Fourth House 02:12
coughed up and cooled off but settling in i lay down and cry out i'm still kicking and hungry for nothing so help me out i'm not better just dealing without this road i'm on seems pointless and tiresome get up you're sick but you aren't dead i want to be the person i am left as but i find comfort remembering sunshine breathing in my mind over and over hunting clover putting my feet down in new rivers i wasn't the one who had left her heal me again sun keeper

Dark Things 06:30
i was skipping stones you were in the know around glacial plains and trees dark things like us grow on the bridge while water got darker got cars and life got harder unholy divider know i never left you freshwater birthed us into cities and fed our hunger we were starving now we're learning grow into the greatest man in our family know i never left you

fractured into a million tiny pieces and none of them are even none of them are whole wires hanging from the ceiling a marionette bleeding to the bone and i cannot say no to you i am too afraid to refuse i cannot let go body and soul last night you said you were leaving what did you mean by that? where would you go? hey man, i know you're full of demons but that makes us even that makes us whole and i cannot say no for you i am so afraid you'll refuse i cannot let go.

Work 02:39
work and stay home. since i've moved, seems like all i ever know. and all i do is sit alone in my room so far away from all my friends. it's okay. they were moving anyways. and i know some of them feel the same way. move far away for love. one thousand miles from home. far from anything i've ever known. for a job and girl you love which isn't always enough.

Okay Fine. 03:51
it wasn't intentional but i fell in love with you and you beared your teeth and i loved what you put me through i want you alone with me in our home i want to feel your bones on my bones if it were up to me i'd leave sweat and skin and i never let you in you have needs i have needs but i just sat on your bed with my hands folded between my knees you pick at me i bleed now all i do is grind my teeth some are broken and i'm still picking i had something and i lost it now i'm wearing down my nails on the change in my pocket you call to me a deadly ghost my broken bones are walking home
