I will not wait here idly by when I can't see my own face
In blank and dark expression words seem to escape
In due time I think you'll find that I'm the best
Transfer emotions baby chest to chest
Am I the one or not
Get me started
I won't ever stop
If you love me you're not telling anyone
If you want me take two steps back
It's with the devil that I share my head
Head of a fallen angel on my lap
At night, the feeling's pain
There was a light
An empty grave
Her body's way too cold for me to save
My legs are like shattering glass
I've heard bad things about you
Are you trying to be bad
Why my days are so short
Why does it feel like that
Yeah it's true to me, it feels that bad
There's a heaven but it's nothing if you turn your back
I will die rich
The cat's in the bag
I spend my days too short
I spend my nights on edge
I will not wait here idly by when I can't see my own face
In blank and dark expression words seem to escape
Yet somehow you're one of a kind
A kind that doesn't break
I've a heart that isn't patient
Words seem to scape
In due time I think you'll find that I'm the best
Transfer emotions baby chest to chest
Am I the one or not
Get me started
I won't ever stop
I had a feeling and it ruined my life
I had a premonition of my death
And it was at your hands
I will not wait here idly by

New York

You'll come home
I'll be sitting in the living room waiting
That's what I've been doing lately
I know
That you want me to come out with you
New York looks good
But can I handle
I go down Harlem River Exit 19
Past the school
Bought some juice and trail mix
Time two:
Everything was perfect
We went out and got drunk
Bought some fruit and cookies
Walked down 146th
And I wish we had your car
To not find a parking spot
I go down Harlem River exit 19
Pick you up
Use your lips to remind me how soon is now
Up the pine soaked stairs to your bedroom
I’ll be back next weekend
Dream through
Here lies the son of the country, cow patch
Tries to cross the bridge,
And he drives right into it
Take his ashes to the fountain
Where they dance in the water
Garden, in the shade
Where you lie in the dirt
Climb up to the roof
With the tar and the feather
On the balcony
Where he’s finally here for you

Gatekeeper

We put our name in a loop of string
Wear it on your chest
Proper party
Bound 2 live
The left hand lean
It’s all here
To sell a vision
You want to know what you cry about
How to feel when the pin pricks down
Underneath a frightened dream
Welcome here to the floor
When you’ve been touched
By the hand of the devilish one
Pull me to the floor
Where the gatekeeper is me
A mechanical hand shuts the light off
I’m alive
I’m moving on the pretense
Of lost future and skinny leg queen
Where I go
Foreseen in a mirror shows
That the words said in the curse are spit and slurred
There’s an end in beginning
Now it’s realized
Pull you to the floor
Where the gatekeeper is you
You’re the dweller on the threshold
In the dream of the right room
A path, a phone and a door
The call is never answered
The caller isn’t alone
Welcome here to the floor
There’s some fear in letting go

You take command of my heart
And you roll it over
Still I want you to come back to me now
You're allowed
Time is a circle when you see it from above
An icy onward
A harmful way to explode
I just want you to know
I wanted to be hire than the vessel would allow
New dimensions
Admissions of pain in a passionate way
I had visions of flying with my baby
I had the cash in the handbag
I left it all in your backpack
And you can back off me now
I hang in mixed company
I stopped listening to bands because they're haunting me now
They sound sexless and so fucking soft to me now

When I Was 14

When we were 14
Started thinking of you
Locked up next to you
Second floor hallway
I am friends with you
Am I
Never told you I was disappointed
When we didn’t get homeroom together
I’m obsessed with you
Am I
Met you on your throne
Up in the lake house
Did I
Am I
I’ve been thinking about you
I’ve been drinking about you
You knew what it was in my closed palm
Saw it on your sleeve, agony charm
Hurt you when I did
Made a fool of myself
Made decision to go separate places
Turned it back around
Did I
Yes I did
You go, I go out
I’ve been hurting too
When it wasn’t sure
Made ourselves a plaque
Here we are months later
In it, in it
I’ve been thinking about you
I’ve been drinking about you
You knew what it was in my closed palm
Saw it on your sleeve, agony charm
When we were 14
Started thinking of you
Locked up next to you
Second floor hallway
I’m obsessed with you
Am I

A darker kind of love is what I give to this
A shadow conversation on the edge of time
A final kind of crisis in the palm of my hand
A multiversal conflict in my restless mind
You knew me as the one who spoke in passionate lies
The darker twin of someone that you used to know
The feeling's like a code imprinted on our blood now
The fire is directed at my soul
Until my eyes close again
Until I walk through the flames
See my legs shut down and my brain shut down
See my dark sunglasses as they hit the ground
See my legs shut down
As I desire something that I can't describe
I wander into something that I can't explain
I laugh - I know that it's an exercise
The message finds its way into my brain
Until my eyes close again
Until I walk through the flames
See my legs shut down and my brain shut down
See the dark romantic so tightly wound
See my legs shut down
You know me...
