Temporary
02:23
|
|||
i'm so alone
at night
her florid body right
sleeping at my side
and turning from
the lights
i feel so temporary
in the corner of
the rooms interior thoughts
dividing/divining out the walls
the shades and the blinds
undone
i feel so temporary
i don't like you
i don't talk a lot
haven't tried to
take the filters off
i don't like you
when the lights come on
florescence/fluorescence outside
i just might
not feel so temporary

Better Days

better days
yeah, i've had
better days
but worse ones all the same
still find their endings when
i go
better days
they woke up sick and late
but lately everyday
just seems to blend
into one
long note
better days
yeah, i've had better days
but worse ones all the same
still find their endings when
i go
better days
what warm thoughts fill my brain
to know there's better days
still waiting for me when
i go

i'm done singing
about a place
that i cannot
accurately name
and i'm done wishin'
upon a star
that may or not be
really there at all
i'm so important
i'm so really
not
and i'm so ready
i'm so really
caught

Second Guess
03:23
|
|||
and i'm starting to feel:
i'm losing my mind
all of my sense
all of the time
i'm starting to find:
notes from old times;
i'm losing my friends
left and right
and it feels like i just might
and i'm starting to feel:
so sleep deprived
noon's been my moon
night's been my light
i'm starting to see:
the grass isn't green;
i've tried watering
maybe next spring
and it feels like i just might
and so i'll
second guess my second guessings
and treat it like a blessing
cause lately i'm just glad to feel alive
and though she might leave me
it's not like she is me
or that without her i would die
i'm actually doing
just fine

August Snows
03:11
|
|||
sometimes i feel normal
like it's a brand new start
and then i wake from my dream
and my head bursts apart
and then i go outside
when everything is dark
and then you call me crazy
- but i have a right
to go
against reason
though i
suppose
what feels like treason
is to my
surprise
ignoring instinct
til' august snows
bring me back to bed -
sometimes i think it's over
and then it's really not
and the things i thought left me
have been there all along
so then i go inside
where everything is warm
and then you call me crazy

So Lost
02:31
|
|||
i'm so
lost again all
my friends are
timbre-lin/temperate they're
crying so
out of mind
i get
lost sometimes
i'm so
caught again both
my arms are
wearing thin they're
trying for
simple space
i can't not
complicate
i don't mind
i like my
florid/flawed sense of time
i get
lost sometimes

Hi
01:09
|
|||
at the k-mart
where you said to me
you had tried
everything
and you're so
not inclined
to say
hi
at the city market
on the fifth
you had said you
got your wish
that you
had this, one more time, to say
hi

Static

i wanna be surrounded by static
took by fluorescent lights
i wanna be surrounded by static
made into florescent light
*static surrounds and light breaks through*

Long Sleeves
01:28
|

and so i'll wear long sleeves
and you'll crash your parties
and i'll find my way
out somehow

and covered in red flags
you'll say that it's my bad
and you'll scratch your wrist
and i will too

Now
05:35
|

i'll shave my head
if you'd
like that
i'll stay inside
your rooms
borderline
i'll make my bed
in marcescent
catatoniac
i'll go outside
and leave window shards
for you to find
-

*when i get too stressed, i shave my head, and i'll tell you why: each hair that falls off from my head is like a small goodbye. so with all these adieus across the floor, and farewells filling the drain, it's impossible to leave the room and still feel the same*

Shade
03:35
|
|||
i'm waiting
for my leaves to grow
i can't do it
all on my own
i'm trying
not to be afraid
but i'm dying
out here in the shade
--
give me sunshine
and i'll
turn it all
into flowers of white
yellow light
give me sunshine
and i'll
throw it all
into fragments of my
selfish life
give me sunshine
and i'll
burn it all
into rancid summers
melting color
give me sunshine
and i'll
grow it all
into lushness, undone
air given up
---
i'm waiting
for my leaves to grow
i can do it
all on my own

I Miss Now
02:53
|
|||
boxes up high
your clothes and mine
i see you smile
and it's like you said
that how this works
is you go first
i think you're right
but you can't smoke out here
when your friends downstate can't
figure it out
i miss now
--
feeling outpaced
by your highway
hearing you say
"it's not over yet"
suspension of air
as you leave here
and i think you're right
and it's like you said: "_"
--
when your friends downstate can't
figure it out
i miss now

towhee's over
one year older
don't need hindsight
to see things weren't right
towhee's over
the girls all sold her
cigarette staircase
cracked door embrace
and i'm so, i'm so, petrified
at the rate which doors shut tight
towhee's over
a year less bolder
records we'd play
broke eventually
and i'm so, i'm so, mesmerized
at how quickly plans subside
--
*a short dive into the past that leaves you feeling immensely unable to change anything*

Every Night
04:30
|
|||
i can't stop
writing songs
that i don't wanna sing
i can't stop
thinking thoughts
that i don't wanna think
and it's over now
as the lights go out
and it's over now
every night
i'm so, tired i
i don't mind
i'm so, tired eyes
dodging mirrors
thinking clearly:
that i can't see myself
living past
daily tasks
sorting through osedax
and it's over now
as the sound goes out
and it all falls down
every night
i'm so tired i
i don't mind
i'm so tired eyes
--
and all awake
lying in my bed
and all the same
morning comes again

the car feels faster
when you're high
i'm so inclined
that i just might
i wonder
every summer
where you'd land
when plans fall through
your arm falls faster
under mine
you've sewn a smile
when you say bye
i wonder
every summer
where you'd land
when plans fall through
i'm distant
every year spent
chasing bedrooms
flannel from you
