arrange the waterdrops

I would lead you to the desert and then
arrange the waterdrops, a map on your skin
and then I'll turn you on your heels
and leave you to your monologue
felt nausea as I unfurled my eyes
when the morning came to steal my night
your thoughts are waddling around city blocks
peeking into windows
and you lied right through your pint-sized teeth
as you held me hand
trampled hispanic paper flowers as I entered the room
meadow larks for the taking
spiders and snakes on the flume
I never found the appropriate phrases
for how I felt about you
I've never wanted to tear you apart
but I'm sure it would be easy to do
I can't stop shaking, I can't stop shaking
I'm sure this must sound like a lie
but I refuse to believe in the darkness of your room
I've never entered your mind
please never say this hasn't weighed on your mind

rain
cystic alarm headed south
larva harvest
alienated old cow
I feel secure like a needle and thread
while provoking a witness
I'll stay in my bed
I could go to sleep instead
grey
I am a father again
daisy blooming
wish I could know where you've been
accepting donations from factory house bums
while provoking a witness
I tap on the drum of a magna carta man
who's been making demands

all the best lies
01:27
|

I've been holding on to your sweater
and the memories it brings
I've kept your new address in my pocket
along with a number of things
I've written metaphors and similes too
I've practiced all the best lies
I've deconstructed every ghost of the truth
which I'll tell you is that I wanted to die
You'll go to sleep
I'll stay awake
that's how this goes, I know, I know
but I don't have to like it
I don't have to like it
I don't have to like a goddamn thing anymore
