it’s been a long time since someone commented I’m listening by coincidence

ruthless light of day
storytelling check. 
is this double vocals of just you ? 

I love the lyrics "in a sunlit tavern, in a corner booth, suckin stale popcorn, there I met dear ruth." The melody is simple and sweet, which almost makes the content more heartbreaking "she'd only just lost the baby." Heavy stuff. I like that the story is being told from someone who actually doesn't seem to know her outside of what seems to be that first encounter. Beautiful song, Michael! Thank you for sharing. - Estar

first heard this song a little after someone i was rlly close to had passed whilst pregnant, that one line really hurts to hear

listened to this somg while the happiest i ever was and im trying to get there again

and also i'm really scared - fox academy

coming through the filter
sweet upon my lips

the smoke mollifies the lung
into which it rips

in a sunlit tavern
in a corner booth

suckin stale popcorn
there i met dear ruth


she'd only just lost the baby
seven months and a week

drank a month of Seagram's
kissed me on the cheek


never would have been my style
but i could spot it from a mile
that might mean a world of good
if we got friendly for a while


oh what a dear
my dear girl
might have been

in my 9 dollar room
there was nothin on tv

she asked if she could use my toothbrush
"it don't bother me"

"I thank you for the company"
she most solemnly said

when I woke the next morning
she had fallen from the bed

quite a sight I have to say
where once had blossomed a bouquet
now all but wilting like a leaf
in the ruthless light of day

oh what a dear
my dear girl 
might have been


Ruth, sweet girl,
there's no place for you here in my little 9 dollar room

SHE DOESN'T LIKE YOU, SHE'S BEING NICE

i know i’m friends with the trees
they peer out my through the windows
silently staring back at me 
i want to root myself deep in the ground
i want my arms grow strong, bear fruit, be home to the bees
let my blood turn to sap and my fingers into leaves

i want to go back
let me return to the ground in the ashes of the earth
my bones are just carbon
or star dust
i can stand my sentient form
let me return to the place where i was born

i can’t see the lines they’re blurred
i say i do my best without my sight
when im hurt the most
spread my ashes when i die
don’t let me be enslaved to this form
particles separate

i want to go back
let me return to the ground in the ashes of the earth
my bones are just carbon
or star dust
i cant stand this  sentient form
let me return to the place i was born
