LYRICS:
Pink hair straightener baby
Messy messy dresser in a dark room, empty
With the cord wrapped around the middle, cause you’re done with it
Space between the beeps when the oven’s pre-heated
I had a stainless steel dream
I was bubbles and the water and the hot hot steam
From the kettle that my mother bought for me
Rhythm of the stairs spaced out by landings
Buzzsaw head and some scrambling eggs
Bloated, metal, summer, planning, remembering
Like a shell inside another one
It’s ambient, it’s harmony
Skin inside a jacket
It’s internal drone infinity
I had a stainless steel dream

LYRICS:
Did you even ever really know me
Driving with your brake lights on
Holding up a bright red flag
Standing at the back of the bar, can you see, see me
Looking at the sun it’s way too high
Feels just like you see what you see
What happened
When I went
Falling off the wheel
What happened
Twisting in my dusty gut feeling
Prepping in my doomsday half-time skirt
Searching up your name in Capital Letters
Sitting in the back of the car, can you see, see me
Flashing pretty photos in my mind
Feels just like you see what you see
What happened
When I went
Falling off the wheel
What happened

LYRICS:
I wanna serve it up
Like a waiter in a restaurant
Delivery in a pick up truck
Is it ever enough
You said to me in the back of a movie
Silver City, my first part time job
Tell me where you think I oughta be
With this one body, and all it’s thinking
Take down all the posters from your head
You told me your arms don’t reach that far
And we were underneath
A fingernail half crescent
I was idling in front of self storage
And would you finally feel me
If I bit down into destiny
Of the faded green
In your blown out tattoo
Tell me where you think I oughta be
With this one body, and all it’s thinking
Cut my hair and then it grows right back
I came here alone and I’m headed out the exact same way

LYRICS:
Preparedness for transformation
Performance posthumous display
Of some grizzly bits of pigeon on the side of the highway
Everything’s bright gray
Can’t tell if it’s real, or just in the way
But I’m like the road bird
Head curled in, dead, from all it’s thinking
But it’s the best I did it
It’s the best I did it
It’s the best I did it
It’s the best I did it
Ask me questions while you’re out shopping for a brand new life
Tell me what I deserve
I’m just out here to try my medicine
But it’s the best I did it
It’s the best I did it
It’s the best I did it
It’s the best I did it
It’s the best I did it
Talk about something good
Talk about something good
Talk about something good

LYRICS:
Feel it in my head again
Think I’ve lost my head again
Cause I witnessed it
And I don’t want to
It’s a firetrap
Everybody wants to be a diplomat
I’m not in danger but I wanna run away from here
Daylight reckoning
I don’t have the vision for the shit I read
I’m not a soldier and I gotta get away from here
Feel it in my head again
Think I’ve lost my head again
And I can’t fix it
If I don’t want to
It’s a firetrap
Everybody wants to be a diplomat
I’m not in danger but I wanna run away from here
Daylight sickening
I don’t have the stomach for the shit I’ve seen
I’m not a soldier and I gotta get away from here

LYRICS:
Big shadow on the wall
It looks like me but small
Glitter on a page
An old drawing of some snakes
They’re intertwining
So neat and tidy
Like my therapy, in a wooden box
Just give me rivers and taco bell
Don’t get me started up I know I’ll just say nothing
Getting rid of most of it, at least I’m left with something
24 months goes by so fast
Say sorry to the plants that died above my head
I forgot who I bought them with
But I’m not much of a botanist
I saw you at the back theater
You threw something red
I forgot what it had said
Don’t get me started up I know I’ll just say something
Packing up the car with all the things you deemed important
Nevermind I’ll be right here
Looking out, at the car heading out

LYRICS:
Lately I’ve been looking through mud
Standing where I’ve always been
Then you sent me a little message in blue
And it said what’s up
And the mud
It cleared right up, too
Making a plan is harder than it looks
I hold out rocks for you to take a look at them
I like to think of everyone’s names
Floating and written above their heads
I’ll meet you in the middle seat
Your cupboards are full of plates from the 24hr place
You told me things you told nobody else
A U Haul passes with some facts about an orchid
In the RBC ATM line, I think of you and sterile minerals
In the water and outside the apartment you share with all your furniture
Dinner in a can and a hotel laptop screen reflected by another one
Grid of a shopping cart, intersection welds, try to touch it
Little caesars to go cup
Sunwashed plastic garbage bin, blue now from the cornflower sun
Handles like madonna’s nails, picking zits in home depot, and the tread in your shoes
You’re a fast tripper
Petition on a rusted lamp, soft chorus of cellos
blocks out trucks with black out windows
Rabbits Looking
Familiar Lysol smell of a scrubbed business
Take my money, and mean it, high vis biker in an old halloween mask
Shoulder to shoulder, resting SUVs
I walk home from the movies
Cause I don’t have a car anymore
At 29
I feel sick
But I’m just getting started my medicine
And the lady in blue platform sandals
Cracks the foam and her heels to match
Takes a hose from the side of the house and waters her square inch of soil at 10:22
From sod to seed, Loveday Mushroom
I’ve been texting
I’ve been texting
I’ve been texting
I’ve been texting

LYRICS:
Watching a planet
Grow and erode at the back of my mind
Hurry Up, Hurry Up, Hurry Up
I’ve still got a lot to look at
Deep in the pattern, pattern
I saw the design
I’ve been a side sleeper my whole life
There is a reason I’ve been looking like a little kid
Remember the drawing you made of me, it looks like you too
Remember the drawing you made of me, it looks like you too
I’ve been stressed outside, before
There is a reason I’ve been looking like a little Kid
You know you show me how
I’ve been searching for a while now
You know you show me how
Searching, Looking, Now

LYRICS:
I want to know, what you’re like alone
I want to know, what you’re like alone
Heard it on the empty radio
Felt it on the outside wall of your show
Had another question but you already know
Half a can inside my hand, I watch it go

LYRICS:
Things will remain and I will not
Desperate collage of ice blocks
Pushing up against some rocks
Things will remain and I will not
Desperate collage of ice blocks
Pushing up against some rocks
Almost didn’t take a photo
But I’m happy that I did
Cause it melted all around me
When I crossed across the bridge
Almost didn’t take a photo
But I’m happy that I did
When you asked me all about it
When I got home from it
Things will remain and I will not
Desperate collage of ice blocks
Pushing up against some rocks
Pregnant and thick
Wide with consciousness
Rivers flowing all around us
And we’re thankful for them
