Fresh out,
feeling better in doubt.
I’m impatient,
with all this misread information.
I lost my steps,
no rhythm to…
I lost my steps,
no rhythm to dance around these truths.
No coming back, there’s no coming back for you.
And you thought the scars would stretch
but they’re just like all the rest
And you thought scars would stretch.
And I’m strapped in the cracks of this straitjacket city, yeah
It’s holding me back, and I can’t get free from it.
Can’t get free from it, Can’t get free from it
Can’t get free from it, Can’t get free.
It’s holding me back and I can’t get free from it
Inducing these introductions,
A shrine for your convenience
There’s no currency in these conversations.

Twentynine Palms

I bet you thought you could draw up a route,
plot all the points, and map your way out, again.
Stay so still, I said I’d find a way back to you,
the sedatives stole every clue…
Swallow another mask, wont face my fears.
I’m losing color as we fade, not seeing clear.
And it never feels the same, no place for the blame.
And it never disappears…
Don’t think too deep if your mind wont swim.
I crossed a desert to catch some calm
only caught more heat to burn you down
I said “I won’t go to Cali without you again!”
flying on down Twentynine Palms…
Swallow another mask, deface my, deface my…
Shaft to my hub, pin to my barrel
You shot away, your life with me
You shot away, your life with me...

It’s clear and consistent
these sunrises bring no serotonin.
And casino lights through
these windows at night
It’s all that’s bright
when you live this low.
Pulled each foot from the fields
hit the banks, and lost control.
Seeing you in my dreams
makes waking up a nightmare
in this riverbed alone, all alone.
All alone.
I burnt every bridge you could take from me,
thought you’d drown below but you’re too shallow.
I was going with the flow,
but I must’ve washed away,
watch me wash away.
I was going with the flow,
but I must’ve washed away,
watch me wash away.

Pleasure to Burn

Whisper when you will
I’ve heard it all along
expected less but got much more.
You’re invited to my chest where,
you’ll stay and burn,
you’ll burn, alone.
I can’t resign myself
to host this transaction,
adnd our time won’t run out
as fast as you’ll turn your back and walk away…
stay!
I’ve come to grips, I’ve to grips with letting go
letting go of you!
Blind, face first, no wings, won’t reach the ledge,
The only way I know.
I can’t resign myself, don’t make me.
Don’t make me
There is no way, there is no way,
there is no way, no, no!
Take what you said and go
Blind, face first, no wings, won’t reach the ledge,
The only way I know.
I can’t resign myself, don’t make me.
Don’t make me, Stay!
Leave your knives in my back
when you crawl from my bed.
Up my downers, I’ll never sleep,
I’ll never sleep well again!

Effervescent

It’s been dark down here for far too long
I can barely speak an honest word
Is it all a cry for help?
Are you just being, are you just being yourself?
Rise up. Rise.
When gravity forgets your name
and you start to float away,
no one will hear you say
anything.
Those teeth marks in your tongue
show you waited every inch, every inch of too long
This fast life will be the slowest death of me.

Sitting tight at the bar to loosen up your tongue.
These glasses of empty thoughts keep on filling up.
You got some eyes on you tonight,
they dilate in the tired light.
You’ve been better, I just can’t remember when.
Sneak away and step out of it,
caught up with a comatose confidence.
Sneak away and step out of it,
open secrets accent your absence.
The book is long, and it’s coming undone,
The book is long, will we end on the same page?
I’m not wrapped around your finger,
You know I’m just strung out.
Born and raised in this broken down town,
looking for a fix but that’s all you’ve found.
Now you’re high and dry, coming down with the rain
Why’s it cost so much to live this free?
Sneak away and step out of it,
caught up with a comatose confidence.
Sneak away and step out of it,
open secrets accent your absence.
The book is long, and it’s coming undone,
The book is long; will we end on the same page?

Left red handed,
but he’s never caught.
Yeah boy, bring your bullets,
you’ll never take your shot.
Are you comfortable now?
I’m sure you’re not…
The only thing keeping you safe is my patience,
I still have two eyes, so I see both your faces.
Drag the lake for
concrete memories
we made, they’ll stay,
they’ll stay at the bottom
you cant think that deep!
You can’t think that deep!
They’ll stay at the bottom,
You can’t think that deep!

Blind and burnt out of control
like a corkscrewing car crash, I’m here to let you know.
I’m still a wreck, but I climbed out months ago.
Go on, I know.
It’s different when its close to home.
Always idling by, waiting for the green light.
Steal a glance, from the rear view.
Can’t afford to, fall behind.
Blind and burnt out of control
like a corkscrewing car crash, I’m here to let you know.
I’m still a wreck, but I climbed out months ago.
Suffice to say,
you went silent and you suffered.
These ears won’t, help them see.
One shot away, falling down memory lane,
I know it’s the longest street.
Blind and burnt out of control
like a corkscrewing car crash, I’m here to let you know.
I’m still a wreck, but I climbed out months ago.
Fake it, so you know!

You’re all the air I need,
but it’s a huge investment, just to breathe.
And I’m tied to, the thought of it,
holding back no regrets.
Bedside willow,
I’ve lost my breath,
hanging on every last one of
your words, dissect this emptiness,
it gets me higher than homesick angels.
Chasing time behind.
And I see you more than midnights on backroads,
alone, reciting graffiti power poles,
They say!
Make the stars fall,
before they,
crash…
Make the stars fall,
before they, crash in to
you.
