I find my senses in need
The neglect takes my knees
And I’m trembling
You soon shook my feet
The last free part of me
And it’s tiring
Now I find myself stuck between fucked and out of luck
My head is spun, out of reach
My limbs are numb
My thoughts reel and then disappear
Then I’m done
I stoke a fire in me that’s been out all week
And I’m embering
Lost my way and I felt weak just from remembering...
The passing of nights
The promise that you might, sometime, just remind me that we’ll find the means to rewind to a past that saw us good
Unlike the times that we never withstood
Now I find myself stuck between fucked and out of luck
My head is spun, out of reach
My limbs are numb
My thoughts reel and then disappear
My wounds heal and the reappear
Then I’m done

Sleep Marching

Call it sleep marching
Call it what you please
See me good in Winter
See me good in Spring
Try to take on sense for once
Try to settle down
Curve your body my way
And my face into a frown
We can consecrate our days
So ceremonial
Put meaning to apophenia and find joy in the dull moments in the period between our birth and death
Build from our love a pyre
And make sure there’s nothing left at the end
Call it sleep marching
Call it love and thunder
See me good in Autumn
See me good in Summer
Try to sleep the time away
Try to get off at all
Though I sleep better these days
It wasn’t like this before
We can consecrate our days
So ceremonial
Put meaning to apophenia and find joy in the dull moments in the period between our birth and death
Build from our love a pyre
And make sure there’s nothing left at the end

It's Late & I'm Tired
01:10

I heard that you’re not far tonight
I could easily take that bike ride but it’s far too far in too short a time
I’ll stay home
It’s late and I’m tired
I still wonder where you are sometimes
I didn’t wish you well, I cant, but I might just find it in myself to smile at you next time
Though probably not
It’s late and I’m tired

When you’re 28 and you’ve got loose teeth and bloody gums you know that something’s up
When the house looks burnt out but the lights are on you know that something’s wrong
There was something in you from the start
More asteroid than star
Always fleeting
There was something in me from the start
Born to be alone / apart
Never a destination
Nor a point to meeting
When I’m 29 will I have left my past behind
Is the season the reason I feel low or will I find
That there was something in me from the start
More asteroid than star
Always fleeting
Because there was something in you from the start
Born to be alone / apart
Never a destination
Nor a point to meeting

New Ends

We stayed there by the bottom step mourning all that we had left
Crying and screaming and hardly believing that this is how it was meant to end
From when I lived alone
Bodies intertwined where no one could know
We weren’t done, still in love, days were fun there was little that we couldn’t have done
Until we didn’t anymore
Until the lights went out underneath the door
It takes time, I get, to understand
We didn’t always have that I guess
But it’s true, that there’s just no getting through to you
