the air is dead
we’re all back to being sad about it
i’d forgotten the smell
but i knew it then and i know it now
hot tub water
rubbing my hands together
and we’re gonna be sad
then we’re gonna be happy again after
when the sun hits
you remember how orange everything gets
when your teeth grit
you’re reminded that you know everything ends
on a night walk
like the one that i took late last fall
and i thought here i’d feel it
but i don’t at all
like a bike ride
past the lilacs in the may twilight
when the world was ending
different ways and years but still the same time
and your favourite album’s playing
from a different time it’s waving
and i'm reaching back and taking
whatever i can for saving
it’s a ruin of what i once felt
it’s a flash card for something else
it’s a wheel on your dad’s first car
it’s a repeat when you’re pulling a card
it’s a tunnel filled in again
it’s a puddle showing your reflection
it’s a dream waking you up at night
it’s a photo of when you were nine
it’s your breath showing like a vision
it’s the water evaporating in sun
it’s the cycle of baby rabbits
they don’t learn from their own habits

back & forth
03:14

elastic twisted on my thumb
back and forth back and forth till it’s numb
and i said nothing
turn on the water over and over
and every time i get a little bit older
and i’ve still said nothing
my hair grew down down down
it brushes my chin
yours is gone gone gone
and i’ve said nothing
i’m trying to keep the temple of us
untouched in my mind
i see it in a way i never did
but i leave it
i’m trying to keep the temple of us
untouched in my mind
i leave it abandoned but still standing
where it is
crush a berry in my fingertips
and the juice drip drip drip drips
haven’t gone back to sit on those steps
that i used to
back and forth back and forth and over again
maybe you don’t need to be my friend
down down drip drip and back and forth
you owe me but maybe i owe you more
i’m trying to keep the temple of us
untouched in my mind
i see it in a way i never did
but i leave it
i’m trying to keep the temple of us
untouched in my mind
i leave it abandoned but still standing
where it is
back and forth back and forth and over again
maybe you don’t need to be my friend
down down drip drip and back and forth
you owe me but maybe i owe you more

rolling down the hill
02:37
|
|||
|
watching my reflection in the big church window
and the sun is always setting so i always take a photo
now i’m rolling something down grasshopper hill
and it never stops rolling
it just never stops
and i’ve been getting up
getting drunk
meeting up at the neighbourhood spot
and it never stops
it just never stops
waking up to the sound of a radio host
telling the story of a kid who went missing in toronto
and every day i sleep through the beginning
hanging around to see
houses get torn down and built again lately
practically swimming in suburban ennui
an endless sprinkler flowing endlessly
please be quiet the trees are growing
and the cars are running over them ‘cause they’re never slowing
my shirt is always sticking to me ‘cause it’s always so hot
and something’s rolling down the hill and it
never stops

hole in a tree

hole in a tree
killed my old hate maybe he can see me
in the hospital parking lot
at sunset again
may the 8th
wait at home i’m running late
we got nothing post-mortem
and now the funeral’s delayed
every night oh
every night
i go digging in the same spot
every night oh
every night
dig till i find something i don’t want
way back then
did it too fast and i reached the end
these days i don’t say
how i'm ashamed my mind is blank
it’s a curse
everyone said it would be ten times worse
lost you and the comfort too
of grieving as rehearsed
every night oh
every night
i go digging in the same spot
every night oh
every night
dig till i find something i don’t want
holding back
street lamp
frosted glass
night ride
late walk
i'm mad but I’m not
cat tails
sky after rain
flowers on the driveway
i get sad thinking how i’m not
every night oh
every night
i go digging in the same spot
every night oh
every night
dig till i find something i don’t want

there’s a really long jump rope with you at the end
i'm always missing the beat it’s always hitting my leg
but if i follow it back
at least it’s still in your hand
i did not believe it then but
you were right about everything
the mittens and the crows
and how it all would go
there’s a braid in my hair but it’s not me at the end
i did it myself it was borne of my hand
but if I follow it back
there’s someone else attached
i can say it easily
when you’re sitting right in front of me
when I’m focusing my mind
and not any other time
there are two of me
there are two of you too
there are two of me
there are two of you too
there are two of me and the other one is trying to
find the other one of you
two of me
two of you
two of me
two of you
