Late Last Night

Time got the best of me late last night
While my eyelids lay resting on my open eyes
Intuition sinks deep into my skin
While I lay painfully awake
If empathy could just send some regards
Then maybe she would put me in my place
Cause all this talking only leaves me tired
I can’t settle down with so much left to say
Lights shook the life out of my ego last night
I could see every contortion in my face
I made a mask to fix the problem solve the case
But the thickness of disguise just left me fake
If someone please could just put me back up
On my feet until the cold just goes away
Cause this whole season leaves me brittle and weak
And it feels just like the years come in waves
Time got the best of me late last night
While my eyelids lay resting on my open eyes
Intuition sinks deep into my skin
While I lay painfully awake
If someone please could just put me back up
On my feet until the cold just goes away
Cause this whole season leaves me brittle and weak
And it feels just like the years come in waves

Oh god it’s enough to make my heart stop
Summer beats just got me in a headlock
Apologize for your grenadine eyes
And caramel lips always on my mind but
Thanksgiving’s got me singing the blues
And algorithmic lyrics for my ballad to you
I’ve sung this line in my mind
And suddenly it’s not worth my time
And I can safely say that this will be my last
Recollection to purgatory
I’ve seen things darling things have seen me
But who said something obscene
Could see me do something like that
And I get away with the consequences
Oh god it’s enough to make my heart stop
Summer beats just got me in a headlock
Apologize for your grenadine eyes
And caramel lips always on my mind but
Thanksgiving’s got me singing the blues
And algorithmic lyrics for my ballad to you
I’ve sung this line in my mind
And suddenly it’s not worth my time
Do you think that this is too much
Who said you were calling the shots
Do you think that this is breaking down
Who said you had anything better to do with your time

Melancholy Thump

When you lay your head down
Do you close your eyes
Do they close themselves
Do they blink against the sun
Or stare up wary at the clouds
When you lay your head down
Do you think of life
Or do you think of hell
Do you sit up on the grass
Or do you sink into the ground
When everyone is in town
Do you end your night
Are you going out
Does is make you nervous
So overwhelmed you forget to call
When everyone is in town
Are you on the road or in the couch
Is it worth the voicemail or word of mouth
That you cared at all
Time is twisting
In the bigger frame of things
But watching it unwind is just like
Finding all the reasons not to try
And I’ve been listing every single reason
But most are lies
When the bad news finds your door
Do you stand in shock or hit the floor
Do you question what you’re happy for
And shed tears into a jar
When the bad news finds your door
Does your mouth hang wide and leave you sore
Do you think of loss and wait for more
And wipe away the scar
Yeah time is twisting
In the vaguer frame of things
And walking on that line is as divine
As blindly knowing what is sure
If you're resisting
Then maybe you forgot just what it's worth
When the scythe comes which it will
Will you wait out on the windowsill
Will you board your doors and cry
Until your memories all fade
When the scythe comes which it will
With open arms accept the thrill
Or red alarms like a fire drill
Will you battle at the gates
Are you unwinding
As surely as the tidal waves
And if you’re trying
Then maybe it’s too soon to find that place

Battle Cry

Dam up the river
Stall out the car
Drink if you remember yourself at all
Trees in the forest
Stand in heavy numbers
No axe or flame could ever find a part
Love it ruled your castle
Surpassed it only sky
And you fought a lonely battle
But I never heard a battle cry
Steep to the gates
Slam an open door
And I still listen
I still listen
For your voice on the shore
In a way you caught the starlight
With the same opened up sky eyes
And I'm still looking
I'm still looking
To see yours in mine
So who assumes position
To choose what you’d have done
Who knows why glowing flowers face the sun
Love it ruled your castle
Surpassed it only sky
And you fought a lonely battle
But I never heard a battle cry

All Good Things

I’ve said too many goodbyes
Too little to to compare
For anyone who’s lost more to empathize
And with every hello old friend
How have you been
It’s a little less genuine I swear
Because only some faces stay the same in my head
Timeless yet aging while others will blend
But the memory of this remains fresh on the slate
Though I’m wiping it clean every day
For better or for worse I can’t forget what we said
That the times of our lives were the seconds we spent
Filling the silence with words like loose thread
Stitching the pieces
Folding over and over and over and over
And it’s not all the places inside of my head
It’s the words and the faces I’ll remember instead
And I’ll never start over
Never feel this again
Cause looking over my shoulders
Only taught me that good things must end
Saying words that mean nothing is a talent I have
I’ll tell you just what you wanna hear
It’s only when there’s something my hands cannot grasp
My coiled spine breaks from its cast
So if I never said thank you for the parts of me
That never would have been without you having my back
It’s only because I know how you react
No this wasn’t nothing
You were all that I had
So I’m not saying goodbye
No not quite just yet
To someone who means more than the rest
A good thing we had going
To be honest my friend
I’ll love you far after all goods things must end
