 V1
Everything’s gotta be on your terms
Feels like / it’s really / hard to be heard, oh
You blank. Out. when i draw a clear line
Toss me all your guilt about something benign, oh


BOUNDARIES, ah, this is my edge
You doubt my human experience, oh
Boundaries, ah, this is my edge
You don’t have no problems
You choose to over step

V2
Ignorant of the graces you lack
Good god / Please help me / not to attack, oh
Can’t see. Thru. All the walls of my past
Even when you’re angry I’m the diplomat, oh

BOUNDARIES
Choose to over step x 2

V3
Compromise is the language you use
Tryin / to dig up / the courage to choose, oh
Snuff me. Out. while  youre burnin that bridge
Take another lifetime to build it again, oh

BOUNDARIES
Choose to over step (OUT)

Boundaries (Live)

Moving in a new direction here.

Do you remember the trip we took November?
The idea was to camp.
It was too cold to camp.

Driving up to Utah I think I saw a bull.
We were lonelier than ever, covered in wool.

Basically, I don't know. How I lost touch.
Basically, I don't know. How I got this much.

Whoops there goes again thinkin about my old friend.
Little devils on the dashboard bobbin' their heads in the end.
When people play at sorcery they heave a heavy load

I thought there would be magic there evolving in the dark.
But after the light grew dim, I forgot to cherish the gem.
After the light grew dim, I forgot to cherish the gem.

Basically I don't know how I lost touch.
Basically I don't know how I got this much.

Devils On The Dashboard

​there is a caterpillar 
in the arctic 
who freezes in the night
first its guts
then its blood
Technically it dies 

But when the sun rises
It's the first one up
To catch the early bloomings in the dawn
Meal by meal
year by year
it savors (every bite) 

After 12 years/ dying and trying 
I've formed a silken shield 
It isn't much as for protection
but it's my doorway to salvation 

More than a decade of blood and frost 
Of dying in my sleep
I'll finally earn the will to fly 
These wings are mine to keep

There is a commonly held belief 
Advice from real adults
Enjoy it while you're young
The perfect youth and the energy 
Pure sensual delight
You might as well enjoy it while you can

But I've heard a different song in my life
Like moonlight in the fog
Delay your pleasure now in youth
First the smokes and then the booze
Prepare for the cocoon

Enjoy It While You Can
