July, I caressed his head
rose up from the dead
we took slight turns at living
emerald gloves lost their filling
July, I caressed his head

July, we stood in the square,
watched as he burned his hair
He didn't chop it all off
I didn't eat all of his moths
July, we stood in the square

he drank my wine
said he was only mine
his door was left open
my name he had stolen
July, he drank my wine

and when he was a boy
he had a favorite toy
his was a fox,
mine was a rabbit
it's so easy for me 
not to break these habits

July

VERYROUGH!

LYRICS
she's all I have
she's all I have

when the girl with the brown hair goes away
I say my penances
I bleed from grace

I only know how to use my hands
the god who willed this 
has a pregnant smile
I only know how to use my hands
the god who willed this
has a pregnant smile

& I built a church
of mortar & stone
for hours I sat alone 
like someone who believes in god
like somebody who tried to follow the law
I knew how to bring my body to grace
how to save my face
for the man who had come to see
in the woods where I could not see
in the night
when I went away
I said my penances
I bled my grace

the girl with the brown hair was all I had
I only know how to use my hands
like a churlish fellow
who lets out a bellow
& speaks to me of the smoke
that floats through the roof
of the house I've yet to build

I've tried to write letters
to the girl I've willed 
to believe in me 

she's all I have
she's all I have
the girl with the brown hair goes away
I say my penances
I bleed my grace

For Hours I Sat Alone

VERYROUGH











In August I thought
it wouldn’t take long
to drive back home 
to you 
That's when I saw a picture 
of St. Sebastian
on the bumper of another car
St. Sebastian was tied to a tree
That could have been me
At your mom’s house 
when the sheep bled
to the core of me  
Your face was covered 
in marks & scratches
I was in the mirror
Practicing my monologue
For when you turned your back to me

St. Sebastian

(turn that volume uppppp) 

Dare I say...it??? ROUGH! PER USUAL

I’ve been feeling dizzy all day 
It’s always the boys standing in my way
Yet I am always missing them 
Their faces lined up in bouts of mayhem 
Today I held a bell in the palm of my hand

It made me feel slightly better 
but it was dark & blue
too much like the point of you 
Though the sun shone through 
like a new planet

But then my face fell over granite 
Bruises blood, the body is manic

How could you leave anybody alone? 
You left me alone, 
You left me so alone 
Don’t you know that I feel so alone

Dizzy

There's no one I'd rather be with
than in the arms of New York
there's no one I'd rather be with
than in the arms of you 
there's no one I'd rather be with
on this bicycle ride
there's no one I'd rather be with
than in the arms of new york 
& I'm still trying to remember your name
& I'm still trying to remember your name
& I'm still trying to remember your name
There's no one I'd rather be with
than in the arms of you

There's No One I'd Rather Be With

All i wanted was my best friend
To come again
Until the end 
Of time & place
Such a pretty face
Covered in mosquito bites
We’re turning off the lights
& nothing happens
I remember when we said goodbye
I nearly accidentally tore your eye
You did not defy 
Expectations
You did not defy 
Expectations 
Salutations to my old best friend
My one & only true true tale
Here’s to you my dear 
O my sigh 
I could not forget
Your holy way of carrying out
The messages you received
Even when you bleed
You are lovely
All i wanted was my best friend
To come again
Until the end 
Of time & place
Such a pretty face
We’re ripping out the words
From every single one of our letters
We’re running through the gardens
Of every single one of our mothers' houses
O i love you, you bore me, you bore me but i love you at night

my best friend

When everybody shares your name 
When everybody is on the train
& laughing at me (x2) 
When everybody has your face 
When you never left a trace 
Of compromise 
& i know, i know we could work something out
& i know we can work something out 
When everybody shares your name 
When everybody has your face & shares your pain 
Oh honey I can promise 
They’re not laughing at you 
They’re just inviting you to a party
Where you’ll forget his face

When Everybody Shares Yr Name

miss the idea of home
