ring

|

pray / stranger say my name / hold me up today / i can't see past this thing
stay / a big cloud on the brain / circle round the ring / circle round the ring
great / slipped off in the rain / how am i to blame? / help me find this thing
mistake? / you ran there in a day / circle round the ring / circle round the ring
don't play / big cloud on the brain / every time, i cave / but let's let this one stay

temple
05:36
|
|||
soul unfold / don't budge, get fucked, spit blood / while the vision splits the seams / hold me
let me down / no word, no hurt, no sound / put it back into the ground / get it off my knee
are you the temple? / no
quit on me / my friends, my job, my dream / i know nothing comes for free / hold me
bird, don't cry / my kid's gonna be alright / put it back into the light
are you the temple? no

fool
03:06
|
|||
i wouldn’t say i was the honest one / but if you’ll say you will, say you will / and in the stream i caught a bug / sweet, suck on the blood
you put the poison in the apple tree / but if you’ll say you will, say you will / and i got nothing holding me / love me honestly
i am a fool
i wouldn’t say i was the honest one / but if you’ll say you will, say you will / another piece of me rolls over / across your shoulders
i curl up tangled like a silver wire / but if you’ll say you will, say you will / and i got nothing holding me / see me in the dream
i am a fool

nite lite
05:32
|
|||
one friend turned around, holding hands with another one / “you got your shit right, you got it all figured out” / but i'm just floating down in the dark with the other ones
i'm not a nite lite
my friend the sun, she got stuck in the mud again / she's in the bedroom, hundreds of Colt 45's / but i'm a dark mark, rape of the lock kind of everyman
i'm not a nite lite
my mom's best friend put me up on a pedestal / “your worth is endless,” brisk is the animal mind / but i'm floating down in the dark, i'm forgettable
i'm not a nite lite

i saw the egg
02:00
|
|||
throwing bricks in an empty room / I saw a quiet crowd, gloom / I saw the egg crack, it was you / I saw two lovers running through
and what can I do / when you're telling me to wake up?

maya
04:25
|
|||
last year you were the apple core / the bruise, the taste held in my coat for days / and then the truth / the only thing i ever want to do / is take your shape she moved away, maya
last time i heard you call i dropped it all / the house, the fence the shopping malls / but i was held i know you sing for everybody else / but not for me i don't believe you, maya
last year you wore the crown i knew your sound / i kissed the ring, the dressing gown / but what the hell i want everything you have for myself / i want it all is it so hard, maya?
how do you keep towering?

made my friend take the weight off my back / it was only a laugh
you're my favorite, i'll bring you some smokes / it was only a joke
in the river i bit back the urge / to swim to the bottom and never emerge
on the couch shooting threes with the team / it was only a dream
post up / roll back / switch up / just breathe / swish

leo
03:52
|

leo is a friend of mine / high all the time / in the morning cutting pine / can't ever get my friend on the line
leo threw their phone away / what can i say? / does it ever go away? / i never know if leo's ok
michael is a friend of mine / we never talk, who has the time? / in the morning chugging wine / “are you alright?” “yeah, i'm just fine”
now i'm just a hand in glove / go to the bank to pay it off / do we ever get above?

(tethering to the light)
i sat w tom at the themed bar / & i thought to ask but i didn’t want to seem too forward, so i shut up / & now you cry when the boss comes on the radio / but that’s ok, tommy waves
louis called me the other day / i wasn’t ignoring him but i knew what was coming, now i can’t turn away / & now he’s living sick & alone in the city / like a spot in history
“here, between answer & nothing, i stand” / i read your book of poems & try to find my own power / “is it true the earth is all there is, and the earth does not last?” / yeah its true

tower
05:42
|
|||
you see me standing in the back of the room / i see a quiet crowd, and pass on through / i saw the egg crack, it was you
i've been the moon over the edge of the town / and all i ever did was let you down / i saw the egg crack, it was you
how do you keep towering?
And i've been traveling forever / i'm not a rock, i'm not together / i saw the egg crack, it was you
i don't need the crown i used to know / i'm always traveling towards the shape of you alone / i saw the egg crack, it was you
how do you keep towering?
