A Glow
03:25
|

|
I have seen so many shapes
Of facial expressions
That communicate: Who are you? or What are you?
And how the fuck did you wind up this way?
Isn't it nice to feel loved & appreciated?
Twice this week
I saw a glow emitting from housemates around me
The friendship, the respect
How lucky
Isn't it nice to feel loved & appreciated?

Every pie I bake has no real taste
And that's why I want a new profession making something great
But what can be done? What can be changed? I've already moved up the ranks

If you wanna be alone, just tap me on the shoulder
I'll tell you all the things I like the most about hearing that echo of an empty room
If you wanna be alone, don't be scared to let me know
If you wanna speak your mind, then find another friendly face
Not that I don't wanna hear about your life your goals & your dinner, but I'd rather not eat shit
If you wanna speak your mind
Take somebody else's time

Clean folded laundry
A fresh eighth in the ball jar
Aloe takes a cat nap
In the patch of sun by my feet
I've got everything I need
All my ducks around me
The telecaster's not far
Oatmeal bowl from this morning
On my floor tom nightstand
I've got everything I need

Company

If you ever feel that no one will remember your face
Don't consult the mirror cuz it will whisper you evil things
Alone, or with company
If you ever think that you invented your childhood
At least think happily that your invention turned out so good
Alone, or with company
And if you ever need a beating heart beside your bed
This one will be free, and you can do what you want with it
Alone, or with company

[I already know]
That I should not
Be where I am
But I can't help
The things happening
[I already know]
That this phase will
Be gone too fast and
I will likely
Wonder what's missing
From my book of
Knowledge and experience
But I can't help
The things happening

Mass Ave.

All I do is walk until
My feet are sore, until I see
The city behind me
In the glass, in the screen
It rises up like a storm
Like the rooster in the barn
In the morning, here I wait
Here I wait for it to pass
Staying dry, yellow boots
Massachusetts Avenue can't
Keep me dry, not that I
Really want it to
All I do is walk until
My feet are sore, until I see
The city behind me
In the glass, in the screen

A Place To Be

Comfort can easily operate on who is nearby
But lasting warmth is harder to find
Promise me you won't leave like all the others have
Comfort can easily operate on who is nearby
But lasting warmth is harder to find
Promise me you'll say goodbye at least
I know it's temporary
But I'm thankful still
To have a place to be

Everything is going
I am entertained by the things
That I have found & put around me
Delivering then puttering all evening
My element needs me
We are finding our footing
We are digging our footing
Everything is going
I am entertained by the things
That I have found & put around me
Delivering then puttering all evening
My element feeds me

I will bob right up to the sun
Let the rays reinvent my form
Till I can't think of my name
Letters will show up on my skin
Labelling let the public in
She is he is they
Flowers don't pick their shape
Appreciate the colors
Flowers don't pick their shape
Appreciate the smell
It's a person
Sit on the porch swing and marvel at the sun with them
Countering everything we learned
Differently raise your boy or girl
Otherwise they'll be alone
Designate how you say hello
Dress or pants, painted up or no
Her is him is them [wave your hand at them]
Flowers don't pick their shape
Appreciate the colors
Flowers don't pick their shape
Appreciate the smell
It's a person
Sit on the porch swing and marvel at the sun with them

Acid Batteries

I curled up, couldn't handle more
Than enough, my throat was so sore
"Toughen up," you were nice enough to whisper
I tumbled down your stairwell
But I know it's not I who fell
On that day, it was you
I rolled around on that carpet floor
Made a mess of all of my words
Flowing out against my tongue
Said to no one, said to everyone
All of you found that I run on D's
When they opened my shattered sleeves
Just to find a broken machine
Ruined by the acid batteries
No one can save me now
I can't replace them now
No one can fix me now
I'm too corroded now

Temporary Plates

Look, it won't last long sir
What's a little phone call?
I swear to god it blew off in the wind
If you need the number
It's written on this notecard
I promise sir this won't happen again
Temporary plates
Adhered with tape
Just complicate my travel
From here behind the steering wheel
I fail to see appeal
In stealing things just to steal
And with all due respect sir
If I were a carjacker
I would've set my sights a little higher
Temporary plates
Adhered with tape
Just complicate my travel

I don't know what I like
But it's gotta be something nice
And I don't know what to buy
But it'll always be worth its price
Or it wouldn't be so high
But why?
I don't know what to drive
But it's gotta be in lime
Or I'd be ashamed behind its wheel
And I don't know what to try
But it won't be all that nice
Or I'd have found it by now
But why?

Stomach

I've been writing all alone
No one bothers me at all
Sometimes I wish I hadn't burned that bridge
I've been waking up alone
No one calls me on the phone
But I get better sleep without a second pair of kicking feet
I've been getting out of work
Claiming that my stomach hurts
And it really does, but I've said it one too many times
I was sick of our routine
Smoking cigarettes & weed
And I'm glad I got out, but now I can't tell my up from down
And I know you'll be fine
You're already fine
But it just isn't right
I can't find my way out

Wait

Wait, don't put on that face
Cuz everything was going so well
Will you dance with me?
Please dance with me
I'm so desperately asking
Wait, I'd like to feel your cotton dress
But I'm a mess, you notice, my voice so shaky
Your head says no to me
But instead of changing scene
You're indecisively waiting
Wait, don't give me those eyes
I never get what I wanna get and now's not the time, never time
Because I've had a few
My hands would be so rude
So I run away from you
And cry in the street

Heavy Humidity

I open up my eyes
I hear the pattering rain
Bouncing off the windowpanes
From above
I could see myself getting lost inside today
Not above or below me
The rain clouds my mind, heavy humidity
It's on my eyelashes
But I can't see it
I roll to my left side
My eyes crave colored light
But everything inside my room is gray
The sun is failing
I could see myself falling back asleep today
Not above or below me
The rain clouds my mind, heavy humidity
It's on my eyelashes
But I can't see it
Creaking bones
Sopping soles
Undertones of green & blue & gray
Heavy humidity
Above & below me

Rotting Clementine

Tell me where, tell me how
I'll find the spot
Meet me here, beat ya there
This parking lot
Tell me where, tell me how
I'll find the spot
Passive glance, do I care?
I care a lot
Look me in the eye
I'm your clementine
Rotting from the inside
Turn my mouth into your trash can
Tell me where, tell me when
I'll find the time
Reconvene, broken screen
You use a whole lot of mine
Look me in the eye
I'm your clementine
Rotting from the inside
Turn my mouth into your trashcan
Look me in the eye
Attract the biting fly
Morph into a dandelion
Fragile, puffy, white
Tell me where
Tell me how
I'll find the spot

I wish I could open my eyes as I walk outside
But everything made of water gets frozen in February shitstorm time
I'll stay high until it's 50
And time to go on a hike, come with me
Yea, we'll probably bring some weed
But that'll be a while different green
We'll smoke it smiling
Text me and I'll reply quickly
We'll divvy up remembering 50/50
I wish I could open my eyes
But everything made of water gets frozen in February shitstorm time
In the meantime
I made us tea
With cayenne & lemon juice
Ginger & honey

All your idols will fall someday
But people will guide you anyway
And even if you don't want them to, they'll be ready & willing & open-armed & waiting for you
All your idols will fall someday
So you gotta prepare for someone new
And she will be eager
And he will be limitless
And she will be stoked that you exist
And he will be thoughtful & active & & &
