while you are away
my heart comes undone
slowly unravels
in a ball of yarn
the devil collects it
with a grin

terrifying best, days of our lives
we’re hanging on the best days of our lives
no two ways about it, best days of our lives
they’re coming right up, if we can just get through this one

I’ll hang on, grab onto your feet
someone else holds tied to my shoelaces
when their trouser leg tears, runs and stops
at the seam to keep us dangled together
until help finds us here

(songs from six years ago.)

I’m walking down Broadway
Each footstep is a new love letter
I’m trying to make eye contact
With each and every stranger that I pass
Thinking about the city
It’s living proof people need to be together
I’m thinking about how I just want to open up
And give and give and give

And it’s ok for you to care
Cause I can feel you in the air
And while you wonder “how’s this gonna end?”
I only want it to begin

I’m thinking about desire
I’ve had to learn how to sin successfully
I’m thinking about bliss
And bliss is all dressed up
And there’s no one to dance with
Remembering her smile and the nuclear bomb
And the reasons I loved her
Walking through Central Park
I’m in a foriegn country and I’m waiting for a sign

That it’s ok for you to care
Cause I’m not going anywhere
And while you wonder if you should let me in
I only want it to begin

I’m still singing
Twisting new melodies, breaking arrangements
Thinking about my heart
I guess you’ve heard, sometimes it’s heavy
But I just keep moving
When I hit a wall, I look up at the sky
I’m thinking about my maker
In spite of all this I know she won’t give up on me

And its ok for you to care
Cause I can taste you everywhere
While it’s true
All straight things must bend
I only want it to begin

I only want it to begin
I only want it to begin

you were looking at pictures in the distance /
hoping to see the future in your pictures /
of the distance hoping to see /
the future looking at pictures in the distance

before electric light,
you paddled through the soup of darkness as a crocodile
cherry picking in the river
i would leave crisp note footprints at the bankside

watch it closely you will see it begin to move
watch it closely you see it begin to flicker

while we’re here, let’s see what happens
what we got, got to loose
while we’re tidal and flexed on a full moon
it’d be a sure, sure shame to not to
