High Low

Lonely Dorm

I want to matter in somebody’s life but I can’t find a reason
Some days I want to be somebody’s wife- but it won’t last a season
I’m going down, to forage a carnival
Light & free
I’m going down
To somewhere far away from me

Take it in stride; my buggering eyes and quick turning face
In a concrete landscape there’s no glory to humble this state
I’m going down to gut with my wonderful canyon hands
I’m going down
Until I’m as tiny as sand

Could I hear a reason? Give me something to go after
I just live in the staleness that permeates pretended laughter 
I’m going down
Deeper than roots of a walnut tree
I’m going down to the place that is furthest from me

down

just some chords i came up with a while back, all tracks are first take
