lyrics:
We were curled up into balls on a trampoline underneath a lit night sky taking turns bouncing each other up into the air, and I was hoping you were getting as much flight as I was but you weren’t, you never left the ground and I was at home alone in Detroit, a faint memory of the scent of your skin playing on a loop in my head, endless configuring of sentences you haven't yet said. I miss how your face felt in my hand and I miss how my hands felt when they were around your neck. And I'd do anything to get it back. 

Three months no contact turned me to a gnat
I've been thinking bout your skin, I'm still tryna get attached
I've been crawling up your walls, I've been building me a nest
Are you trying to get rid of me, are you
Uh oh, I've fallen again for another I can't see quite yet
I'm so jealous of the ones who can see you often

Your breaths became sharper as my tongue caressed your neck 
Your soft spoken voice telling me to come here after my head rested between your door, I miss you 
Your mind is like a fire that quickly spread to all my idle thoughts and lit my eyes ablaze

Lyrics:

intro:
(much love)

verse 1:
head is spinning round again
all my life I've been out of it
tried talking but it's counterfeit,
couldn't beleive it
but it's all in the way that I think that

pre-chorus:
I got everything I wanted
what am I gonna do now
you kept thinking of everything
you couldn't say out loud

chorus:
and I let you down a little
you watched me Freak Out
I can't help but hope that
you'll stick around (woah)

verse 2:
I can't describe this feeling
these words bounce round and around
till the find some meaning, yea
they always come out blue
tell me again why I just 
couldn't see it through
now I'm afraid to lose you
and I'm dodging the truth
it seems I've made you the reason
I need to think that

pre-chorus:
I got everything I wanted
what am I gonna do now
you kept thinking of everything
you couldn't say out loud

chorus:
and I let you down a little
you watched me Freak Out
I can't help but hope that
you'll stick around (woah)

(freakin out, you'll stick around x4)

Freak Out

with @9nasu
i used the fly in the wind
i used to sing with all of my friends
but suddenly i descend

you don't wanna see this
when i don't feel like breathing
and when i close my eyes
i can barely catch sleep
i can barely feel

i won't waste your time
i won't be online
i’m trying to make it right
i'll still be home

i know it will be just fine
know i can't go, no i can't forget you
i know it will be just fine
know i can't go, no i can't just run away

i used the fly in the wind
i used to sing with all of my friends

i'll make it alright
find me home, i know it will be just fine
know i can't go, no i can't forget you
i know it will be just fine
know i can't go

when i don't feel like breathing
and when i close my eyes
i can barely catch sleep
i can barely feel

i won't waste your time
i won't be online
i’m trying to make it right
i'll still be on

i'll still be alright
i know it will be just fine
know i can't go, no i can't forget you
i know it will be just fine
no i can't go

mourning dove with nasu

so put me in
i'm sugar free i'm fresh off the bench
i'm temporary, dust in the wind
and this is just a place to me now
yeah i'll be the one you talk to not the one that you kiss
you'll get bored of me like you got bored of him
how quickly can you turn it around?
lately, you make me think i'm losing my head
the jester's at the foot of my bed
and he tells me boy you gotta come down

and i'll wait, and i'll wait, and i'll wait
my train has been delayed, and i wanna go home
let me go home

see you on a weekday
watch your favorite movie
you know that i hate it
though i try to change it
i get lost in my convictions
and insist that i'm deficient
you find me kinda boring
read me like a story
write a scarlet letter
and burn it to an ember
oh, it's ashes in the water
but what i'd give to be with you now

and i'll wait, and i'll wait, and i'll wait
my train has been delayed, and i wanna go home
let me go home
and i'll wait, and i'll wait, and i'll wait
my train has been delayed, and i wanna go home
let me go home
and i'll wait, and i'll wait, and i'll wait
my train has been delayed, and i wanna go home
let me go home

+ ambience + voice memo at the end

suspending in my talk, something i’m not telling ya
suspicious in my walk, have your eyes caught, not telling ya

cuz i want to show you just what it is that i see
you’re like a collage of pages from my favorite magazine when we talk it feels like paper cuts inside my chest that make it hard to breathe
cuz you’re the one that’s written in my diary that you wish you could read

as if i know how to write, i do but my lips love to lie
can you repeat after me, if you won’t then i’m blinded seeing sides

just don’t understand how someone can come into your life and everything could seem like, oh obviously it’s going in this direction and all of the sudden, it just

diary

I’ll fix this later


life is move to the bed
and then move to the couch

i was digging up something
than figured it out

“i guess that isn’t really all that you’re about”

i flew over the ocean to learn how to swim
i was born contradictory
how am i him

it was something i cried about 
making me grin 

it was something i cried about
making me grin

tell me something i didn’t know 
i want to be reminded of my infancy 
show me how i’m not good enough
i need to reach with my hands while there’s more to be 

on a saturday watching the plan for the stars 
spending monday with looming hearts
beating out hard

you were some kind of city 
it caught me off guard
i was born to be shattered
you shuttered me out

life is move to the bed
and then move to the couch

i cried weaving threads with the words in my mouth
there are flocks that will migrate
as i’m moving south
i had need to be shattered
you shuttered me out

Flocks

retiming these guitars was the worst 37 minutes of my life
