Lyrics:
My unreliable memory
You, a stranger
Possibly a warm night
Otherwise immune to danger

And with this newfound freedom
I'm done longing
Even if I don't mean it--
It's certainly forgone.

But I close my eyes, I see that bench
So much wiser to just forget
I close my eyes, I see that dress
Wish I could get back what I left.

Hazy and wet
I'm alone curbside
In a belt of empty streets
I'm lost and taxiless

I am never full
I'm always thoughtless
I sleep all day
I make no choices.

But I close my eyes, I see that bench
Wish I could get back what I left.
I close my eyes, I see that dress
Wish I could get back what I left.

The Bench

Lyrics:
You're smaller than I pictured you
Sallow and lean and porcelain
In the box where you put yourself
Outnumbered to you in the flesh.

I fall asleep not thinking about you.
Believing I'll remember the words.

Infinite monotony
To be a bit extraordinary
I can pose and I can pretend
In my dreams you know it's just a con.

I fall asleep not thinking about you
Believing I'll remember the words
There you are then the words are gone.

Lyrics:
I hold a thread between my thumb and forefinger
wish I could stretch these threads a little longer
lose the fated scissors before they could sever
now kissing you is dark
 
Eyes close, then open.
It’s no use. It’s no use.
Tied in loose ends of you
wish your light was flooding in.

Now I dream of a day in an opaque future
Where cities wisp past and we get what we hoped for
put your lips on mine and your fingers in my mouth.
Eyes are closed but light’s gleamin' at the edges

Eyes close, then open.
It’s no use. It’s no use.
Tied in loose ends of you
wish your light was flooding in.
