i slipped on ice in pleasant grove i’d fall asleep often on drugs i sought a being far above to soothe my bruises
 i caught a bus back to my house i learned the hardest way through doubt i saw it all and spat it out just to return it i felt the air come out of my mouth i cooked a chicken dish last night watched tortoise play, later cried i thought about how often I take scenes for granted i made a friend at the bar on fry caught the fleeting buzz of brand new eyes i often think i speak despite the allure of silence i felt the air come out of my mouth

Windchimes 03:17
i thought i’d walk outside to the cold not enough sleep last night to be productive and where else would i go? i thought i might photograph some birds the context makes my motivation seem a little less absurd i thought i might go and eat some snow is the of my existence something my body might have told? i thought i’d walk outside to the cold underdressed, i’ll impress upon me everything i know i thought i’d walk outside to the cold i send my breath out of my mouth like it is leaving from a home i thought i might go take a bath always fearful of the fact that, with no drip, my pipes could’ve froze i thought my listlessness was bad but how do you endure it slow when you always take it fast ? i thought i’d walk outside to the cold lightly stressed, i’ll impress upon me every principle

there go, the chords i believe in though they’ve gone away, it won’t be long until i reclaim them years down the line once they’ve grown up, healthy and strong there go, the chords i believe in i miss them and the dance they often led i would pass them in the kitchen and find them laying in my bed it’s about entering peacetime with a rift left at the core there go, the chords i believe in i got them from every song i loved before it’s about what’s lost from loose grip, and the rest will stick to my hands there go, the chords i believe in from all of my most favorite bands
5.
In Some Time 02:19
in some time i’ll be alive after bumpy rides carrying bliss like spring break tides in some time i’ll catch the surprise in some time we’ll butt heads eating frito pie by the whistling speeds of the western flies take me with the hollowness inside in some time i will die
6.
you are in my life now you are in my life and i welcome you to it you are in my life now you are in my life we are getting through this never thought i’d be as a shape amorphous i reflect the light you focus i take in your love, so molten you are in my life now you are in my life i can feel you moving you are in my life now you are in my life some sticks, some bones, much soothing with you here, the wounds are closing

Cars 03:32
at a light thinking about the cars we drive questioning while i turn, unmoving eyes did i do a bad job? is my best not enough? is my love soft to the touch? i know it will be fine thinking about the cars we drive i know it will be fine now sleeping odd pillow’s on the curve of my spine head’s resting weight cool sweat abates my fright what will old feel like? am i running out of time? do i pass your days, or are they mine?

Broad 02:28
9.
what will i say what will i do when my time is up and i flee the coop dragged behind, then pushed on through passing me by left echoes entombed when i feel the pulsing hue when i look back and see unrefined youth what will i say what will i do feeling inverted stabilized through years of a life curve at a groove sun singed my eyes ground i’m moving to
10.
i hope some day one piece of my art is worth a lot of money and i can just give it to a friend and when i visit that person, i’ll be reminded of how old i have become, yet again now it’s all of my life, before i arrange my surroundings in a comforting way and sometimes, for space, i lock my door i lay, comatose, enjoying the color of the always observing carpet floor now it’s all of my life, before i fall into myself in sickness and in health i fall into myself i fall into myself
11.
No Lawnmower 03:23
it’s a distant shot it’s a routine drive that i take a few times a year to remain alive though this time i didn’t have the lawnmower but i plan on bringing it down once a few weeks pass by it’s a french press roast it’s a breeze i glide i awake, in a daze, with a sigh and i anticipate the light though this time it sunk in me that soon, things might change but if they don’t i hope that they’ll consider just being rearranged
12.
i am failing faith feeling it seep out i lose a little of the light i lose a little of the light and life is settled time shaving down the fine shaving down the fine i shape my mold from clay i form it in my hands existence is a dance existence is a dance and life is settled time shaving down the fine shaving down the fine
