Someone

Though she took her turn
a mountain to unlearn
a mouth brought to me
but I’m unsure how to sing
someone built this moat
someone built this scene
but I’m not so sure
people’s eyes poked out
and when to leave?
and when to leave?

Leaf and then Stem
02:01

Leaf and then stem
and leaf again and stem again
I’m not confused about
my path
when I look at them
Lifted from some ailing place
grown continuity
She lifts her arm into an old shape
and tries to “be”
Light rearranging
word to my mouth
to speak
to see it so
word to my mouth
to meet
to drink
word to my mouth
to leave
to need you so
Like her
We set out to leave the house of old history
building something new
up and proud
with my new person
As we packed the van up
there wasn’t enough room
So, I gave her away
We’re going for a drive now
into the double grey
we can’t take everyone
so you guys have to stay

If I Ever Find
04:11

If I ever find
that calm walk down the street
man, that kiss upon my cheek
that thing that seems to move me endlessly
Know what I do
I’d come find you
and tell you what I did
and maybe some smile would come upon your lips.
and when to leave?
You’re not too full.
What happened to my line
there’s no line to follow
Too full
No
Too… proud
pacing unlike anyone I’ve met before you
Too tall
My father
I’ve found no reason
There’s so much to give
There’s no time
And now my child comes
Even when one finds the pattern they move on

Dream it On
04:27
|

|
Thinkin on thinkin rolled over end over end
Making something small into something big
Dream it on
Open up
It won’t be long now
Dream it on
Don’t close off
It won’t be long now
Melded hand
caught a foot
of a heartbeat
sounded off in the blue
Whaled along
way too long
but you know theres another way
done up
just enough
even as you
let me come around
let alone
I come undone
But you know theres another way
Dream it on
Open up
It won’t be long now
Dream it on
Don’t close off
It won’t be long now
Dream it on
Open up
It won’t be long now
Dream it on
Don’t close off
It won’t be long now
