grave

i’ll force down every mouth full of food
despite it all tasting like sand
only for i know if i don’t do it soon
i’ll collapse down right where i stand
and i have to keep standing for now
so that i can take one last stab
at showing you that much like the food that i eat
much longer without you i’ll pass
it’s hard to even open my mouth
sometimes i must use my hands
pry open the hatch like a basement floor
toss it in there like i’m taking trash
swallow my pride with a mouth full of wrath
in the morning when i’m at my wake
avoid that talks that i must have
decisions about how i set my sails
so i don’t veer away from my path
though there’s not much left on this boat
no people, nor cargo, just trash
i don’t see the point in not sinking this joint
the one option i have is to crash
the only thing i know i can do best
don’t dig in the ground
i know that i’ll fall in
the soil tossed around
guess i packed it way too thin
don’t bury me now
i’ve so much left to give
give it one more day
don’t dig my grave
don’t bury me in my grave
bury me in my grave
bury me in my grave

rocks i can't chew

think i stepped on some broken glass
think i feel it thru my shoe
feel like thinking of all the ways
that my feelings don’t come through
but u just keep on walking
just like u said you’d do
i remain in shards
lodged into u
we built trees, it felt so alive
even if we fought the whole time
i felt safe hoping u wouldn’t leave,
chop it down at the end of the night
assembling the memories
clinging to a fleeting home
i hold on like a shirt in the rain
i’ll keep u warm if u just keep me
but i won’t leave ur back
i keep myself sticking to the feeling
think i’ll try something new
feels like each time i do
nothing feels so fulfilling
put my hand on the stove
i’m too scared of the cold
the burning could take it all
even if it succeeds
there wasn’t much left of me
at least i wouldn’t fall
chop it down at the end of the night
chop it down at the end of the night
chop it down at the end of the night
chop it down at the end of the night

tripped on a trunk

running thru a forest
tripped on a trunk
never taking root
outsmarting entropy
a more dangerous path beneath
when we grasp for each other
but still you catch me
you caught me
running thru a forest
tripped on a trunk
the other trees threaten their immobility
but I never collide with such stability

locket now
03:41

dead middle of the night
i get so confronted by the cold
it’s already to marrow
i can feel it in my hollow bones
it’s dark now, there’s no sound
i wonder if the world’s stopped turning around
my incessant rattling’s
scared the sun from ever coming out
the warmth has drained
it’s been replaced
merciless rain
more leaving stains
i kept a locket now
it just feels dumb
i kept a locket now
it just feels dumb
it’s already november
i look down and see myself
distorted and colorless
fixed for as long as i can tell
is this what u see?
no wonder winter won’t wish us well
no nearsighted notions but
u know how to make it all melt
u meant too much
that we lost touch
it goes as such
often enough
the sun comes out
no more rain now
we figure how
to slice the clouds
i kept a locket now
don’t care if it’s dumb
give u my locket now
it looks so dumb
ow!
i know u remember the way
thru this door
up the hill
through avalanches
to my floor
so chase the scent of wine
find the time to kill
maybe then and only then
the world can unstill
maybe then, the world can unstill

avalanches (cover)

if snow is flesh in gardens: we don't have mouths to talk about it
between avalanches we can find our language
between fire blankets we can speak our language
but if snow is like skin: it pulls away, so easy,
dragged from the body
what if all stripped wood is branches and
all frozen lakes are water
then our bodies will be avalanches
then our bodies will be avalanches
