Flora is fragile, sometimes we sever it
Trust is a loose thread
Friendship is delicate
Down, down I can feel you slipping
You told me you were really living
It was just like in the movies
It was just like on TV
It was just like you remember
It was just like in your dreams
One was a spider holding your heartstrings
Another was broken, rolling and crying out
So you dug a tunnel away from a cold glow
I should whittle you out

They say don’t worry all the time
They say don’t worry you’ll be fine
Sometimes the world just falls away
Sometimes the plan’s already made
All the bridges, all the lovers
Don’t they know our days are numbered
You’re falling in and out of love
You say you bruise easy enough
Sometimes the fear gets to your head
Some things are better left unsaid
Watch as it all falls away
As the whole world falls apart
Forget all the plans you’ve made
Cut them all out of your heart

Grief tourists on the internet
Everybody wants to be a part of something
Dark tourists on the toxic ground
Everybody wants to watch the eruption
Doom scrolling on the internet
Clawing out of my skin I am jumping
Closing windows to the poison air
It’s just everything at once all exploding
When the smoke rolled in we were still and calm
Everybody wanted to feel brave and strong
When the smoke came in we were swallowed up
Everybody wanted to watch the fall

Got Quiet

Caught up in the habit dreaming
Of a vessel view
We could get out of town or something
For a week or two
Sky is clearer, grass is greener
Air is always dry
I got noise and you got quiet
For a little while
We could drown it all out
Almost
Quiet

New sun now set
Keep waking, keep thinking
Is all there is just another and another
My mind made up
Of little flowers for you
And little crosses for me
Deep sound, all wave
Crash again and again
On the coastline, on the shore
This life keeps giving
Can I take anymore?
Keep giving
Keep taking

Call it the past, call it a memory
Call it a fountain, call it a smooth sea
I was a small thing, I had a heart
Here in the future, we’re falling apart
Smaller we grow while everything moves
Call it the future, call it a timeline
Call it whatever, whatever you feel like
I miss the old skin, I miss feeling new
I miss the fresh kiss, I miss being you
Are you feeling elastic?

Got the focus and the fever
Hear your voice shake when you siver
But I still wait for you sometimes
When the sun hits just right
It feels cool like water
And it tastes like honey
And it smells like money
Yeah the price is just right
And you don’t think you could let it go
You’re just chasing a feeling
Now the light fades for the season
And your bones ache when the trees bend
But I still wait for you sometimes

Everything you know
Everyone you’ve been
Take a nice deep breath
Let it settle in
Everyone you’ve known
All the things you’ve been
Take a nice deep breath
Before you scatter to the wind
When you breath in do you feel sure
When you breathe in, when you’re breathing
It’s a slow burner, It’s a quiet aim
It’s a sad story
Nobody stays the same
