I am everything you thought I might be wearing every piece of clothing that you bought for me what a sight to see what a sight on that evening we were far as could be pointing at me from the wheel you told me I was wrong, I was just running away you said "wait for the winter and the cold honey those nights drill holes in your bones this is the glory of being alone maybe then you will pick up your phone" I've been working on a plan to make some alterations to an empty kingdom I'm half way there, I was half way there when I wrote it down I've got an ideology, a bottle empty you found a lover keeping lungs more healthy he don't smoke, no, he don't choke on his words what a strange new point of view to find out that I was the cage you climbed into it's amazing what empty space will do to fill up the holes in the things you swore you knew

Home 03:20
you hold my hope with such callous repose so I coated my throat in sounds we'd both know there was a home, there was a home there was a home brittle as bone, thicker than stone where could it go? I buried my tongue and cleaned out my lungs what arrogant love leaves me holding a gun cause I had a home I had a home but I only see the washing of hands washing of hands clean of me so what am I to do with myself shaking like a bird on the ground skyward striving carries me down what does it mean to love and hold loose cause I never knew I never knew

How does it taste Mouthfuls of lines always going untraced It's the compromise you make for wasting time And for wasted time I made a plan digging holes in the wall with my arm Spitting curses at no one at all Turning from me you said "Let it be, It will be, let it be" Baby don't change your mind on me Strung out on need and pleading to speak I couldn't see, I could not see Such a bold line between you and I You made a child, no, I made a child, out of me What an amazing thing to be the reason for your own defeat I saved a sound for times like these The fear of a cage repeats what a meaningless scene What a meaningless thing to be Baby don't change your mind on me

How it Goes 03:45
what a way to make a point to take and anoint my head with all this noise I made such a terrible mistake thinking I could stay awake in such a tranquilizing place What was it you said again? "This is not an end. It's not something you forget." well don't get mad if it seems like I'm laughing 'cause it only seems to get funnier in retrospect cause morning falls making fools of us all I was drunk with all my need and I think I just need to sleep it off so is that how it goes? that I am the lowest burning coal the heat you need until you don't baby, that's just how it goes and that's what you get for trying to tame your neediness and make a lens out of it so don't you even begin don't you even…

What I Want 04:25
so one final cadence for all my attempts at righting wrongs patience for patience the trading went on and on and on and on we were just children when I was an anchor, a psalm buried in buttons I looked for you under the stalks oh that was all I could want you were not awake then to see the hesitation in my arm your head under a blanket I turned my face to the wall what a difference it must make to quote a simple phrase and see it all to gather up the weight, gather up the weight and let it fall but I want it all, I want it all so one final cadence for all of my reaching and want peace to the evening peace like the morning will come when your blood is heating and pulse it is beating like a drum peace she will find you when all of my reaching is gone and that is all I could want
