We the walls, we’ve watched you for a third of your life 
2.when you were sleeping 
3.when you were loving 
4.when you were breathing
And when you’re gone, we’ll be here a long long time
 2. When you were a fetus
3. We watched the womb
4. And when you’re dead we’ll be a tomb
And a shrine to you
1.We will afford you far more permanence than you had ever asked for
2.And we will ask nothing in return but that you remember
1..When you decide to drown yourself in something you know nothing about
½.Then just remember that you will always be a part of us
2.And we made you from our flesh 
1.And we made you from our bones
2.And we made you like a statue out of stone
1/2.And we love you and we’ll see you when you’re home

We're The Walls

Love,
I’ve learned so much
Like I don’t want to be touched
I’ve learned so much inside a year
Those days I didn’t want to see you
Because I knew what it would lead to
Someone new in something blue  
I’m just waiting to expand   
I’ve tied myself to uncertain plans
For what I’m in for
And when I finally found
What you wanted
Well it wasn’t what I first wanted  
And the weight of certain words
It just might take a little longer
The new weight of certain words
Might just take a little longer
To get used to
To get used to
Love,
What the hell is in a word?
And you don’t have to mean anything you say
And we don’t have to talk about the weight
And I don’t think I want to talk about the weight 
Even if you didn’t mean what you had said
Oh I’m still glad you said it
Oh I’m still glad you said it

Love Song 2

I was never one to be patient
I just wanted someone to brush my teeth with
There’s a picture of us watching films in Nina’s basement
I was very drunk that night and I smoked and you said you could taste it
My baby has gone away to Japan
My baby has gone away to Japan
And it seems to be a common theme
And I can’t really fault her for leaving
And making a change in her life
If that’s all that I wanted to be
(I don’t know what I should say)
If that was all you wanted from me
(I don’t ever want you to change)
Then maybe we should stay a while
(My baby’s gone away to Japan)
Then maybe we could stay a while
(My baby’s gone away to Japan)

My Baby's Gone Away To Japan

The irony
It’s taking a toll on me
I’ve been missing it all
Your memory
Is a performance piece
That I’m making you watch
I feel pristine
In every single scene
That you put me on
There’s a common theme
And I was feeling kind of green
In my life a sitcom
So this is my theme song
In real life I address my flaws
But this is my theme song
And here I can confess that I want to kill my dog
Oh I fucking hate that dog
I’ve been asleep
And everything I dream
I dream in threes
I feel pristine
When I’m walking down the street
To see someone I love
When I act funny
And I can’t stop laughing
It’s not my fault
When I’m on your screen
Life is perfect for me
And I have all that I want

Theme From Julian

I’ve been sick like six times this year
It’s only April
In four months I’ve become so undone
I broke in a body once young
I think there’s mold in the walls
I softspoken I never learned how to speak for myself
All I’ve learned to do is take some pills and drink some tea
They told to stop smoking and go to sleep
They told me to be responsible and listen to my body
I’m not sleeping because it’s nice outside 
I’m not dreaming anymore
I’m not sleeping because I’m afraid I’ll die
I am scared to death that I have HIV or AIDS
What else could possibly explain
Why I haven’t been feeling like myself
Maybe I just haven’t talked to my family in a long long time
But I still think something’s wrong with my body
I can’t stop looking at WebMD
I’m obsessed with the day I’ll die
Like who will be there and will everyone I want to cry

Sick Song

I love I waste my life away
Too young to think of love first anyway
Things I don’t bother with pull at my brain
	Woah
I don’t think she even knows my name
And all of my old friends seem to think I’ve turned gay
I guess that I dressed like a girl in the states
I’ve just been trying to entertain
And I can’t even think straight
Things I don’t bother with pull at my brain
	Woah

WOAH

I could never save her
I was not a savior back then
Disregard the nature of things
That was never part of the plan  
Look how they breathe and don’t think about it
Their chests rise and fall in perfect time
Think of the weight those small words might have carried
If these walls could talk they’d say it worse than you and I
If I can’t make you love me 
I’ll be waiting a long long time
To see if someday something changes
To see if someday you could realize
	You love me
Look at how they breathe
Perfectly in time with each other
You can’t understand what you mean to me
I’ve never wanted any other
The days keep on coming through me
I never feel beautiful anymore
Everything keeps on changing
I can’t remember how it was before
Without you
And someday my love will die
And I’ll be left alive with nothing to show for it
And someday you might realize
That you’ve been lying and you
	Have always loved me

Without You

Fragment
Scorched earth
Heaven
If I loved her
Maybe
Head searched
Baby
I loved her
Your heart
Irregular
Fragment
He loved her
Thinking
Too hard
And your health
And your heart
(If you ever stop discussing me
If you ever stop listening
You never started loving me
You never started loving me
And I've got nothing pretty left to say
So why'd you say those silly words
And what was all of that for?
If you never started loving me
I'll stay hoping for someday)

Fragment

If some day they find another form
Of intelligent life
Then I’ll know I’ll have another chance at mine
I woke up to the headlines
With a picture of some dark thing it looked just like an eye
It’s dawned on me that I’ve found myself confined
And I’ve never mattered to the rest of things
But that doesn’t matter because I’ve got mine

Powehi (or: The Adorned Fathomless Dark Creation)

The call is bugging out again
Words garbled and faces frozen
I’ve got nothing left to spend
But time on you
I guess I’ve been running out of it
I guess it’s been running out
Just a few months before I drown
And I wallow in it
And there’s nothing to do but wait on you
All of the feeling
Was lost in translation
All of my meaning
Was lost when I lost my head
I chopped up your letters
And rearranged them
To make me feel better
About my situation
Subtlety will be the death of me
But without it I’m not much fun
Did you tell me what I should have done?
All of the feeling was lost in translation
All of my meaning
Was lost when I lost my head
All of the feeling
Was lost in translation
All of my meaning
Was lost when I lost my head
	(I was dreaming
	I saw you lying there on the ocean bed
	And I thought you looked lonely)

Lost In Translation

1. Four by ninety
Three sixty
Staring at the center staring at me
2. (Oh me, and you)
1. Your height was written
On our mouth 
On our broken teeth
3. (Broken teeth, watching)
1. Four by ninety
Three sixty
We were watching your growing
In your sleep
4. (In your sleep, you grew)
1. You grew so big
You shot up three damn inches
In one week
2/3/4. (In one week, you find)
You will find
That when you leave
When you leave you will lose me
4. I’ve been practically a God to you
I shaped you in the confines of myself
I’ve let you grow but you’ll always be a part of me
1.I will always forgive your trespasses against me
4.Like when you drew inside my mouth
1.I’ve hid your crying and your screams
4.Like when you were breaking down
1. When you needed shelter and sleep
4. I hid your secrets and your sounds
1/2/3/4. We watched you grow so big and strong and now you’re gone and we remain for you

The Walls

I would ask you how you’ve been
But I could never really understand
How that feels under your skin
I been living in my head
And I’ve lost feeling in my nose
And there’s an aching in my chest
I think too much
And if my life were a play
Then I’d tell you everything
All those boring sex scenes
And scars on those crooked veins
But my baby says I’m never manly
And I don’t think I’m never manly
I just don’t often think about it
But I’ve been dressing like a girl
That’s just when I’m with my friends
And we’re all way too oversexed
That’s just when I’m with my friends
And we’re all way too oversexed
And I guess I hadn’t thought about it
But I’ve been acting like a girl
Because everything that people tell me
Seems to tell me so  
And I’ve never been one with my bros
Because I feel I’m always misread
And I don’t like to feel alone
But I don’t think I even like them
I don’t want to think about bodies
And I don’t want to think about death
And I don’t want to think it’s holy
And I don’t want to think about sex
My father once said it’s holy
But I don’t want to think about death
And I don’t think I want to be lonely I think I might want friends
And I won’t ever say that I’m different I think   it depends
On things that we said to each other they’re making me think of the ways I’m compared, love
There’s nothing that’s ever been wrong with me just that I want to honest about what I’m scared of

There's Nothing That's Ever Been Wrong With Me...

rotten circumstances (Demo Version)

Nowhere's ever anywhere if everywhere's been shut down
And everywhere's like nowhere if you never even go outside
I'll find a way to make this okay and figure ways to get around

Park life isn't quite so nice when that love of mine is stuck inside
I've realized
That it's nothing personal
I've realized that
It's not about you!

I never want to be alone so I caught a car to the border line
Wondering if the gates could close but foreign nationals just take flight
Said you'll never know for sure but I say that you never tried
And all my family works from home but I would rather live outside

Put my life on hold again but I don't care too much
This home's gone cold but he said that we should run into the sun!
But he was real fucked up (so what?)
My lungs hurt when I run (and?)
And I'm short of breath (so what?)
And my parents want to buy a gun, for when the looting starts
(oh)

I never want to be alone so I caught a car to the border line
Wondering if the gates could close but foreign nationals just take flight
Said you'll never know for sure but I say that you never tried
And all my family works from home but I would rather live outside

Park Life

I saw you swimming that night
While at his party that was something like sodom
You caught your flight
Left the next day and moved up from the bottom
Shacked up with David and left me for dead
Took all my assets and left me in the red
Whatever’s needed to get ahead
I couldn’t blame you but 
I count their crimes
Climbing the ladder of another mans life
She’s in the nines
On the top floor I’m down in the ninety ninth
Her pearl necklace that I fantasized 
It’s barely legal and they took him outside
Took his legs and took his arms
The phantom feeling, a vicarious life
What’s worth in this life? I’m kinda confused

The Ladder

Making the best of the worst things going down
Keep getting closer to leaving this tourist town
Feel the weight of the world go my brain can’t stop bouncing around
Feel the weight of the world go the world keeps on talking so loud
I’ve said it once, I said it first  

	Killing time, but it didn’t work
	Making a break but tied me to the earth
	I sleep the days away, the nights pass in reverse
	If I didn’t push it’d come to me
	(If you aren’t sure then it won’t be free)
	But I’ll never push it to the point it breaks

Tied to the earth and the world keeps on spinning around
The things they’ve said stack up, they’re on to me, pushing me down
I hear their voices around me, they take turns, they’re on all sides
It keeps getting closer, I’m not sure, I can’t decide
Feel the weight of the world grow, I’m leaving, or at least I’m trying
You say that we can’t go but please love let’s just try it

I'll Never Push It To The Point It Breaks

It’s so nice here
Warm like a common theme
I was supposed to stay away for the good of everyone else
But doesn’t make sense
What do I have in common with everyone else?
I never talk to my neighbors so tell me
What do I have in common with everyone else?

Everything I’m reading just tells me how little I understand and how much I owe you
But that’s the reason I’m reaching out my gross and grubby hands so I can finally show you
	
That might be misguided
Vero says that might be shortsighted. I think
I also think it might be shortsighted
My Spanish has gotten rusty since I moved into the world
I don’t think I said what I wanted to say
But I don’t think I’d ever have it any other way

You could never say for sure: you matter more than anything else
And that must mean that something must matter much more than you
And only if you matter to me, I’d give away my heart and my health
For the sake of being happy and not being bored

If everything’s worthy and nobody’s worthless
I’d sweep the earth in front of me and make everything hurt less
I’d watch my steps and conserve all the cattle
Become a vegan and move to seattle
But that city sucks

You could never say for sure: you matter more than anything else
And that must mean that something must matter much more than you
And only if you matter to me, I’d give away my heart and my health
For the sake of being happy and not being bored

What Matters? And To Who? And Why?

She walks the wrong way down the shoreline
Past royal birds that shit off phone lines
They float away down city streets
First one by one then all at once in groups of three
She says the seagulls used to steal her chips
Take the clothes off her back and lick the food from her lips
I had only misread
I thought that the she said 

Feed them to the swans
They’ve been ravenous for days
These royal birds will kill to eat
When they’re locked inside their cage
These royal birds will only eat those who
Go against the state
These royal birds will only eat those who
Go against those things that I told you
And I

I keep my eyes fixed on His sun 
I find my mind’s been running away with me (get away from me)
I’ve felt the cold of the country, writing songs about birds
And I was thinking they liked me, until she said

Feed them to the swans
They’ve been ravenous for days
These royal birds will kill to eat
When they’re locked inside their cage
These royal birds will only eat those who
Go against the state
These royal birds will only eat those who
Go against those things that I told you

Have I been wasting my time on my  ideal of walden pond?
As I’m trapped inside I can never get lost
Some amateur ornithologist with it all figured out
When you watch their wings it keeps your eyes fixed on the clouds
Triangles to the south
I’m gonna get outta town
I’ll take the regional out

(I’ll take that thing to the end of the line)
Feed them to the swans
They’ve been ravenous for days
(keep my eyes on the clouds)
These royal birds will kill to eat
When they’re locked inside their cage
(I’ll take that thing to the end of the line)
These royal birds will only eat those who
Go against the state
(keep my eyes on the clouds)
These royal birds will only eat those who
Go against those things that I told you
