First Breath Back
03:52
|

on the cusp of unraveling
am i hiding
or do i need to be under this decaying tree
tugging my heels
return to the warm, the safety dragging myself through the current
you keep me still

Prism of Feeling
04:45
|

if you gave me your arms
could i hold me the way you do
the way you do
replicate the pressure of your hands on my skin
remake the imprint
‘cause it stays
wanna know how it feels too
i rip my body so
so i can know
the feeling you felt when you told me i’m gone in a way
you’ll find me again
filtered through a heavy heart
words can’t match the look on my face
i try to be clear & careful
but the real feelings slip like the light between the blinds the corners of my mouth betray me
i rip my body so
so i can know
the feeling you felt when you told me i’m gone in a way
you’ll find me again
am i misinterpreting the light you spill in me

there’s a door and it opens just for you there’s an open window i fall through can you fall right into me
can i fall in too

Cloudless
03:53
|
|||
i’m just threads on the tile
remnants of them, their dreams grasping onto your features i see in me the features i’ve chosen to be
it’s clear, it’s gray
winds distort the shape
once laced together in my head
but the void is still saved for you
even if our eyes never quite meet again your words don’t have spines
i can’t beam the way you want me to
it’s clear, it’s gray
winds distort the shape
once laced together in my head
i’m here
closed shades
dream of your cloudless face keep your blue sky in my head

peel me from your arm
you are the whispers left on my skin
keep you there as long as i can
wander the empty rooms behind my ribs trace the outline
with the petals you found on your way home
left on my skin
keep you there as long as i can

Burden of Desire
02:43

the violet skyline
never close enough
edges undefined
silhouettes etched in my mind
you are golden amber
sifting through the pine needles
hums stirring in the stillness resting in my lap

Memory / Fantasy
03:15
|

folding like the clothes on your body changing colors like the blood running from your knuckles
i love the smell of your soap
i love the space that you leave when you go the creases in the blankets remind me
that you were there at all
folding like my fingers into your palm changing your opinion
before the sun turns around the clock
i love the smell of your soap
but i close my eyes when you go do you think i’m selfish
‘cause i don’t wanna be alone
does it make you feel good does it make you feel at all
i love the smell of your soap
but i close my eyes when you go
the creases in the blankets remind me that you were there at all

Strawberry Cool

bridge barbed with wire
so i surrender my deathwish
the next option: the tracks
but i can’t stand to cause an inconvenience only focusing on the thing that’s missing
it’s only lonely here where i linger
my dreams always seem concerned with your well-being i can’t seem to shake
maybe one day we’ll learn to grow separately
maybe one day i’ll grow on my own
maybe one day this piece of you inside me
will grow in a way that leaves me
unobscured & determined & filled with heaven again
it’s only lonely here where i linger
it’s only lonely
if you don’t move past me
why are my hands so cold
i can’t feel a thing
see it crawl from my bones
like a thing i didn’t want
keep it close to my soul in case i forget what it felt like to get out of my way
to get out of my own way

A Brighter Summer Day
03:36
|
|||
can’t tell when i lost track of my steady breathing crush the memory
to regain control
saw you and i felt nothing inside knew you could go in any direction saw you and i felt nothing inside knew you could go in any direction
lying still
staring upwards spinning outwards as i bend away
if i asked you where we left off would it feel right
would it change a thing
adoring murmur held far too long ring, trail, and fade the edges of
saw you and i felt nothing inside knew you could go in any direction saw you and i felt nothing inside knew you could go in any direction

Love Being
04:17
|
|||
afraid to start
scared of it ending
stricken by the thought of you
my face, lips, skin
dissolving in your memory remind me of what’s left here
this lasting minute
your floating body
i am a moment,
a breeze, and a whisper
my face, lips, skin
dissolving in your memory remind me of what’s left here

End & Affection
04:06
|
|||
feel your body close to me fingers almost intertwining
i know love can live in my body
feel your body close to me you pull away
can you feel the way i hate me
beautiful picture
flowers blooming in your rearview
when will the sun shine on my reflection
