Blue

i've been drying out
in this sacred house
my skin turning blue
as i watch the two of you
turning inside out
words fall out like heavy clouds
raining down on you
i've been painted blue
i picked the flowers from up the street
i hoped that they'd remind you of me
i like the way you swallow the breeze
i heave in and out, fall to my knees
i went away, i saw the sea
i went away, i saw the sea

Mirror
01:41
|
|||
|
the wall is covered in paper
the paper's full of so many things
so many things are very pretty
the pretty things look back at me
you have a heart, i have a hammer
you have a blanket to cover me
i am the coldest one of us,
you are the hardest one to see
without your body on the ground,
without both feet on the floor,
how grounded do you think you are?
how is it that you could even tell?
and when you look into the mirror,
what is it that you wanna see?
self portrait of your mother,
that is all that you'll ever be

Heavy home
02:48
|
|||
|
quiet days alone
unmade bed, cold rain window
lay around my heavy home
quick and dead, wanting something
am i a liar or am i just scared?
blue-eyed seeker, warm neck lover
tangled up with versions of me
talking sweetly about nothing
quiet swollen parts of me
that think this has any meaning
am i a liar or am i just scared?
said you'll be here in ten, so i'll at least make my bed

Sunlight
01:24
|
|||
|
sunlight shining right in my eyes and i can't see anything,
i don't know anything
lift my face up to the sky
this is the realest thing, breathing in healing
look at the fragile state we're in
tipping point, a baby bird
a holy moment, heavy with the weight we're giving it
was it even there?
or was it floating in the periphery?
was it even there?
made of wanting, a dreamed up thing

Moonlight
02:58
|
|||
|
gone too far
open a window
i'm trying hard
to keep myself composed
gone too far
where's the line drawn?
stepping outside,
face the night sky
i was a fool,
sizing up the moon
i loved you,
image in the pool
in dreams i thought i saw it,
what it is i needed
i reached out to touch it
i reached out
cool, dark, water
something
woke up to moonlight rippling through my empty room
my empty room

Sleepwalking
03:40
|
|||
|
walking around in my sleep
how can i find my way home?
wondering out on the street
streetlight looking like flickering candlelight
walking around in a dream
people pass by me, i don't look up
where am i, how have i been?
feeling a weight too heavy
how did we fall apart?
were we in pieces from the star?
i've been trying my best to make peace with how the world ends and my past mistakes but sometimes they get too loud and i cannot help but fall into the deepest state of helplessness and feeling like i can't escape what we've become and if i fall it's all undone i've been thinking about death and how it is that we are here and if could id fall asleep and never look upon your face
