oh no, this is a truth i couldnt face down
until i had to... oh no, boxes and book and dirty towels
until my hands blue
my home isn’t a home
it’s fading out
all these sounds don’t make any sense to me
gonna hide til its over

i take a breath and count the highway lights
i am the picture of a duck in flight
can’t get the peace & quiet i thought that id need to hide
what’s with this message that i sent out
but i cant write?
you say that we only disagree, that’s wrong. we just fight
i threw out the letter
im feeling unfettered
its not getting better
so
im moving to dryden
i turn the key and then i enter the night
im stout & flicker like the campfire light

i came out sick
i stared into the standing zone
and i needed help
these gods are quick
and life’s unfair, but masterful
when you’re just a whelp
you can call me many things,
yea, i know
but loyal’s among them
thirty-odd years and it’s all i waited for
a lifetime of tears now im melting to the floor

cerulean forever

i can be forever with you
but
can forever be you?
be cerulean? I can
but inconsequential
forever
i hypothesize
you can be starlit night
i hypothesize
forever
cerulean forever

mousefeet

new spring fresher than the old one
not all at once but eventually
moodring cracking down the middle
soon all the colors are gonna be free
statue honoring the puppy
dipping his fingers into my dreams
heartbeat tappin out the pattern
set by the mousefeet comin for me
stars wink out and i notice the apples have dried
shirtsleeves wet on the hem so i see that youve cried
let it out now
heidi, whyd you light the lanterns fast to the pathway takin me home ?

splatters
01:28
|
|
||
|
the man’s a puppet , sitting here dried out and chipping parts
eyeballs glossy clear body so wooden when you come near
he’ll give you splinters
the stubby fingers the steaming breath the milk is foaming up
into a mess love superheated and under stress
until it splatters
is this what life holds... gas stations? & cleaning snow off cars until the end? you’ve got me going , so should i start again?
it doesn’t matter. no, it doesn’t matter

rolodex
01:21
|
|
||
|
i wont speak until its over, i wont peak until im older
you want songs that show the feeling? i might be dumb , but not unwilling
seasons change but somethings sticking, the mason jar and all its ridges
scrub until i feel the cracking i just hope i got your backing
cause when you’re speeding through the rolodex of things that make you strong, your fingers twitch and tap but never faster than the beating of your heart

so says the robot

|
whenever i tried my best id end up getting less
id try not to get upset
id ball up my hands and press the sea into a glass
and gulp down the awful mess
i cannot think it, speak it,
i wont admit it to myself
so says the robot, so says the robot
whenever you ask for more
love like a speedrun, out like a gunshot

pewter cups

|
|

|
the plaster spiderwebbed
above your sleeping head
well past the meat of the day
the dreams you bundled up
and clanged like pewter cups
are now just fading away
that’s luck ? oh i suppose
who’s lucky?no one knows
just fold your hands when you pray
you wouldnt be so scarred
if you fought half as hard
and now there’s nothing to say
