Thought into my systems Found it on the ground Figured: do I like? Thought of you right now Figured: too much systems Thought it’d do right now Feel the walk it slams you Feel the walk of stances Feel the walk it slams you Fall and walk of stances Fall and walk it slams you Fall

Mercy and grace Follow me Savin’ me (When?) Savin’ me Savin’ me (When?) Never away Leave it away Run away Hold on backwards Hold on safe Fell today Fell too much but I’m ok

I slept with anger on my name I thought you’d knew but that’s ok I made my bed but you won’t lay I felt it cover once: My pain In bed with anger I won’t lay I thought you’d help but that’s ok It’s like you knew that I won’t lay

Obscene 01:38
Obscene like every night I’m longing for answers I’ve leaned from back left and right Not always the banter Not always the banter I’ve asked for a second time I’m longing for answers I stood from the left to right Can’t honestly dance here

Milk and thistle, and substance or some other Soothing mine, and theirs, and others Soft it felt to touch and cover needles sin and me Stuck between our hands, directed by who points between Look at you and you at me Danced our sights without deceit I’m lying in the night Laying now without our covers, heat bound us without a trouble Loosen grips the minds of brothers fight and spar and seethe Writhing and fit with something awful Born with anger, and something true It held onto a midday swig of truth, toiling and swirling into and onto me Flesh and fabric woven one again or two and... And well two more or: how many? Always counting: how many? Always counting: how many? Writ with fever, fit with something awful, I’m fit with it too Hoarded only like a sight of nothing more or less Kept alive by scent, touch and more too Left alone for nothing more I cannot keep up with sharp minds It is difficult to be conditioned I cannot keep up with quick wit Driving hearts gas leak I cannot keep up with high speeds Broked-down Low energy Evicted I see you

Blessed 02:31
Carried steps Found I’m blessed Held your hand Carried steps Found I’m blessed I held your hand You held my hand Carried steps I found I’m blessed You’d thought it would be It rather would see Carried your hand I found I’m blessed You gave it to me, you gave it to me Found I’m checked in two I gave it some thought and after you

Life after life Segments untethered Guess I just died Went onto something Found out it’s not true I guess I’m beginning the end like I knew I skipped all the steps And left it unto I thought of you asking if you’d come too But I’d known better than ask again Humiliation Not beginning and end It starts somewhere I’d thought it you I guessed it’d mean I’ll see it through Listenin’ to the ways you scare me at night Guess I’ll only be here this time Felt to answer empty when Gave me hearts under your skin Begging after once in a while Thought I’d ask for a smile Never understood it then Ways you’d left me opening Gaped up my heart Closed it in two Something I’d recognize Something for you I kept understanding Life after life Segments untethered Guess I just died Went onto something Found out it’s not true

Simple 05:22
I came and I changed it Won’t I come? Won’t I come? I kept on my hands Won’t I come? Won’t I come? It came and I changed it Won’t I come? Won’t I come? All these second times it’s careful to know Careful to know Won’t you soothe it Known to you I come too soon I long to do I’m sorry you... I’m sorry it’s simple I’m sorry it’s simple Sorry I’m too simple and agreed Sorry I’m too simple and I agree Never meant for this to be unseen Savor it would I like to be Thought another line: It won’t be Thought another way it won’t receive Kept it under wraps I can’t see Coverin’ up my mind it won’t be Anything but other than that’s it Half the lie that lies that I can’t see I see It gave me a laugh hallowed be It gave me a laugh hallowed be It gave me a laugh hallowed be It gave me a laugh hallowed be It gave me a laugh hallowed be Be be be Seen: I’d like to Hear: It gave in I’d like to change Well I’d like to be heard Well I’d like to be known just like you Just like you Just like you Just like you Just like you

Cold chills in desert sun Watch my best friend die in a dream Watch my best friend weep on live in a dream Die tonight in hell with me Heat on heat no cover I think I’m one month sober: and that’s a good joke Spilled my future on the carpet on purpose Shrunk my mental space for fun it wasn’t worth it Thought we might’ve looked up at the same time Told you the truth and I lied at the same time You knew that they know and I couldn’t show The fear I had of losing my mind

about

Foreword by Rick Weaver:

I consider this the real world. And this is the way it goes, the other way around in the platform’s mirror. Up the stairs to shut the door, so to speak. What happened was a family matter, private, unknown to you or the record label, from a place where the listener may or may not belong.

When you pulled in your final breath of air, you sucked the life out of the room. Then came the exhale with confetti. The long draw. What are we celebrating? Some minor or major victory, maybe, or perhaps a resolution of an unknown conflict. Instead of a handshake, a smile and a wave over yonder behind spall.

After last week's service, the director asked how my recovery was coming along. He lives two houses down. I expect an invitation to join his entourage soon. I have at least a thousand questions I'd like to ask first. The list grows, I go mum. Fearful of failure and silence, I refuse to answer the door, in case he comes back around to follow up. If this doesn't pan out, I have very few options left.

The door opens. Now the director, hair as long as his height, leans down and cocks a look at my eyes. A wide and honest grin spreads out from the bounds of spall. Wide enough to feel the draft. Honest enough to plead my guilt. He trips over his curls with every step down the stairs, and tumbles down into what exactly.
