Before I Leave
02:47
|

If I try and move on you could count on my falling
Or doubt settling on less than content evenings
And mornings before I...
Or doubt settling onto the
Things that I've been planning
On explaining
If I stand beside what seems like one whole
Pieces of twos and threes always make me think
Of the sleep we miss

Bedfellow
04:52

I’ve drawn a line through furious circles
Eyes obstructed and dry
In time red branches grow
And they confess
The isolation’s a friend but I want to speak to you
There’s so much distance
I’m blacked out, but on your grid
You’re the spotlight on the season
I’ll be dying in
We found a lonely stage
Two hearts that beat through gravel
In any part they play
You’re not my hero
We’re not happy children
We don’t need to lie anymore
We’re just creases on any face outside
Always so sorry about so many things
And always tangled
In smoke drifting with sin
Beneath sheets through palpitations
Breathing fiction
You’re a strangled compass
(the orphan of ) a sigh through empty coasts
You showed me quiet discomfort
In delicate tones
And I’m your bedfellow
There’s so much anger
How can you hold your grin?
Please let me in the basement
You’re dying in

Migratory

Useless nights in driveways that never end
Where promises are just remember whens
Where’d you learn to collect scars like that?
Consequence hangs heavy but never touches ground
Fill winter lungs and hold it
Talk of migratory birds and the will it takes to leave
We talk of lights in tunnels and the view from the ground
Everything looks different from these places that we’ve found
Autumn, hollow and hungry, changes with you
Echo veiled superstitions
We’ll ride this swell until we sink like stones
With a windswept fear and a deep regret
Bony fingers
Distractions
From how we see ourselves
A series of tiny deaths
And empty breaths
And meaningless moments

In Passing
04:06
|

Years spent waiting for our lives to show their faces
Never quite knowing how to feel our ages
All those times we choked on tongues
Lost sight of the truth between fingers and thumbs
Driving past houses, driving past past lives
Moments lost to circumstance years sacrificed to distance
All those times we let the current take us
Echoing patterns when words escape us
Missed connections and empty promises
Only remind me of who I should have been
If distance is only numbers, then I’m only counting backwards
Until I find myself starting over again
I’ll try not to think of all the life we miss.

Retreat; she follows the season down the coast
Tired evasions, a fractured infant smile, and half her plans in code.
A red-branched blank stare
But I’m prepared to break your path
Every hand that you led beneath your sundress
Defied and weakened
But I know it’s cold, I will be careful
And gone as fast as our hearts are slow
I read your body like braille
Soon the mistakes become so clear
When you stumbled into that simple town
And found the only man you truly loved giving up
Your father in his favorite chair
Now I’m choking meaning into my pseudo friends
What you’ve ruined somehow beats you in the end

Sleeping Away the Storm
05:20

Surroundings make backgrounds to real emotions
Missing spaces go unnoticed seen from sore eyes.
Don’t try to resist these months
Darker than highways at night.
Hide myself in white and black
I wont resist it, at least not on purpose
Everyone’s sleeping and I’m trying
Everything’s loud when you’re trying to sleep
So I’ll hope for rain
And I’ll leave truths
Old rules dont mean what they used to
I can only see through glass
When I convince my self you’re not around
Surroundings make it hard to breathe in
I'll exhale when reflections disappear
So I’ll hope for sleep
