No Name Dec.15 2021

The things we said
They haunt me
I lost myself
Still running
And now my head 
Is empty
Besides a figment of her and some solipsistic verse 
that still rends me
Well, I'm better off than many other endings

No flowers in fields or stairways of light
Gifting me the courtesy of delight
Still, I can make it through another night

Fall into the sky I wrap my arms around the daytime moon
And find 
Myself 
Still smiling
So that's where it's been hiding
So that's where I've been 
So that's where I've been hiding

Still those things
We said
They haunt me
I lost myself
Still I'm finding
Every tear I shed 
Dregs of some dance inside my head
A dream left wanting to be found again



Solipsistic Verses and the Dregs of Other Curses

When I fall asleep

I find

My dreams have left me far behind

And when I wake

I see

The world's moved on without me

So here I'm stuck between

While days roll by, cascading

Hardly time to catch a breath

And my will to go on keeps fading

I guess it's all used up

It's the year for sublimating

I guess I'm all used up

 It's the year for sublimating 

Cascade

Im not okay
And that's just fine
I've been high a couple times
But riding low is where I shine
I've seen you smiling
How divine
Now flay my heart
And split my mind
Can't take it back
We've spent that time
A little less 
Of you
For me
Would be so kind
Now I know what to do
I'm over turning the page
And rewriting lines
Just burn the book
And dance in the ash of another night
I'm not okay
But it just seems right
I've gone too far this time
It's not okay
But that's alright
I'm too far gone this time

Book Burning

I see you

It feels like it used to

I want to go home right now

Need to be alone right now


I don't believe

Things will end up alright for me

You're an optimist in training 

And my glass is broken on the ground


You were the comedown

Hit me like some mad disease

Had me shaking at the knees

I'm still struggling to breathe


You told me that somehow

You were gonna cure my frown

And rip all the bad parts out

But they're all that's left of me now


I'm over holding out

It's clear to see I'm a bag of bones

Tied up with a thread of hope

That's long since frayed into doubt


Bones and doubt

In the express lane on an exit route 

I want to go home right now

Just leave me alone

Please leave me alone



Bones and Doubt

I gave it one or two more nights than I owed you
But in the end we had it out like we always do
Still, the absence is new

There's a spider in the window that now goes by your name
Just to keep me sane
Though it's responses are more of the same
Silent every day
While she spins her web
Though I'm already trapped inside of my head
Waiting to be bled

Here I wobble wasted wishing I
Could go out for a drive
And find a pretty place to hide
Happily inside

Finally the long fought goodbye ends now 

I gave it one or two more tries but I think I'm through
In the end I'm looking for an out like I always do
I can be absent too

Finally, the long fought goodbye ends now

The Long Fought Goodbye

I'm sorry we never met
Before I broke the part of me
That would be good for you

It's so sweet of you to worry
About a wretched thing like me
I'm still in disbelief
You're not make-believe

Need a pinch 
On the cheek
If this is all a dream
I'll be back to counting sheep

Wrap me up
In these sheets
I'll be fine with solitude 
Whatever gets me back to you

What's left
Underneath
This pillow is a note that goes
Leave me I'm done growing old alone

Alone

I'm sorry we never met
Before I broke the part of me
That would be good for you

Counting Sheep

This is a rough draft phone dump soundcloud so be ready for low quality, pitchy, broken recordings of songs I am working on and don't want to forget.

Thanks for listening and please let me know what you think!
