birth the right words
i need to ask:
"can someone take these hands away?"
it all ended where it started - in the heat of it all

time to peel away
but i don't want to
know what's behind
in a shroud of tape
that we'd have to carry
or be damned by
those cactus eyes
these lonely thoughts
with your face
in the cloth
time based on something
that is still harrowing
everyone
balaclava
shelter pigment under
in a panicked haze
we were sent outside
after they found
that shiny card
did i bring it or not?
we went inside
after they burned
and we went to sleep
these lonely thoughts
with my face
in the cloth
splitting the fabric
curtain that's harrowing
everyone
all these lonely thoughts
with your face
in the cloth
all these lonely thoughts
with my face inside the cloth
inside the mask

there's nothing gentle
about acting
like a gentleman
it isn't oh so pristine
hurting you
with my words and hands
isn't the meaning
of 'being a man'
i think we've both done
the best we can
so say 'goodbye'
when we lied down
you took off my mask and
it started to crack
it's far more fragile
than you'd think

okay
02:04
|

|
did i do it or not?
did i manufacture
all these things
in my thoughts
the sun will set
with my eyes
but it won't rise
with them too
somehow
i feel my hair going gray
somehow
i struggle acting my age
it's not okay
(speaking this way tonight)
somehow
i cannot sleep at night
somehow
i cannot open my eyes
it's not okay
(speaking this way tonight)
it's not okay
but i'll be alright
did i pave it or not?
or is this road i paved
just i work in progress
aging isn't a quarrel
it's far more
it's a massacre

it's the right time
i'm ready to go
it's the wrong time
i've got to go
go to the shows
every night
chop my head off
my head will roll
yeah - yeah yeah yeah
but you
just ask
the same old things like:
"where did you get that?"
"where did you get it?"
the story's so boring:
"i've got the old things here too"
"i've got the old things for you"
"where did you get that?"
"where did you get it?"
the story's so boring:
"i've got the old things here too"
"i've got the old things for you"
the story's so boring - but
get the good brews
and put on your shoes
i heard their vintage
well, good for you
now you're acting
like such a __________
hang with your friends
with better ideas
yeah
the story's so boring
but it's done

wring me out
as if i were filled
with something
and take these hands
and mold for me
take me out
like a part of a movie
or something
and take my heart
and bury me
you told me to "be myself"
but i wanna be everyone else
so you keep those hands
to yourself
you cannot push me around
i'll do that all by myself
you cannot figure this out
i'll do that all by myself
take me out
like a part of a movie
or something
and take my heart
and bury me
i started repeating myself
then said:
"i'm sorry for repeating myself"
so you know
what to expect

austerity lost
03:35

when i was younger
i lied in bed
under a blanket
my mother made
now under this blanket
it's you and i
our first time falling
in the chasm tonight
you can't stop looking at me
right in the eye
but i just want to stop myself
all i'm thinking is:
"oh no
the very first step in
growing old"
austerity lost
and unadorned
i've never seen
so much color before
after the fact
we lied in bed
then drove to a river
an hour away
i spoke so much you wished
that you were all by yourself
because being quiet's hard
when you're not by yourself
you told me that you wanted me
and nobody else
and that's when
i ran out of words
