Did we ever get it figured out?
Still sifting
Through the hopeless doubt
Salubrious memories
Infecting me
With what I can’t be
So don’t bury me
Beneath Box Springs
Underneath the “C”
Maybe we should take my car into the mountains
Swerve off a curve
I’m self aware
So I could really use the air
I keep tying myself up
With these seraphic melodies
I’ll bring the GameCube
You bring the Tv
We can set it up
Next to your porch swing
And play the whole way through
I hate the scary parts
So I’ll hand it off to you
And play the whole way through
I’ll hand it off to you
Maybe we should take my car into the mountains
Swerve off a curve
I’m self aware
So I could really use the air
I hate that I still think back
To the river
Intransigent memories
Of throwing pennies off of parking lots
Sat in the back seat
Shivering with me
A hazy mind
Forgets the worst
Of where I’ve been
And who I am
Reflection of adolescent recklessness
It’s who I am
Maybe we should take my car into the mountains
Swerve off a curve
I’m self aware
So I could really use the air
It’s who I am

Hey, I’d wait forever if you say
Standing in the doorway
Never leave my head anyway
Fingers locked and interlaced
My home inside the fray
Head above the water
If it can it will get harder
Stuck talking in my sleep
Take it all back
Let the past be in the past
I’m just hoping that you’ll stay
But I’m just a mess
I am lost in between
The lines in the sand
That I drew in front of me
The endless refrain
We undress
To shift from the pain
And take it all away
You take it all away
Head above the water
If it can it will get harder
Stuck talking in my sleep
Take it all back
Let the past be in the past
I’m just hoping that you’ll stay
I’ll sit quietly
Sink into the seat
Tapping my foot
As I hear you sing
You are everything I want to see inside myself
Picture of your smile
Mounted on my shelf
Give and take the emptiness
And leave me in your brain
You are the distant summer
The smell after the rain
Crowned your head in flowers
And held you in my arms
Never thought I’d live forever
To think I’d get this far
Head above the water
If it can it will get harder
Stuck talking in my sleep
Take it all back
Let the past be in the past
I’m just hoping that you’ll stay

I can’t stand the painted glass
Realized in wreckage
It was only me staring back
We were just broken kids,
Breaking things,
That looked like we did
anger comes in like a flood
Swept us up swept us up
Make the best of it
Swept us up
I saw the bruises lining up your back
You never even said a word
hung like an anchor from your chest
laughed it off to hide the tears
We were just broken kids,
Breaking things,
That looked like we did
anger comes in like a flood
Swept us up swept us up
Make the best of it
Swept us up
I remember the stare
held under coming up for air
You turned to me to do the same
Hide away beneath the smile
The long way home
Chlorine eyes
Our new excuse
We were just broken kids,
Breaking things,
That looked like we did
anger comes in like a flood
Swept us up swept us up
Make the best of it
Swept us up

I’m trying to figure out
What it was you were talking about
In between
Pushing your couch
Down the stairs
Forget it man
just leave it there
I ripped my shirt off
Climbing over the fence
And you gave me yours to wear instead
And I hate
The reverb in your heart
The echos always tearing the ones you love apart
Grind your teeth while you sleep in bed
Constant metronome ticking inside my head
I keep chasing towards the beat
But I drag instead,
And feel the dissonance ring out
Until I'm dead
I want to hold the warmth that
spills out from your face
Swallow it whole to fill what
You’ve misplaced
Riddled with holes, you seep out and stagnate
So spread the spores that cling to your decay
I’m trying to figure out
What it was you were talking about
At Castleview creek
Fell into the water
And then you jumped in after me
I covered up the hole with tape
Against the backyard fence
You made me stay
Out of the side lines
We’re all just wasting time
Out of the side lines
We’re all just flawed by design
Grind your teeth while you sleep in bed
Constant metronome ticking inside my head
I keep chasing towards the beat
But I drag instead,
And feel the dissonance ring out
Until I'm dead
I want to hold the warmth that
spills out from your face
Swallow it whole to fill what
You’ve misplaced
Riddled with holes, you seep out and stagnate
So spread the spores that cling to your decay
I’m trying to figure out
What it was you were talking about

Hope turns your head, the air is warm
Someone’s missing from the rocking chair on the front porch
So hide on the swingset in the backyard
With no one pushing from behind you know you won’t go too far
Start taking two steps back
Toss a paper note between the open glass
Well maybe if he was around
You’d be sleeping in the living room on the ground
Break your bones to fit a mold
Crafted by who you still hold
In your heart
And on your mind
Complacent
So you don’t leave the ghosts behind
Sew your skin up like a quilt
Keeping warm under the guilt
There’s nothing more you could have changed
It’s not your fault
But that’s just the way it goes
Pick out belongings you’ll be leaving soon
So turn away from white flowers and balloons
And the bed is still stained with the scent of life
Looking forward to tomorrow leave this all behind
And your breath is stale just like his last
When you exhale it all comes back
Flooding memories that hold you down
And there won’t be another since he is not around
Break your bones to fit a mold
Crafted by who you still hold
In your heart
And on your mind
Complacent
So you don’t leave the ghosts behind
Sew your skin up like a quilt
Keeping warm under the guilt
There’s nothing more you could have changed
It’s not your fault
But that’s just the way it goes
It’s not your fault
It’s not your fault
That’s just the way it goes

tiny plastic trophy

You are the stained glass window reflecting light
To drown inside your colors you know I might
So maybe we could meticulously
Feel the blithe within our company
Count me in
a life with you around
stay in my head
lost and now we’re found
Count me in
a life with you around
stay in my head
lost and now we’re found
Hung with the plastic trophy
Above the fireplace
6 years annoyed
a smile on your face
All talk like someone
Who hasn’t got it wrong
So stand up tall
Our pulse behind the the wall
