all i ever wanted

i was living in my home and
i was living in the smallest room
and it was all i ever wanted
i was living with my kin and
i was living with my best friend
and it was all i ever wanted
i was living in my home and
i was living where i wanted
and it was all i ever wanted
take it back, when you die
i will be just fine
take it back, when you die
it was all i ever wanted
take it back, when you die
everything will be alright

shame mist
01:35
|

what is
shame misting off
my body
when i tell you that
if we can recover
then maybe i'll have another
chance to explain it
too ashamed
to even enjoy it
what is
everything
turned yellow with morning
this writing
cannot appear

b a good boy
02:52
|
|||
as he sits beside me
i can feel his trembling hands
i tell him to be a good boy
i tell him to be a man
as he sits at the edge of the bed
i don't believe in him
i tell him boy why don't you show your face
i'll love you just the same
ohh, when things get bad
i know he'll stop by
he treats me accordingly
he treats me accordingly
and when i'm bad
and when i am trying
he treats me accordingly
he treats me accordingly
he treats me accordingly
as he sits beside me
i can see his terrible gaze
i tell him to be a good boy
i tell him to feel the same
as he sits at the edge of the bed
i search for his mouth
i say boy stop your crying
or i'll give you something to cry about
ohh, when things get bad
i know he'll stop by
he treats me accordingly
he treats me accordingly
and when i'm bad
and when i am trying
he treats me accordingly
he treats me accordingly
he treats me according to me

the distance

[emily dickinson found poem]
positive as sound
i rejoin my dog
it was this time
last year i died
it was the distance
it was the distance
it was the distance
it was the
until it blocked
my eyes dusty
many flowers failed
was news to me
it was the distance
it was the distance
it was the distance
it was the
i'll hand it to
the angel because
we love the wound
it looks just like us
it was the distance
it was the distance
it was the distance
it was the
it was the

(as i was walking) what is the chance machine?
(down the street) everything that happens abides
(with a tear in her eye) the chance machine is my god
(i was gonna go see a) with the decaying snake coiled on the trail
(nother guy) and the chance machine
(if i was a) the last time i spoke
(??) in the chance machine across the country
(would you tell me something that i) liquor like the surgeon
(want to know) general's warning
(and i ???) in the corner blinking her buttons
(for the best) the chance machine controls no particular unfairness
(and i) hand and hand random cloud formation
(??? for to stay) no meaning behind any coincidence of shapes

where do i go before i go
where do i go before i go
where do i go before i go before i go
where do i go before i go

wanna survive
02:30
|
|||
remember when we sat at a table too big for two people
you were in my dreams asking to wake up most of the time
and in my mind i'm standing in line at the gas station inside
do you wanna survive another year by side?
do you wanna survive another year by side?
in my mind i'm at the corner, why don't you come over
remember the days when i would walk into your place
and there was a time when you used to meet me halfway
do you wanna survive another year by side?
do you wanna survive another year by side?
do you wanna survive?
do you wanna survive?
do you wanna survive?
do you wanna?
do you wanna?
do you wanna?

russell song

we decide to put a lightbulb inside the ghost's chest
hang it up at the window, staring out at the fence
and when we go outside i can see inside
you neighbor's building
who knew they'd be exposed like that
and all the tulips are wilting
we decide to pluck flowers and hide them in packages
you write me a letter on a receipt from breakfast
and when we go outside i can see inside your best friend's car
they're smokin a cigarette, trying to calm their heart real fast
and i said, i can relate to that
the building is orange and it has horns
of gargoyles if you look enough
the air conditioning units jut all the way up
and do you ever wonder how many bodies?
and do you ever wonder how anybody deals with their ghost?
hanging up at the window
a signal to go home.

good intentions
02:32
|
|||
i don't act like this much in situations
you don't know me well enough to know my intentions
i don't have to know why i blow up in my tensions
you just have to assume i have good intentions
why wouldn't you know i have good intentions?
why wouldn't you know i have good intentions?
i cross the sidewalk alone for my reservations
don't you walk too slow for my situation and
i don't have to know why i do anything
and i don't have to know why you go to your conclusions and
why wouldn't you know i have good intentions?
why wouldn't you know i have good intentions?
why wouldn't you know i have good intentions?
why wouldn't you know i have good intentions
