California
04:20
|

I awoke in the wrong city
every sentence incomplete
spitting out awkward ways to leave
into this veil of dust and heat
my hands fall through where there was you, California
how sweet it could be
I drive up and down the coast
you're there covering my eyes
paradise empty as a joke
only touched by dust and smoke
my hands fall through where there was you, California
how sweet it could be
you know how my mind can tremble, empty it and make it simple
how sweet it could be
When I told you don't reply
crumpled up on the backseat floor
growing up one year felt like five
In this dust I grew five years, I grew five years
my hands fall through where there was you, California
how sweet it could be
you know how my mind can tremble, empty it and make it simple
how sweet it could be

Blue Ink

I left the water on, it flooded the room
I swam around til my organs turned blue
coming through the ceiling, the hand of the lord
he grabbed me by the hair and he threw me in the void
Hail, Hail to the veins
Help me get there blue ink
crawl into my body and let me see
The Ink starts running, I get the same taste
when the planets collide and float into space
lost in the house the milky way
I'm swimming and swimming I can hear him say
Hail, Hail to the veins
Help me get there blue ink
crawl into my body and let me see
ahhhh, ahhhh
Hail, Hail to the veins
I think I like this, I don't think I like this
Hail, Hail to the veins
Help me get there blue ink
crawl into my body and let me see

A Knife That Meant Well
04:03
|

Translucent man, you're sand through my hands
turned to glass
broke you in half, glass cuts like a knife,
like a knife
a knife that meant well, you tell me meant well
meant well
My thoughts on you are starting to bleed
would you sew them up seam by seam
what once was sweet, turns bitter in age
I carry the man from place to place
place to place
petty pace from place to place to place
I thought you were a cheat to rob me of my sleep
I curse and wear the heavy night
would you ease my tongue
would you comfort me
Heaven knows I try to take out that knife

It's Funny
02:56
|

It's funny you go back on things that you said
I could go backwards and into your bed
you've said what you've said
but I can't seem to put all my words to rest
and I've tried
if I could walk
out that door
if I could get it figured out
would you come and visit me now
if I could get it figured out
I thought I had your love and care
oh what it was
oh what it was
I'm standing right now on the jagged edge
in flesh and in muscles that want to possess
you've said what you've said
but I can't seem to put all my words to rest
here I am
do not want something more
I'm filling the absence with loud
this is real right here right now
it's real right here right now
is this some sick test of God
for what is strong
