i could never get my shit together 
in a meaningful way
that worked for me 
shrugging off the mindless formalities
and broken cognition 
that leaks from me 
and no matter how many times over
this shit will bulldoze into you 
you say, what can you do?

i once existed in a binary state 
with granite walls and an iron door
i got so fucked up back then 
now i don’t cry, i just try to get by without death 
i got so fucked up by the things you said 

i peel back my skin to see what’s underneath 
pulling my blade out of its dusty sheath 
i’m ready to hurt, ready for it to work, 
i wanna cut deep this time 
but something makes me stop

magic of adolescence

concrete is shattering
we are almost under wraps
rubble unraveling
from the love you don’t get
back (back)

i swim across the river
just to get to you a little quicker
the light behind my eyes
when the chapel sleeps at night
the corner is corroded
but the message stays unspoken
i keep it in a bottle
save it for tomorrow

we’re in the old house
hold my hand to get through the crowd
they listen with black hole eyes
to words you never say out loud

wait in shadows till I cross your mind
you’ll be the (you’ll be the you’ll be the) one to see
dust me off and show me in the light
I sit like a (sit like a sit like a) centerpiece

house

in the spring 
after the thaw
comes a light 
shining through 
and the light 
speaks to you
it says, “you can move on, too”

and i’ve heard this all before 
but never quite this loud in my core 

i’ve learned to forgive myself 
and i am here if you need help
you always did think half as much 
about the sort of stuff that fucked me up 

but did you ever really believe in me 
or did you see what you wanted to see 

cause when you went 
under the stairs 
i was there 
i was there 

when you went 
under the stairs 
i was there 
i was there

most of the time (bob dylan cover)

we pass another junction
on our way to the function house
my dad didn’t want to give none
oh but yours had twice the income
and he’s still hanging around

you keep on telling me
to put some faith into the things
that we cannot see
but it goes down like it did before
signal out, then we hit the floor
and there’s still seven more

when we stop to take a breath
i start to forget about the rest
of the people just like you and me now
face down in the concrete as they bleed out

no time to commiserate
we’re making one last getaway
under the cover of night
to try to wipe the slate clean
would it just be wishful thinking
or could you call it a crime

and when the smoke finally clears
will you take it all in stride
we circle around the block
where you once lived
past the swing set
where you and me used to get high

and you remember the taste
that sweetly decayed
into another white lie
and you point out the place
where you cut the chain
and swore to my face
that you’d try to survive

so what are we supposed to do
now that i’m in free fall with you
so what are we supposed to do
now that i’m in free fall with you

absolute free fall

i’ll choose my next words carefully
to keep this focused on you
i know you’ve been trying
to bring it into view
and i gotta say, i’ve been squinting too

after all that we denied
rushed back through
after all that was implied
came looking for you
sinking lower to the tide
in crepuscule hues
but i am ready for the ride
yeah yeah yeah

we fuck up
and then we repent
we clean up
so we can make messes again
i’m a bird without a tree
on a highway stretch
you’re passing me

and i reach as far back as i can
in the throes of my mind
if i figure out this high-wire act
i know i’ll be fine
i’ll be alright
yeah i’ll be fine
i’ll be alright

you’re a moss covered shrine
with a thousand blinking eyes
i’m a bird without a tree
when you left, you planted a seed

after all that we denied
rushed back through
after all that was implied
came looking for you
sinking lower to the tide
in crepuscule hues
but i am ready for the ride
yeah yeah yeah

and i reach as far back as i can
in the throes of my mind
if i figure out this high-wire act
i know i’ll be fine

brass tax

perpetual state of disbelief

you missed your chance
so you’re making other plans
and she’s reaching for 
the lighter on the floor 
just another day 
to push the past away
but there’s something there 
even if you’re unaware 

they’re cooking the books
and they bury the ashes 
where nobody looks 
might be too late to save face 
cause i hear them calling out
for judgement day 

you write it down 
and then you throw it out
it’s such a futile game
end result always the same 
and she does what
nobody dares to 
don’t go up the stairs 
whatever you do

they’re cooking the books
and they bury the ashes 
where nobody looks 
might be too late to save face 
cause i hear them calling out
for judgement day 
they’re cooking the books
and they bury the ashes 
where nobody looks 
might be too late to save face 
cause i hear them calling out
for judgement day 
cause i hear them calling out
for judgement day 
for judgement day
for judgement day

what is this

what is this
