it seemed quite dull and stupid for life to go on in the common way.”

 

“Do you think I’ve gone round the bend?”
“I’m afraid so. You’re mad, bonkers, completely off your head. But I’ll tell you a secret. All the best people are.”

 

“We’re all mad here.”
