Cry with lovers
When Fern let's go
The Heartbreaking beauty
Of being small

there's No pleasure without hurt 
So pick good poison
Get used to taking turns
And leave my island
All bridges burn
So hit the road
Don't listen to them telling me where to go
I never really learn
Until my heart gives up on timing

Clouds remind me of
My mother's voice
Redwoods stood silently
As I hear her ghost say

Theres no fishing without worms
So pick good boyfriends
Get used to taking turns
At cooking breakfast
All bridges burn
So hit the road
Don't listen to those fuckers 
tell you where to go
It's not always gonna work
But it feels better to let somebody in

Every time you think, you are avoiding death

Why Don't We?

So here we are

you're getting what you're giving

in cars, cover

a sample of "i know what you did" inspired the whole thing.

GOGO

Im a spider
Watermelon bits of you
are beetle-covered
and evaporating with

winged sheathes whispering
deliver unto us
The igniter

Holy god listening
Didnt anyone 
not tell its not done

Every lost 
connection 
in my bed
resting their 
fingertips 
on my skin
in the half-light 
rose-tint dusk
Dusk to dusk dusk dusk+
Dust to dust dust dust

I’m the bible
Tattered poems David knew
In my body
On my knees beside the pews

Mother made me chivalry
Deliver unto us
The honest ones

Holy god whispering
Didn’t anyone 
not tell its not fun


Dearest they 
I Live With
did you mean to 
leave this gun
in the light
Yes, we did
But now we’ll
Just be friends?
Not be friends?

I’m the crying
Animal in me confused
hunts for meaning
But clarity isn't a muse



Kinstugi Detective

John left himself in the river
As hes drowning a man of God
He knows now that the people wont listen
Until Yahweh is weeping their blood

John sees himself in the water
Under the locust moon
In the dark desert his Father
Rubs the red salt in his wounds

Hold down
Underwater 
What you feel the most

Take it
To the river
To the Holy Ghost

Make this
My last day of pain

Just make this
My last day of pain

Mary nailed her heart to a cross
When she killed that temple dove
And spread its blood on her screaming baby
She knew then they would never give up

Now Mary waits at the edge of the city
with her Father and the locust moon
Two women bring the shadow of her baby
She wets her palms in the tears of his wounds

Hold down
Underwater 
What you feel the most

Take it
To the river
To the Holy Ghost

Make this
My last day of pain

Just make this
My last day of pain

I’m still alive but
I’m still a liar
I’m still alive but
I’m still a liar
I’m still alive but
I’m still a liar
I’m still alive but
I’m still a liar
