all in favor gouge an eye let's merge together
stop only at becoming one to know that i'm the favorite
do you want my bones or do you really mean it
never been a better time to drop the wilted greetings
sand falls too slow through webbed fingers
i want bitter mints for better health
and settle for a stick of gum
chewing sweet but sour faced for all the years to come
knowing neither will get me what i want
sand falls too slow through webbed fingers
it's full love

Salt

tastes like magic some days i wish it'd go away
now i run towards the beehive
what if i never spoke again after the oath
and followed the path all the way down
if the water supply is to dry up tonight
let's go down to the ocean and swim in the basin
and drink all the salt til we can't move a muscle
and wither away

that ain't all it's gonna take my love
misfire, your ????????? and ??????? ????
bit for a change, who knows these days
bit for a change, skin saw the pain coming
remember when the carefully skated pond moved so
sprung a crack and rattled little-nose
he swore us death would get both our names
fell through the earth from acting that way
i heard he changed, who knows these days
i heard he changed, heart saw the river tumbling
out on your own off the path where the bottled blood is sold
warm you up, keep enough of the language of a cut
the sewn lips forever kiss
cut thin strips and own up
the sewn lips forever kiss
is it really trial by fire
if i leave before you let my ashes blow all over the hills and find their place

Perpetual Warmth
03:45
|

in the careful forest of your skin
soft spoken creatures shaking hands
gentle little spirits from your past and present see all the effort
you've come alive
enough wrong turns and soon enough you're right
the clock is shivering beneath the ice, in perfect time
i can't hold you in perpetual warmth
i can't give you what you need to ask yourself for
in even temper, in an honest manner
we grow together
stained and pinned down by the palest gray of pleasant thoughts
i will hold the world perfectly still until it thaws

first your hands shake
your arm twists
your eyes ache
your head spins
and one day before you know it you're asleep
i can't take it but i can't act
i think about the last thoughts i might draft
i can't take it but i can't act
i might never make a man out of that
