Bury Me

Always Watching (voice memo demo)

I

(oh wow) 
(oh wow)
(oh wow)
(oh wow)
i wish that i would keep the harley better
all i can fathoms staying in my bed 
a blinking little light: a dime of feathers
some kind of abstract ball of golden this 
i wish that i would keep the harley better 
warm tangents like a diamond, the abyss
a winking little life of coyish flutters
i catch each secret given with a kiss


II

i wish that i would keep the harley better
the things you tell me feel just like a kiss
i wade in you, cosmoscopize your mutters
in waver of your here and there and this
i wish that i would keep the harley better
i wish i was intangible as it
i gloss the shoulders fuming at the weather
i might still ride and risk it all for this

“This song was unusual when it comes to how we typically write. Mackenzie and I met up at the studio and there was a general sense of being burnt out on the songs we’d been working on, so I was happy when he said he had a dream the night before and wrote a song in it.  — As he demoed it out, I pressed the record and just happily listened. I had no idea what I was going to sing about for a good while, then the first line about a baseball bat came out. The lyrics are about a strange exchange with a friend and the rest describes how I feel toward the friends I’ve kept. Somebody told me recently my lyrics can sound encrypted so this was my best attempt at writing on the nose."

I bought every word when you told me that
But anything’s convincing with a baseball bat 
I was on a roll
I was useless
But I always came home before the news did 
Did I think of you then, no
Do I think of you now
Yeah, at least I hope so 
It’s hard enough figuring out where this place is
So why the long lines and why the long faces

I know you were let down by my wording
I felt sorry—“Hey now, don’t say for me”
Blue green sunbeam 
Fade out 
Now that’s something 

They don’t know how they sound when they’re joking 
I didn’t try to stay the same
I wore you out
I changed my name yes 
You are a soft drum in my chest
You fill my lungs 
You fit me best 

I know you were let down by my wording
I felt sorry—“Hey now, don’t say for me”
Blue green sunbeam 
Fade out 
Now that’s something 
They don’t know how they sound when they’re joking

French Cassettes - Baseball Bat

FLYING SO LOW

graceless - lyrics

w/ a graceless gaze, and a dollar bill adorned
  he kept his eyes to the west,
     she kept his cold heart warmed
in a sudden flash, the weather had changed
  the air was foul...as the words exchanged.

he tried to run, because there was nowhere left to hide,
   he thought he had found a friend, but they only robbed him blind again
w/ a coin in hand..a caring voice like a compass rose
  he kept her pictures safe and juxtaposed

in the strangest way, it still feels close to home
  praise the only pride and joy...he has ever known
he tried to settle down, when his meddle was still strong and true
           a sip of whiskey hits the floor,
                     while her flower petals start to fall...

Graceless Gaze - v3

Lyrics 


(Rifleman has drowned) 


you went with him 
and it’s tearing me apart 
can’t pray to god so I look in the devils eyes 
and told me to play my part 
somedays can’t hold the weight 
you don’t care anyway 
float away 
float away 

can’t stand myself  
but I guess that’s called a start 
I know I’m odd and I will be until i die 
but right now I hear my heart  
my life’s on a replay 
you watch it everyday 
float away 
float away 

won’t end it all 
they can’t stand to see gone 
so I look and nod, and start to figure why
why my life’s so hard 
I know that I can’t stay 
but my life is gray 
float away 
float away 
yuh
