bulk heads
break than bend
forget to make amends

now its lasting too long
and i will never feel that way again
it was
and im ok with it but it still makes me cry
bulk heads
break than bend

Coyote
03:35
|
|||
it's a couple years from now
and i'm having my spleen ripped out
coyote den mother is watching as her babies feed
teethe babies teethe
just leave some for mommy
i figure the best way to contribute to nature is to bleed
and o, it hurts
but i'm happy to have a purpose
and o, it hurts
but i'm happy to at least be something
it's a couple years from now
Dec. 2019
snow it on the ground
and everything looks cherry slushie
the coyotes are gone
my breathing slows down
finally i realize what it means to be alive
thank you Mother Earth
for giving this useless un pure body some worth
thank you mother earth i couldn't be any happier

Leave Land (shore)
02:21
|
|||
i don't want the land no more
i put my life jacket on and leave the shore
i don't need the land any more
i head out to sea and leave the shore
i don't need the land
i leave the shore

Water Spider
03:28
|
|||
i walked into the shower
with a water spider
they said not to worry
let me show you something
when they dug their fangs into
my outside organs
the blood trickled down
and i saw something
there's finger prints in my blood
there's finger prints in my blood
don't know how they got there but i'm pretty sure they're yours
your fingers prints are in my blood
*conversation between me and water spider*
there's finger prints in my blood
not sure how they got there but i'm pretty sure they're yours
there's finger prints in my blood
not sure how they got there but i'm pretty sure they're yours

Groundhog (day)
01:29
|
|||
broken
and painted
power
outlets
candle
wax and
little
trinkets
driving you alone and theres nothing that i can say to comfort you
its so quiet in this car that i can hear the tires throw the pebbles
i roll down the window for fear that im breathing too loud
no ones in the back but i can feel eyes on my neck
groundhog went back

Ali (car)
02:52
|
|||
watch the tiny cars go by
they have their jobs they have their lives
but i wish they'd bring my friends into town
stick your thumb out more like this, i wish my car didn't break down but it now we gotta deal with it
i really wish that i could say
i can get you home sound and safe
but i cant right now
stick your thumb out more like this, theres gotta be a friendly car that wants to pick you up
watch the tiny road
watch the little cars
go one by one
each after each other
watch the old houses
shift by the wind blow
each leaning on each other, depending on the others
old bones
you can leave if you want
but i need to stay with my car
and i kind of enjoy the feeling
of being stranded
i didn't wish for my car
to break down but it did
and now
i gotta deal with it

stumbling into Dec.
02:21
|
|||
i've never had a good Nov.
ever since i've been alive
and although im still awake
i feel as though i've never survived (one before)
but i still stumble into Dec.
where the air is so much harsher
something feels right within the snow
something about New England grieving together gives me hope
i've never had a good Nov.
ever since i've been alive
and although i'm still awake
i've never survived (one before)
still i stumble into Dec.
where i hope things will be better

most bones
never see the sunlight
unless they're unlucky enough
all bones
have to break or snap
to be loved
or acknowledged
you're like a little tiny femur
hard to break
but not impossible
your bones
are branches to a tree
roots in the dirt
rocks and leaves
bones are under skin
roots are in the ground
your bones
are branches to a tree
roots in the dirt
rocks and leaves
you're like a little tiny femur
hard to snap
but not impossible
most bones
never see the sunlight
unless they're unlucky enough
bones are under skin
roots are in the ground

cherry
01:14
|
|||
cherry tomato breath
breathing down my neck
lips tasting of liquor
what'd i tell ya about your liver
you've touched parts of me i cant ignore
i would show you but i know that you hate gore
i've touched parts of you you can't ignore
you would show me but you know we are no more

i'm petrified

i'm not talking
i am coughing
for now on

a wall a wall a wall
02:24
|
|||
i've hit a wall a wall a wall
i was too distracted by the rain fall
and how each brake light
reflects off the street
i looked over behind my seat
to see a man laughing hysterically
although he also couldn't see
he kept on at full speed
until his car met the seat
i've hit a wall a wall a wall
but you were in my passenger and that's when you said to me at least you're not that man going full speed into the sea
i've hit a wall a wall a wall
and you said
you cant turn back
this street only goes one way
you cant break the wall down
but you can go around the bend
and try to avoid it next time
just hope you're lucky
