At last my words found you
Through the maze, behind me
The response I received was the
	tequila audibly trickling
Filling your glass more than you
	thought I'd see

You say you don't like this darkness in me
But you've seen nothing but yourself
When you fall, you fall so fast
Into the hollow depths of your party


Your head's above water, treading
Treading, treading, treading
The depths below remain below
This coldness is hollow, I know, I know


Your deafness screamed til I was leaving
The realization on your face
Crowds out the visions of what I've been
	missing
The hollow depths of this space

To leave you with one last thing
I've been hoping for you all day
That the sun will rise one hundred times
And you will be okay


The hollow depth of no choice
Meets my warmth of the getting out
The hollow cold, the hollow cold
I'll be the sunshine when you turn around


Your head's above the water, treading
Treading, treading, treading
The depths below remain below
This coldness is hollow, I know, I know

The Hollow Cold

I've lived your lie
Or was it the truth that changed
And if truth could never stay the same
What trust could ever grow?
From the aches in my bones
I ignore and muster strength
I move forward
I love forward
Until breaking limbs give in

When will the rain come
The pain is telling
Heaviness over my head, over my head

I've lived your lie
Or was it the truth that changed
And if I can hold onto nothing
I'll release these resentments
From the aches in my bones
I ignore and muster strength
I'll dig deeper
Than these hands can bear
Until breaking limbs give in

When will the rain come
The pain is telling
Heaviness over my head, over my head

Let the Heavy Down

I was an animal once
Now you can't recognize me
My bones tan with my hide
Remnants of what I was
I was an animal once

The worms eat my thoughts
Recount my words in their dreams
Yeah the worms dream of me
They dream of what they eat

My mom told me the crows would
Pluck my eyes
And my god she was right
I was an animal once
I knew I'd grow up to die

Now, now you see every piece of me
That I wanted to keep hidden
The secrets my skin kept
Scattered on the pavement

Side of the Road

what did you say about making out
that we'll fall into a black hole
off your tongue, I jump in blind

appropriately, for me, for me

This is Making Out

between the sun's shone
we stayed up in my room
the ghosts above your head
enlivened us our moods
this tantalizing choice
I'll see myself too soon
the ghosts within the bed
will dominate this room

he was pale
he was long
and he loved her, course
and he loved her of course

I melted into being
alongside this thing
predator loves me so

not fore, we heard a whine
a coming down in the black
across the room, I glanced at him
but he didn't care to glance back
he was pale, a devil's white
he was long as stretches night
and he loved her, course
and he loved her of course
 
I melted into being
alongside this thing
predator loves me so

the ghost of all
or of that not yet
a stranger in this apartment


Ghost Cat's Song

I feel her light
I feel her deep
The window's down
Her breeze gentle on me
Drive her away
Or steer her down
Into me
I feel her cold and warmth
Locked onto me
So fast, she moves me like crazy
The little subtleties
I notice while I drive


And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
I'll drive, drive her into me


The shape of trees
The little subtleties
She noticed while I drove
We picked out clouds
Our road abounds
Together far from home
I saw the way
She looked at me
From the corner of her eye
Blue and green
The little subtleties
I notice while I drive


And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
And I'll drive
I'll drive, drive her into me

Driving

I don't even know, it's like
She's got these little things
these little sayings
that pick me off my feet
and I saw her working
She's so determined
Can't tell if I'm strong or weak

But the way she sighs
When I play that song
My words between her knees
Brought me round
it's like I'm  going down
On an entire symphony

And I dreamed of these
Landscapes between her knees
And I dreamed of these
Landscapes between her knees

She's stoned before we go
And before we wake
How penetrating I became
When I go in and
She tells me to slow
I am, I am
The sun was rising
The sun was rising
Above her van
Slow down she said
Go down she said
I am, I am

And I dreamed of these
Landscapes between her knees
And I dreamed of these
Landscapes between her knees
And I dreamed of these
Landscapes between her knees
And I dreamed of these
Landscapes between her knees

Tiny Little Things

The boy isn't
Almost always
Either or neither
He, maybe

He may be
Girl-shaped and formerly known
Felt like a him
The boy isn't

Almost always
Ambiguous she
That lies within
Felt like him

Girl-shaped
Almost always 
Daddy's princess
Felt like a him

soft decline, 
Evoke my fading
Oh soft in my eyes, 
The curve of hips
Unusual body, not quite fixed
what creature is this? 

She's half him
The boy isn't
Almost always
He, maybe

Daddy's princess
Felt like a him
Ambiguous she
That lies within

Sort of a girl, kind of a boy
The boy isn't almost always
Either or neither, he, maybe, 
Felt like him, felt like him

soft decline, 
Evoke my fading
Oh soft in my eyes, 
The curve of hips
Unusual body, not quite fixed
what creature is this? 

Girlshaped

strawberry skin
Red and white
She toys with me
Pressed between cotton sheets
she wills and bends
a sweet secret
such soft skin
freckled like seeds

sweet sugar
the red and white
prod the depths of the night

the animal wrapped round my hips
I give it strawberry skin

touch on her edge
and she blooms
without request
she still grew
and she flowers too 
welcoming me
under my tongue
it tastes so sweet

the animal wrapped round my hips
I give it strawberry skin

Girlshaped

Kind of a Boy
