Room for the Roof

Bend a knee at every mountainside to find that you're a fly
Fall behind every sometimes, a place to sigh and shrug in line
Clutch a crutch but slip in powdered wind a shrinking blanket on the bed you're in
It's safer now to say, that your lumpy mattress broke your back again today
Divide you
The common factor underlined
I have found you sound like common time
A stale metaphor couldn't buff your slacker shine
Moving tables and chairs, couches and loveseats
Making room for the roof, making love for the time being
Moving table and chairs and couches and loveseats
Can I always choose to float and forget
I could stare at the oranges, the last thing I'll remember
I could stare at the oranges, the first thing we'll forget

Bread and Blade

[You are]
Half a broken blossom bell
The bone to wood to wind
The weight of dust upon a petal folding in
The violent lintel of your fin
The shape of bread and blade within

I'm a Whole Damn Town
03:36

Deep hole with a velvet sheen detained in mute serene
I fear we've been asleep for awhile now
You'd think our silent friends would've left some clues
Never thought I'd roam along without you

Relay

Breathe in, it's simple
We race, save ourselves
And pieces of ourselves
The earth opened its mouth
I'd break my back again
Prying you from soon-to-be lifeless jaws
Lids lift: soft vice grip
Motion of a flat tire notion you'd long since changed

Thumbtack on your comfy chair
We read the stories on the lines between the stars
We shouted back at them, they wouldn't let us start
Changing the narrative of who we're supposed to be
But when I look in the mirror
Thumbtack, pointed you out
Dead planet holding freight
We've since ceased to create but still we're satellites at arm's length
Spinning like your favorite record from a long-expired band
We're lightning in the sand
We've lost the plan to change your crooked ways
But there are lives at stake and bones will need to break, while we wait for
Better days are here to stay
No matter what I say, I need to live a better way

Do you recall the day you heard yourself wake up
The day was not today, I walked with my friends
I held you once inside myself, and spat you on the beach
Where I stood miles tall, you were merely feet
If I had taught you how to walk your shoulders would've scraped the clouds, and Venus would replace your crown
We once were miles tall, but turned to miles long
We laid down
Russian doll, I slid my torso apart
You can never come back

Can you still feed me through the foggy pane?
Cuz something in your gaze made me glad I'm awake, made me glad
Cuz you are the sink, the tap, and the drink
The warmest ink
Your stare's got me thinking...
Won't you stay awhile?
Won't you die for our good time?
I'll stare till all I've got is a white spot

Nosferatu Weekend
04:31
|

|
Wet watercolor crop canopied the pounding pavement
Steady soundscape 'cept the swerves and circles
Arms rotate around an axis, but I couldn't keep the clock
I'm only right two times a day
The quartz is cracked
I've had my fill of moonlit wisdom
When I think I've had a vision through a lens composed of cumulus and strategies
My back-pocket tendencies
The satellite I never see spinning faster
And I might've spoken about prying these eyes open
But by the time the dawn has broken...
I'm paved into the bed
