Reality

Written and composed by: Rabbitology & "Pickel"
To my friends, to my city, and to the lyricist (Pickel) who wishes not to be credited but deserves it nonetheless...

LYRICS:
In the halflight, can you hear me calling all right, yeah

stickin’ are times in the 419
when the woods hung brown, pale but no sunshine
like  stickers on fruit we’d chew with nothing else to do

in her time before our prime,
a primed facade no we don’t mind
an abode for molding memories true 

oh, city the city, this city’s lined with something
the city, this city, she’s got something
city, the city, this city’s air is something
holy 

Calling lately, can you hear me, calling Maisie
Can hear me? Calling faintly—
A little weary, a little shaky, 
Can you blame me for going crazy!
Will the memories push on daisies?
Can you hear me, blurrin’ hazey
Can you hear me calling lately…

friendships last but scenes do pass
Soon meet again in the queen of glass
Refill what made us what we are

Souls together, worlds apart
Mind’s eye please remember our start
ground me in a realm now afar from here…

Calling lately, can you hear me, calling Maisie
Can hear me? Calling faintly—
A little weary, a little shaky, 
Can you blame me for going crazy!
Will the memories push on daisies?
Can you hear me, blurrin’ hazey
Can you hear me calling lately…

pourin’ wine on the flame of the 419
hard to understand how so sublime
how to ever reach that time, again?

Calling lately, can you hear me, calling Maisie
(Oh-i-o, Oh-i-o)
Can hear me? Calling faintly—
A little weary, a little shaky, 
Can you blame me for going crazy!
Will the memories push on daisies?
Can you hear me, blurrin’ hazey
Can you hear me calling lately…

419 [Dorm Demo] (ft. Pickel)

Lyrics:

I’m burning wick to fingertip with sage
from my shaky-shakin hands
Millie, what have you done to me,
my friend?

I’m tossin’ turnin’ in an open grave
coined-tongued with whatever I can save,
carrying hauntings of a brand-new age—
Millie, can’t you see I slide
planchettes with my wake?

Catch me walking with the ghosts again
Must be on that double dose, depends
Roman chamomile all down the throat, lift hands
In Michigan, the lakes all darken
Blackbirds flocking to and fro, sevens
Roots drag marsh over the floor, levelin’
Millie, can’t you stop them? You slow no omens
like exhaling, it never ends

I’m coughing up elderberry on the stage
like your sacrificial lamb
Millie, hypnotize pain away, I beg

I’m whisper-hissing notes on every slate
that I scribe and toss into the hungry waves
carrying itchings for a familiar ache
Millie, can’t you see I made a walking stick out of my stake?

Catch me walking with the ghosts again
Must be on that double dose, depends
Roman chamomile all down the throat, lift hands
In Michigan, the lakes all darken
Blackbirds flocking to and fro, sevens
Roots drag marsh over the floor, levelin’
Millie, can’t you stop them? You slow no omens
like exhaling, it never ends

Three redwing blackbirds outside my window
two fish heads at my door
What be this omen, I’ll never know
Millie, warm the kettle once more

Three redwing blackbirds outside my window
Two fish heads at my door
One kettle bubbling atop rusted stove but
Millie, warm the kettle once
Millie, warm the kettle once
Milly could you so please be 
a kind old dearie just for me
and warm the kettle’s tea once more?

Catch me walking with the ghosts again
Must be on that double dose, depends
Roman chamomile all down the throat, lift hands
In Michigan, the lakes all darken
Blackbirds flocking to and fro, sevens
Roots drag marsh over the floor, levelin’
Millie, can’t you stop them? You slow no omens
like exhaling, it never ends

Millie, Warm the Kettle

I wrote this song for my childhood friend, Stephanie. 

Sometimes my feelings are too big for my body and I can't do anything for the people I care about when they are going through rough times. Except to be there for them and write them songs 😅

Evidence of her arm being broken as the cover art - oops

Shoutout to Joseph who played guitar with me for this show 🤍

Uploading this in honour of Steph's 30th birthday!!
