Closer

underneath the ice and snow
i feel better better better
and through all the worlds i've known
i feel closer closer closer
to what i need to listen to
my ears are not fools
underneath the ice and snow
i feel better better better
and through all the worlds i've known
i feel closer closer closer
to what i should be looking for
the invisible strings
the unraveling things

The Basement

i heard you wading through trash
walking down the alley
i heard you tearing through the roof
scratching through my ceiling
i heard you rumbling over tracks
kinda restless and seething
i heard you won't come out of the basement
yeah i know it's scary
i heard your brilliant glassy bitter sea
i heard the sound of your palms sprouting wings
i heard your murky water august dreams
i hear you

slow morning
won't ask for nothing
found a place to sleep under the table
curtains change
in owl cave i write my name
do i have to be alone
do i have to be owned

do i have to be a nun
it's snowing
aint nothing warming
i woke up feeling over cloudy
where's my face
we left that cage days and days ago
do i have to be alone
do i have to be owned
am i missing out
do i have to be a nun
do i have to be alone
do i have to be alone
do i have to be alone
do i have to be alone

Brain Cloud
02:29
|
|||
i've been laying down on the carpet
wearing my great depression kind of face
i've been sitting out on the curb
waiting for hours and hours
eating garbage food in a garbage place
do you see me, oh
do you need me, oh
will you feed me, oh
do you read me, oh
i wanna live my life like my brother would
i want to live better than me
but everyone has something to wait for
i mean we all have to wait for something
i'll let waves and worlds wash over me
a giant brain cloud
i'll be patient i'll be so patient yeah i'll be patient i'll be
freaky til the wild end
do you see me, oh
do you need me, oh
will you feed me, oh
do you read me, oh
i wanna live my life my brother would
i want to live better than me
but everyone has something to wait for
i mean we all have to wait for something
i mean we all have to give up knowing
i mean i don't have to wait on anyone

Biomythography
02:37
|

every day is a lifetime
like how it's sad to see the sun die
early evening is such a sad time
every day is a lifetime
everyone is a universe
like how i think i know you well but i can never be sure
where your silent space comes from
or all your heroic mythologies
will our orbits align
or disappear into the silvery air
every day is a timeline
you've got all these people and places to memorize
on flashing index cards in the sky
every day is a timeline
everyone is a superstring
the way we all connect together or unravel
a supersonic vibration
it's kinda like an adolescent biography
carved in the bottom bunk
or like a strand of your silvery hair

The Thread
02:28
|

we're standing close enough to see
(though we've lost our ground)
that scar below your knee
(and we've lost our sound but)
we can see the end from the beginning
you know we're waiting for you
we can see the end from the beginning now
we're sorry you're hungry
and we're sorry you're lost
and we're sorry you're homesick for who knows what
we felt the same in our day
and it's hard to decide
there are more days ahead
and it's hard to know what's right
please don't lose the thread
and how do i transcend geography and time
we don't belong here anyway
we felt the same in our day

put your headphones on
peel the paint off of your wall
ride your bike around the block
been hanging out in parking lots
remember everything
they won't remember you
you know you can't stay
but that's ok thats ok
ink on your fingers
scabs on your knees
you're already everything you want to be
and you won't bruise
you won't bruise for long
rewind that song repeatedly
start to see the green wall underneath
in a new place for the millionth time
everything's antique, nothings mine
remember everything
they won't remember you
you know you can't stay
but that's ok thats ok
ink on your fingers
scabs on your knees
you're already everything you want to be
and you won't bruise
you won't bruise for long
ink on your fingers
scabs on your knees
you're already everything you want to be

Weather
02:12
|

i thought i could find it here and i thought i could stay
i sat so still i jumped into the air
it's greater than planets it can't be measured by matter
a light expanded in my hollowness
it stretched through my skin it shone through my eyelids
i wanna hear a cloud i wanna hear a clear air
sirens scream through the city and i miss you already
this weather the water out of me
there was no beginning and i'll love you forever
there is no end nowhere no end in sight
there's no end at all there's no end at all
i wanna hear a cloud i wanna hear a clear air

Mt. Death

will you miss me when i'm gone into the great and wild future
and will you still see the outline of my face
or sense the glory of my ghost
will we meet again in the hot dusty canyon
or will earth life feel so dark and distant
