Nothing Love

December came and you made it cold
Despite me trying to start a fire with snow at your window
It takes time i know there’s just so much we can gain
A day a grain a page and a spoonful
Have you fed us enough today, here’s my nothing love
It’s been better when spring came the sun is high
Though to let go does not make you simple
Ceasefire we’re breathing but did it to your head
Goodwill could block all the thunder
Have i fed us enough, here’s my nothing love
Uh oh. oh well. is that my heart that got dropped on the floor
Uh oh don’t be so guarded, so long’s your hands are tied
Forget about it
What d’ya say could you give me that again you’re mumbling babe
Do what you say keeping your word ain’t so easy
The years of definitely maybe you lost me there babe
Playing god talking loud like a crazy
Have i fed us enough gonna offer the scraps in your pocket
They say you’re pretty and right most days
Here’s my nothing love, nothing trying
Is that my heart that got dropped on the floor where you started
Oh no don’t be so guarded
So long’s you hands are tied you got your reasons
So close forget about it

Barcelona

Honey and sugar like mere bread and water
It’s all i knew
Dreaming the sweet on you soon someday when
I have no clue
Dorner me against the wall
Let them hear these empty hall
Cutting wish to watch your eyes
Steal me through your years to spy
I’ll be waiting in Barcelona
Play like a child
He said always remember the maids i knew
Somewhere between truth and dare
It’s just good faith and follow thru
Push me up against your mind
Let me hear the things you find
Peel the curtain call the light
Promise you’ll drink every lin
I’ll be waiting in barcelona
I’ll be dreaming behind the cinder
I’l be waiting in barcelona
I’ll be dreaming

Sylvette I couldn’t find you
You’re stone I’m breath you breathe me out
Like a slip of a tongue in a crowd
I lean into your hairline
My tension in your chin down eyes up
A dare to my brush in forty tries
It shines a gap into your eyes
You can see can you see if i’m alive
You run circles around my lies
You can see can you see through every line
Papa said, “put your tail up”
This minute and for a while
Papa said, “put your tail up”
Sylvette I couldn’t find you
But i think i need you now
What a fight every turn
Step back from the fault line
You wrap me up and show me how
You’re a dare to my brush in forty tries
You’re blinding me inside
What you see can you see
You tame my every lie
You can see you can see thru

He was taken, want to understand
Caught the light and gone to look for the upper hand
And the moment gone and every is the only one
Behind the terror
Where the gentle lives
Breathing heavy always counting on the scars
And open wounds
She knows
Those lilies and nightlight
Here we go
She changes everything
“Come here, come here
Am i enough? What is enough?”
Reaching out now trying to understand
How to know which one allows the time and second chance
With better luck where every piece but nothing all at one
A storm that came that gave us wind to sail

Awhile you’ve been here
With gaps and waiting
Missed a couple of summer
And i know it’s hard to tear yourself away
Yea i hear the ovation for you
But I catch you with my black light
Still it’s easy to give yourself away
Her hair goes on and on my god! this house goes on
You think there’s plenty locks to not miss much
Then you’re wrong
Steady hand to help this day while gravity plays
Fall fall… just walk it off
You could be here with history waiting
Keep still for a moment
‘Cause i know you and all you want to take
I see you through your loops and endings
Sweet wreckage awaiting
It’s hard but i will walk away

Bet your life I know by now it’s hit & miss with me i got backfire
One takes all Russian doll but hesitation tiny she knows better
You’re a callbox empty full of chains
Shiny, combed, buttoned up your claim to fame
Cold chin staged urgent holiday
Backwards straight-line never did looks the same
Turnstile hostile temperamental
We lined up for your blows
Arms up gun point my anger hollowed
Can’t feel the quiet it’s time to go
One day it’s December cold then
Suddenly she’s nineteen project Fester
Danger mode robot bold
He called you tameless black-eye bitch
Reset her
But he builds up and she builds out they’re not the same
The token doll inside you says done well by your name
Put it down the street fight’s out just walk away
Sober sedated just another day
Must now don’t ever good enough to make a difference
Stop your crying aren’t i good enough
Kill the confidence just keep silent suddenly

Crumpled collar met my eye so glorious and trite
Hust an impression
Old suit three years too wise
Leads to crumpled temper steal my smile
Sometimes miss the danger sound. Oh lover
Empty-handed show and tell another sacrifice
A lost confession of my muse too wise
Leads to empty bedroom take my life
Miss the burning blood so bright remember?
Hold my tongue and hold on tight
Lights across my eyes this is my living
This whole of us the hollow hours
Missing body heat so wild. Oh lover
You introduced me to your war
I learned a lot keep folding it in
Take care of the dark
Knife between the roses on the table top
The blood i kept and promised
Like a dream come true
You’re a dream come true
Crumpled collar met my eye
So glorious and trite
Just an impression
Old suit three years too wise
Leads to crumpled temper steal my smile
Sometimes miss the danger sound. Oh lover

Mercy Street

Looking down on empty streets, all she can see
Are the dreams all made solid
Are the dreams all made real
All of the buildings, all of those cars
Were once just a dream
In somebody's head
She pictures the broken glass, she pictures the steam
She pictures a soul With no leaks
Lets take the boat out Wait until darkness
Let's take the boat out
Nowhere in the corridors of pale green and grey
Nowhere in the suburbs
In the cold light of day
There in the midst of it so alive and alone
Words support like bone
Dreaming of mercy st
Wear your inside out
Dreaming of mercy
In your daddy('s arms again
Dreaming of mercy st
'Swear they moved that sign
Dreaming of mercy
In your daddy's arms

Waiting for your exit so there’s no between
It’s too late spider cracks thirteen
Pain like stone but water soft and can corrode
Can always use better men to move my mountain slow
Semi the fire semi the beast
Semi the lie semi believe
Half of the more, stay put as a crier
Half of the creed, get good as a liar
Charm and smile birds and bees a good disease
Towel’s dry, ready - cry and keep
Brother witness tragic courtroom breakable
He may turn into you but i will keep it slow
Semi the you, semi the he
Semi the i, semi the beast
Half of the more, stay put as a crier
Half of the seed, semi believe

Almost Time

Well it’s almost time
Maybe you’ll get lucky
At least in my mind
No answers for I know I’d lose
But i can say ‘least I tried so I can hide
Funny how after all it’s unlearning
That gives lesions a cure
Too many broken words and carpet burns
To cope as a child terrified
No where to hide. hide inside
We’ve gotten so good at fill in the blank
Make sense of the night
April and august they go hand in hand
And put up a fight
Funny how after all it’s unlearning
That gives lesions a cure too many
Broken words to cope terrified
Well it’s almost time maybe you’ll get lucky
At least in my mind
No answers for I know i’d lose
But i can say ‘least I tried ‘cause i can’t hide
