Past Tense
04:34
|

|
tears in the fabric, doors that can never be found
a piece of the story remains in the sound
travel through power lines and radio wires
forget about your fear of death for a while
wandering aimless streets in your college town
eyes staring wide at your feet on the ground
echoes of silent songs ring like ghosts
the moon is peeking in through your window
but your eyes stay closed

Circles
04:41
|

|
magnify my expectations
help me grow a part of me i've never known
all our righteous indignation
most of what i am is just for show
calcify my inhibition
i'm not scared of sleeping alone
all i have is my contrition
and the time it takes to grow the seeds you've sewn
ride your river of sun to avoid everyone
tributaries are veins to an ocean of flames
where we all float the same
i wish i was the one spinning circles with you
with your bare feet on the coast
(push my broken pieces into place)
every breeze carries ghosts
(your eyes can see every inch of space)
become that river of sun
(pain rides the crest of a wave)
til all your songs have been sung
(won't you please believe what i say?)
now we're part of the great cosmic something-or-other
every person on earth becomes a piece of each other
do you believe what i say?
do you believe what you do?

Songbird

my green eyed songbird, sing to pass the time
knowing someday soon, you could always fly away
but you don't, you choose to stay
my green eyed songbird
making ourselves at home in andromeda's guest room
a neighbor's empty space never felt so much like you
wrapping books in butcher paper
i'm singing songs about your sister
oh wednesday, killing time
clean your room, ease your mind
weatherman, tell me the future
how are we to be anything less than you and me?

Parade
05:34
|
|||
|
watching the same parade from two different points of view
i might spend my whole night looking upwards for you
you were making plans before the world began
your thoughts are on the screen
paint them black and green
calculate the time it takes for cosmic seeds to grow
from parking lots and shopping malls
to galaxies for show
isolate the sunrise, present tense and past
weather vanes and still life
future still intact

Slur
04:46
|
|||
|
and i know you'll feel the ache when your halo starts to break
when i die, become the rain
indignation self-expressed, replicate our emptiness
when i die, become the rain
sleeping in separate beds, but i'm baptized in your sweat
apostolic head aflame
though the end remains the same, it was built into the start
there's a whisper in your chest
temporary happiness for your nineteen-twenties heart
grey eyed thunderclaps dictate my relapse

Concrete Bedsheets
03:58
|
|||
|
one too many times your tongue, it forms advancing storms
and it struggles to find adjectives for the divine
and your hair turns grey before it all falls out
teeth decay before your heart gives out
ripped jeans reveal scraped knees over concrete bedsheets
tear out all of my pleasure points
my words are only noise
so spill the pity from your spine
your ego crashes into mine
|

Present Tense
05:57
|
|||
|
slide into me, embracing apathy
scabs on your heart, lay naked in the street
swallowing teeth
they fall out in my dreams
angels sneak into your room
trees bear fruit only for you
atoms remain, but the air is not the same
stairs to the sky are capillary veins
calculated pain
our dreams are the same
your breath in syncopated time
sonically identical to mine
souls are sideswiped on the sheets
skin is blistered from the heat
angels sneak into your dreams
erasing memories of me
