i said your eyes are devastatingly beautiful, they were
we were lost in each others presence
you said sometimes because some eyes actually see you for you
you thought you saw me
i thought i saw you
twilight hindsight
blinded thoughts of your elegance
blinded thoughts
smoke and rearview mirrors, reflections then of your elegance
i never noticed since you pulled those sheets over our heads
rooftop caved in from the weight of all the nights we'd thought we'd seen
or ever would see
we never did see
the line from eternal sunshine, you said i had in my own head too
couldn't believe it
reading each other's minds
twilight hindsight
blinded thoughts of your elegance
blinded thoughts
smoke and rearview mirrors reflections then of your elegance
i never noticed since you pulled those sheets over our heads
i wondered if i'd found my clementine
is she right inside this bed?
i said come with me
you said it's never easy
i said i had to go
you said you didn't know
i see you in twilight hindsight...
i said goodbye to your right eye
i left and walked alone
i didn't want to...

Send It

pictures ripped from frames
pages turning blank now they’re blank
pieces forced into place
never fit the same way
will they fit?
boxes closed with tape
send it all away all away
hold on to what should stay
memories all erased all erased
broken pieces forced into place
never fit the same way
will they fit?
it’s boxing day so
make them fit
it's boxing day so
will they fit
they’re gonna fit
today is for getting rid of baggage
weighing down and closing off the mind
throwing out all the toxic feelings
forget the past, it’s past, its over
if it ever mattered, it doesn't anymore
on boxing day the glass gets shattered
Is it worth holding on to?

tennessee
i see you twice a year
and we drink ourselves to sleep
wasted on amphetamines
so we have some time to keep
always you i sing for
always you i think of
when i sing to crowds
but tonight its you i'll sing to
and its you i'll dream of
when i sing you back to sleep
tennessee
i saw you once this year
and you drank yourself to sleep
carried you back to our hotel room
but you left before morning came
i suppose it's always the drugs that close
the doors we think we need
tennessee
oh why did you leave me?
now you're cold as cold can be
always you i sing for
always you i think of
when i sing to crowds
but tonight its you i'll sing to
and its you i'll dream of
when i sing you back to sleep
Always you i sing for
Always you i think of
when i sing to crowds
but tonight its you i'll sing to
and its you i'll dream of
when i sing you back to sleep
I'll only see you in my dreams
I'll never sing you back to sleep
tennessee
i won't see you next year
so i'll drink myself to sleep

These Fragile Bones

a double edged sword known as solitude
swipes at my world with bitter force
it severs all the ties that hold me down
no wounds are healed like they ever could.
it's just these bones...
these fragile bones
is there nothing left to say? my lonesome decays
it’s not you, it’s me, my apologies.
it’s these fragile bones once lifeless and crushed
now cautiously rest with one eye peeled
it's just these bones
these fragile bones they tell me
these fragile bones
a double edged sword known as solitude
swipes at my world with bitter force
it’s these fragile bones once lifeless and crushed
now cautiously rest with one eye peeled
it's just these bones
these fragile bones they tell me
these fragile bones

Whirlwind

|
spiral like a vortex
that's lost in the eye of the storm
wrapped up in your blanket
to keep me safe and warm
to keep us safe and warm
you
you
you’re all i think about
you’re like a tornado
spinning silk from above
weaving me in your web
in this whirlwind they call love
in this whirlwind we call love
you
you
you’re all i think about
