the story

the sea feels different now without you in it
the water gathering where you displaced it
entire pods of other whales migrating through the ocean,
speaking so many languages i could never learn them
so I'm left behind as they move on
and with each wave of love comes the curl of gripping doubt
so miles underneath she was traveling
she thought she'd never see the light again.
then she saw the thermal vents glowing in the darkness
she felt the warmth of the earth, to you it bears no likeness
love is so real if you don't need to learn to trust it
it's all around you you're a living island
this hum is my language

queen of diamonds

this plant is my friend
nine hearts with eleven
she was growing, she was growing
possum laughing
this hot planet
this dead planet
I hear you yet.
I'm my own solace, queen of diamonds
this wet planet
she is crying
can't stop crying
harder to breathe
eight spades,
ten clubs,
all the wreckage
perfect wreckage
possum laughing and laughing and laughing
laughing
laughing
laughing
I know I come across like I've lived a million lives
but still in solitude I wanna know that I was right.
my love is real and the mood brings me to song
better off alone I'm done feeling so strong
my love is strong, I feel I'm strong
I'm full of it now I'm laughing
I let love in again

the very sap

rain is healing huh. frogs are jumping by
I stop to let them by
tadpoles need advice
wash the past away,
the rain has come and gone
ah this road we're on
and I have to think that if the spirit path of time could contain all the other paths within it, we'd know eachother's pain, and walk along the same tree with the wood just rotting, growing backwards.
worms are surfacing
living under it
they're digesting it
(they're digesting it)
and chewing it
(chewing it)
yeah they're chewing it. I can wait for that
the soil is ripe. fed by our love underneath
is this the food that my trees have waited to taste
and love just turns to nutrients
be the fullest trees, with the thickest branches.
cover the shrubs in thy shade, synthesizing sugars by the light of the sun.
feed thyself thus.
I must.
so thine sap is warm and fruitful and red
crystallizing, your essence courses through limbs, fixing extremeties
and love carries on flowing sweetly.

another love affair with the one I feared the most.
The Truth is so patient. why does it always have to take it's time?
I tried learning growing, but I've already said goodbye
I know you meant no harm.
it feels like in my mind like I left it all behind, like I'm watching from afar, I've been burning too much wax

lorazepam
03:45
|
|||
|
why am I like this oh why can't I sleep?
I tell myself a lullaby
it might be the weed, it feels my brain broke
hope was the weed that took my garden; sprouting seedlings I'll never take a pill again,
but here I am with my lorazepam
my mind is sick from lorazepam
my body's sick from lorazepam
we're done writing your lorazepam
I never asked for lorazepam
I never asked for clonazepam
I never asked for gabapentin
I never asked for lorazepam.

it's like all the feelings of restlessness, and feverish romvnce had come to rest with my forehead on your neck
forehead on your neck
of reckless love I've had enough
reckless love I've had enough
I finally found my four of cups.
finally found my four of cups.
part of me never wanted to grow up,
didn't wanna accept that my friends just leave they get busy,
it's easy for me to feel abandoned
it's not your fault but you know this is.
a miraculous fruit emerges.

glowing
01:30
|
|||
|
he's in the ground he is miles deep, but I still hear him
after all it's a deep dive and my heart beholds the truth
energy runs through
his eyes are glowing too
my eyes are glowing too
she wished that he'd just stayed still, his body looks so used
bury him in hate
he surfaced from his grave
now your eyes are glowing too
your eyes are glowing too

she loses her earring
03:48
|
|||
|
where have you gone, worldly thing?
when you left I never had those memories
your crystal gem
(.......)
you turn up and it all comes back to me
when you turn up it all comes back to me, all the memories
await
awake
awaken
awaken
awake my pain
and the love
and the pain
all the energy in the place of thee

she cries up at the moon to get her up to speed
the pack is hunting out, so she and mom can sleep
but now the empress has to leave
i believe in u
i believe in u
she pushes her the scraps
urges her to eat

bodyguard

let me be your bodyguard
I wanna be the one that goes down when you get shot
gotta stay armed with all these militia flexing heavy here in keene, new hampshire
I'm just trying to stand in the way of the bullet
I'm done hoping we can talk it out anymore.
my friends don't think this is something to sleep on
reparations are definitely not something I can sleep on
it's kind of a waste if I just stay inside and make tunes all day
call me what I am, I'm an outlaw in this place
but I hope I never lose my sensitivity
hope I never lose my sensitivity.
let me be your bodyguard
