we can't bother just stare across the same night
summer sky, the shattered blue
your pieces cut my insides up
they're splattered but inside me still
you're waking up

pulled down every cloud for you
my eyes are milky white
this morning rained inside my head, but it's open now
let's paint it full of everything we used to dream
i'm smiling are you listening?

can't count down to nothing
can i count for you?
building up to something
i can't live to be the piece you lose

swallowed the the ocean
with the colors flying by
i'm coughing up the plastic traps
the broken glass is heaving
just to see the strike that lit your eyes

i'm pissing all my time away you're in a different state
everything's reminiscent;
empty blue can't seem to recreate
the place we had two years ago
i'm wrapped in red, it's possible

the sky projects a burning reel of different pictures; we are somewhere
the sky projects a burning reel of different pictures; we are somewhere

we are somewhere

Place: And So, Once Again

perfectly cool at sunset
a rot wraps around my gut
tiny tears in my body
resolve to obsess,
abscess,
and call me home
impressing sheets i shed again
your blanket stare; my injured soul
bandage with words i love so much
too many's never quite enough;

hey did you know
it's fingers intertwined that end my day?
behind my eyes you're in a photograph
your lips against your fist
both skinned and dry
and did you know
that empty promises hollow a space
to disregard
until it hurts to drain
until your irises fill with black paint?
did you forget between the dry swallows i held your hand
and held your head?
so that you wouldn't drown
while it was emptied out
into a paper cup

i feel where you used to lay
and moved from talking to screaming in your sleep
the air that we used to breathe
is thick with pollen from words we wrote
but you never spoke

wrapped in your hair with your veins around my neck
sewn arm in arm; a red marionette
winding vessels crocheted in through our fingertips
pulling, tearing, spilling
so we can rattle and be still for once

we're out of touch with coarse adjustments of hospital beds
i've had enough
sore eyes and twisted spine
your body against mine

frozen;

sanguine.

To Bite Bruger's in the Neck

words, hooks, and sinkers in my chest
"do you feel better?" 
"i don't know, it's for the best"
but you're in bloom 
and i'm scared you're better on your own
cutting up bookmarks out of all our paper lanterns 
i can't move with all our chapters held in place
in pale green pools you made time stop
grasp at the moment; i try to lose all of this loss inside the ground
but i'm scared that i'm just losing you
a floral portrait passing gently through my bones
i miss your room; a warm pink light
a garden framed in summer's mortal rush
i don't know if these branches are tall enough 
to reach past all this silt
or carry all the sunlight in your skin
you're in bloom
and i'm scared you're better on your own
picking apart flowers left by headstones;
under porches i can't move
without the silence of your face in summer's mortal rush
don't tell me i'm not strong enough
to carry you myself 
and let go of the sunspots that i held

\[T]/
felt better today
driving 95 on 93
against the sun 
accepting change
but some things haven't changed for me
so we can relearn how to leave the window seat

running on the ground
climbing through the trees
a slender thing
a third body we forget how to feed
your canvas pulls the morning through a glass jar 
filled with lightning

another cloud of smoke
blocking out the sky 
has found it's place 
and settled over the city
we could burn a thousand miles away
but still I'd look up at that gray

and in the ground i'll figure out 
what the fuck is wrong with me 
so we can hit the lights and finally get some sleep
well i figured out i figured out 
what the fuck is wrong with me
so we can circle back around
and then we'll circle back around again 

don't choke on smoke signals pouring out from the corners of our mouths
to the back of our closet
you'd know the place

felt better today
45 right past the lake
against the road
against the grain
sandpaper arteries
i'm raw but i am clean

and in the ground i'll figure out 
what the fuck is wrong with me 
so we can turnover and finally get some sleep
well i'll figure out i'll figure out 
what the fuck is wrong with me
so we can circle back around
and then we'll circle back around again 

to hope we get a better view
and hope it's magnificent
i know it comes around 
i know
come back around to me

If Only I Could Be So Grossly Incandescent (Demo)

Whited out
Any hope for change behind painted-on doors
Punched out my last window
Screaming at empty streets 
where someone wants to listen
or cares to purify the thoughts we breathe
My lungs have quit on me
I live in fucking dreams more than real life
Sometimes of freezing nights we stop to think
but then we get drunk or fall in love and forget
We're not worth half our weight in gold
to half the people we know
and I know I'll stay a ghost
All my friends stood and watched me drown
but it seems we all forgot not every cloud can have a silver lining
My veins ran thicker with water
but my last drops of blood are turning blue to red


Blue Blood

My whole life's painted on the wall
A severance with myself
Nailing up organs feeding all the wraiths without substance
You caught the slightest scent of blood
and you were upon me
Bored in our self-indulgent way
It's never enough for us
This is the part where you beg me to stop
And you could light a fire and let waves carry me to sea
The selfish, sad part of us is the same
And I won't catch the wind with all the holes left in me
You always said
You said we'd stay the same 
but anomalies always change to what we know
You always said
we'd always stay the same
but anomalies always change to what we know

What Antacids Have To Do With Braindeath

At dawn I thought I saw you in the trees looking down laughing at me
I couldn't let go
I just can't let go of your eyes
and down you go
Down the drain
with the blood in my voice
Last night I swear I saw you watch me lose my last grip on my sanity
while I wasted myself a thousand times
just to keep on waiting last in line
You were my name
I'll never hear it sound quite the same
so full of bullshit and contempt where you were frailty
My best friends
they were my rock
and you left no stone unturned
I saw you tamper with evidence
you would blow it, or throw it up
I once knew this kid with some confidence
safe alone, so you smoked him out
and these are last words you don't deserve
Never
Never again

Wilford Brimley

This song is by Modest Mouse. It means a lot to me. This is a shitty cell phone recording of it I just did cause it had me feeling fucked up. I make a lot of mistakes.

Bankrupt On Selling (modest mouse cover)

So I absolutely love this song, and could never do it justice, but it's connected with me too much for me to not play it. I still REALLY need to redo the harmonies with a volunteer with female vocal cords. 

Grey Ice Water (Modest Mouse Cover) Demo

I fucking love this song and album so much.
