Fan On (Live)

|
|
||
|
fan on in your room
daylight seeping through
window shifting two blues
morning separate
pushed down making space
can't sleep so i'm waiting
i can't guess what's on your mind
feel so dumb for even trying
and i can't explain it now
why my head's so fucking loud
gave up on knowing why
sitting silent passing time

it snowed last night
back in ohio
i'm in la and warm
but it's so fucking dry though
you're in my head
monochromatic
i tried to make it fade
but got it stuck in static
couldn't find a shade to paint it over
when everything i said felt like a lie
i was scared to let you cut me open
cuz you're not gonna like what you find
it's halloween we're in your kitchen talking shit about our friends and eating chicken
you went upstairs
i stole outside
i know it's late but i could drink some more tonight
you moved away
off to ann arbor
and i'm a bum living at home and getting farther
from all my friends
they're sliding slowly
i woke up dead inside my bed and didn't notice
i wish i was drunk enough to call you
cuz i've run out of things to sing about
i've been trying to draw you with my eyes closed
and you're not gonna like how it turned out

Snowplow (Live)
02:30
|
|
||
|
the road gets plowed
trudging through the frozen clover
i feel better now
still i'm always going over
my phone goes off
got rejected from a new job
in the parking lot
coming up with different problems
you were whom i'd hoped to see
sitting in your favorite chair
the third time this week
that we've both been
here
at urgent care

New Sublet (Live)

always repeating
cutting my teeth on
atlantic beaches gone
unsteady reaching
watching my friends leave town
providence fleeting out
when did it get so loud?
now you're seeing it backwards
you're struggling to draw your own face
sitting drunk on the internet
looking at prices of places
for cities you don't live in and you've never been
you're just getting addicted to starting all over again

Heliotrope (Live)
03:26
|
|
||
|
did i ruin the moment?
laying down in your grass now
and i'm burning my skin again
staring wide-eyed and stressed out
cuz it's nice outside and that makes me feel stupid
for letting myself get so low a
m i wasting the weekend now?
freaking out under the heliotropes
i'm dragging my forearms
never as fun as we thought i'd be
i'm combing through bad jokes i wrote
to tell in your company
cuz i think by now i've said too much on everything
i feel your fingers go limp in my hand
and i should have just asked you
is this the conversation you want to have?
is this the conversation you want?
what do you want?

Frame (Live)
04:41
|
|
||
|
i spit the rest all down the sink drain
while my morning colors fade out
into caffeinated ether
a bad attempt to quiet down
and this week doesn't feel that different
i stay up late for nothing good
i kick myself for never sleeping
i'm weighted down by all i should
but i don't know what i'm doing anymore
i wanna be productive
but i can't get off the floor
and if you ask me how i'm feeiing i'll just lie
i see my best friends every weekend
i'm fucking reading all the time
and i can't focus like i used to
your hurried lights all pitched in red
i watched the train go by your window
i'm having trouble staying present
but i don't want to talk about it now
cuz we can't keep this up forever
so let's just let it all fall out
i'm radiating
angling from frame
drifting so aimlessly
sliding away
i'm radiating
angling away
moving on endlessly
falling from frame
|

|

|
trace the tiles
semicircles on the floor
i’m not tired
i just get lonely when i’m bored
got your voicemail
driving home at six pm
didn’t call back
took my turn in chess instead
do you want it to be different but you don’t know how to say it out loud now?

Skewed (Live)
01:27
|
|
||
|
poured out from my split mouth
how i don't want to go home
cuz i don't drive drunk anymore
woke with the pattern on my face
trying to get off to the right start
but it's like reaching for a rope in the dark
cuz i'm radiating
angling out of frame
|

Bodysurfing (Live)
04:16
|
|
||
|
salted stone sinking slow overthrown undertowed
slid upstream silently no retreat through the crease
overtaken waiting for a wave
out alone with nothing else to save me
it's been a year since
we last spoke
and i'm still here
losing hope
and if i go before you wanted
would you cut the rope?
leave me haunted?
told myself it's time to make a change
but i just wanted everything the same
just a kid unfurling
out adrift bodysurfing
another time
we still don't talk
you let it rain
you washed me off

Trundle Bed (Live)
03:37
|
|
||
|
tiny in the darkness where we couldn't see the moon
staring at the ceiling of your furnished rented room
wondering like thrusts at the plaster overhead
imagining the atlas from a wooden trundle bed
though i struggle to remember how the growing pains clutched tight
i think about you often but it's so often late at night
and someday i'd like to ask if all this distance feels all right
but we don't talk much and when we do we always fight
is it quiet where you are?
are you finding peace of mind?
i'm assembling the pieces
biting fingers
biding time
do you know how it feels?
want you to know how it feels

Eggshell (Live)
03:42
|
|
||
|
i'm sleeping later every day
i let my time all go to waste
i'm cracking eggshells in the pan too much
i don't know if i'm washing my hands enough
i'm keeping it close to the surface
but that's not really making it hurt less
nothing to do but keep texting my therapist
so many half assed attempts to get over this
still dreaming in abbreviated emails
regarding airfare quotes, unrendered thumbnails
it's 9pm and slipping out "i'm still at home"
blistered my palm, losing to metal mario
i'm having it out with the countertop
cuz it doesn't believe i can turn it off
wasting a year in the garage like a gravel pit
but i'm young i should just fucking enjoy this shit
i hate the part of the song where the chorus hits
cuz i don't like sticking flags on my nervousness
stuck in the kitchen for hours it's my default
still can't determine between white sugar and salt
|

17. |
|

|
i should have said so much to you
which is lame but maybe kind of nice
like scratchoffs in a birthday card
or your name on a grain of rice
and i've been sick since seventh grade
and it's not terrible but it's too long
and we still talk but now it's changed
does it hurt more to just move on?
maybe i loved you
or maybe i wanted to
see something through
just cuz i never do
and i should call but i'm afraid
of what you're gonna say
notice all the ways i've changed
and all the ways i've stayed the same
and i hate talking on the phone
because my speaking voice is boring
and i can't stand to be alone
cuz it's so easy to ignore me
i'm shouting it now cuz i can't write it down
i let it pour out from the sides of my mouth
all sequined and stoned sucking in through my teeth
i'm taking it home with me, still learning to speak
